Congratulations on purchasing a Spark Bike. You have chosen a bike that will give you
a superb riding experience. "
This manual will help you install and keep your bike in its best shape ensuring that you
will enjoy every ride.
Warning
Before your first use, check that all components are properly installed and properly
functioning. Test ride your bike until you are confident that you are familiar with its power
modes, stopping function, and overall riding process. Neglecting to do so may cause
serious injury.
Spark Bikes recommends that you always wear a helmet for your own safety. Use front
and rear lights after sunset for increased visibility.
For your safety
!
If this is your first time riding an electric bike, it is highly recommended that you ride in
an open area and set your power assist level to low. Once you feel confident operating
your new bike, increase the power assist gradually. If for any reason you lost control,
apply the brake levers immediately to disconnect the motor power and stop the bike. Do
not try to stop your bike using your feet.
!
Caution
The pedal assist sensor is located at the left side of the bottom bracket where the pedal
arm is mounted. It activates the motor when you move the pedals and will cause a
sudden burst forward. Keeping your hands over the brake levers is good practice.
It is recommended that you perform regular maintenance and tune-ups to ensure that
your bike always performs well. Seek the help of a professional bike mechanic
whenever required.

Cleaning and Maintenance:
•
It is good practice to clean your bike after a wet ride and store in a dry place to avoid
rust.
•
When cleaning or servicing your bike, always remove the battery.
•
To increase the life of your bike, regularly lubricate your chain, shifter, and rear
sprocket.
Tips
•
Lube your chain frequently every 100 km using a special bike lube to maximize
performance and get a smooth ride.!
•
Constantly check your bike components for wear and tear. If any found, replace
immediately to avoid injury and further damaging your bike.!
•
Constantly check the bolts to ensure they are all tightened. This is essential especially
when planning on riding through rough terrain.!
•
Regularly check your brake pads. If they are damaged, cracked, or have less than
8mm of thickness they need to be replaced.!
•
Reducing pressure on the pedals while shifting gears increases the life of the chain,
chainring, and sprocket as the motor places major stress on the gears.!
•
Ensure that your tires are inflated with appropriate air pressure. It is recommended
that air pressure is 30-40 psi and 25-30 psi for fat tires. However, this may vary
depending on the riding conditions and your weight.
Legal Requirements:
Electrical bicycles are regulated, and regulations vary depending on the country/state/
province/city you live in. It is your responsibility to inform yourself of the local law
requirement and comply with it. You may contact local authorities, electrical bicycle
shops or bicycle associations to acquire further information on legal requirements.
It is important to keep a record of your serial number as this will be required by the
police in case of theft.
