USE OF THE BRAKES

To activate a brake, pull the respective lever in the direction of the handlebars
– RT lever = rear brake;
– LT lever = front brake.

HAZARD
Danger of falls and accidents.

  • A too strong activation of the brake may cause the block of the wheels and lead to slipping or overturning
  • it is necessary to familiarize with the activation of the brakes. Start by pedalling slowly and activating the brake levers with moderation
  • carry out these braking exercises on flat stretches
  • dose the brakes and activate the two levers simultaneously
  • pay attention while activating the lever of the front brake; the presence of sand, gravel, etc.
    may make the wheel slip, causing a fall.

NOTE: avoid long trips as long as the braking system is not run-in. Once the braking system has been run-in, a very high braking force will be available.
NOTE: 65% (approximately) of the total braking force is obtained from the front brake. The maximum braking performance is obtained by activating the two levers simultaneously.

5.3 USING THE GEARS (PINION)
ATTENTION
Shift gear only after having relieved pressure on the pedals, to put less strain on the gearbox and have smoother gear shift.
If the pressure on the pedals is excessive, the gear is not shifted, relieve the pressure on the pedals to shift gear.
NOTE: The gearbox must be run-in for the first 1000 km and the passage from one gear to another may not be smooth. Successively the gearbox will operate with smooth  and regular gear shifts.

Rotate the knob (1) to shift gear:
– rotating it towards “A” the gear is higher; pedalling resistance decreases and speed is lower, but climbs can be faced more easily.
– Rotating the knob (1) towards “B”, pedalling resistance increases and a higher speed is obtained, it is used on flat routes.
– The gear in use is indicated by the arrow (2).
NOTE: the gears can be shifted when the bike is running and when at a standstill and also by pedalling backwards.

– By rotating the knob (1) multiple gear shifts can be made passing from gear “1” to gear “4” directly both upshifting and downshifting, to prevent too much strain on the  gearbox, relieve pressure on the pedals.
– When shifting gears, a brief jolt on the crank may be felt. This is caused by the introduction delay of the pawl into the next notch. This phenomenon cannot be eliminated,  but does not cause damage to the gearbox.
NOTE: Additional information regarding the gearbox can be found in the gearbox user manual supplied with the bike.

5.4 USING THE BAGGAGE HOLDER (AMO XT)
