Operating Notice
RIGHT-HAND and LEFT-HAND sides are determined by the bike handle; Right-hand corresponds to the right handle.
Preparing Your Frame
Before you begin, ensure that you have removed the original crankset and bottom bracket from the bicycle frame. This includes any bearings, bottom bracket from the bicycle frame. This includes any bearings, bottom bracket ups, inserts, and/or adapters that might have been fitted.
Clean up any grease and/or debris from your frame’s bottom bracket shell and wipe off any excess dirt from your frame around the areas where the drive unit and its peripherals will be installed.
Mounting Options
This product can be mounted in any position around the bicycle frame’s bottom bracket shell that supports the drivetrain’s movement without obstruction. The chainring assembly together with your bicycle chain must be able to move freely and not come into contact with other components or areas on the bicycle frame.
Warning
The motor body must be supported against either the bicycle frame or supporting structures in order to prevent the motor body from movement during use.
Adjusting the Width of the Bottom Bracket
In order for this product to fit on various different widths of bottom brackets, there are several spacers that come with the kit. These spacers are designed to provide the bottom brackets with necessary spacing between the product brackets.
Please note that the spacers can be adjusted to accommodate different chain lines as needed.
Before you begin, ensure that you have removed the original crank set and bottom bracket from your frame. This includes any bearings and/or cups that might have been fitted previously. To install your CYC kit, you will need a clean bottom bracket shell on your frame.

Assembly Instruction

1. Install the chainring assembly to the motor unit.
2. The chainring assembly splines onto the gear of the motor unit.
3. The retaining cap can be threaded on with the provided tool. Please take note of the tightening direction.
4. Insert the motor so that the back of the motor sits closest to the drive side of the bottom bracket.
5. Ensure that the motor is mounted from the right-hand side of the bicycle frame.
6. Take note of the clearance between the chainstay of the bike and the motor unit. Sometimes the motor unit will need to be spaced out to additionally create space for the chainring and chainstay.
7. The Photon motor is designed for an effective BB width of 83mm. Thus, the required length needed for a 68mm or 73mm bottom bracket needs to be taken up by the provided bottom bracket spacers. You can add a 0.5mm spacer if needed to compensate for bike tolerance.
8. When inserting the left BB cup with spacers, please ensure that the A-frame support is added to the left BB cup first so that it sits against the tool side of the BB cup. Then place the A-frame in the cutout of the motor housing while inserting the left BB cup into the bottom bracket. Tighten by hand only. If done correctly, the A-frame support should be flush with the cutout of the motor body.
9. Place the 8mm & 9mm spacers in the remaining open space of the motor cover and thread the two M4 screws through them and into the body. Securely tighten these screws.
10. Pivot the motor up and securely tighten the BB cup of the motor system. Add the mounting support plate to protect the frame if needed.
11. Take the spindle and insert it through the motor assembly until the step on the shaft is in contact with the motor. We recommend adding grease on the bearing to have better waterproofing.
12. Thread the lock ring onto the spindle, with step on the lock ring facing towards the bike. Tighten by hand and then tighten the screw on the lock ring.
13. Ensure that the spindle can rotate freely.
14. Add spindle spacers up to the indicated line. We can provide recommended sizes, but small adjustments are needed due to variances in BB sizes.
15. Install the crankarms and crankarm bolts and tighten accordingly.
16. When tightening the crankarms, ensure that the cranks touch the step of the spindle of the drive side and the spindle spacers on the non-drive side so that there is no remaining gap.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE

You are advised to regularly maintain, clean, and check the status of the bike and motor system as dirt will accumulate throughout the rides and additional strain will be taken by the drivetrain due to the powerful motor system. We recommend that users should inspect the bike and motor condition before and after each ride.
Disconnect all power supplies from the drive unit before starting any work (e.g., inspection, repair of the bike, maintenance work etc,) on the bike, transportation, or storage. Unintentional activation of the drive could lead to serious damage or injury.
Never reach into the chains, gears, or any moving parts while the bike is still in operation.
As the drive unit can get hot after use, be sure to give it some time to cool down before performing any maintenance.
Store the bike in a cool and dry place, sheltered from direct sunlight and potential rain.
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the drive unit. The drive unit may only be repaired and maintained by qualified experts and only replaced with original spare parts. This will ensure that the safety/warranty of the drive unit is maintained.
The active moving parts (e.g., chain, gear, speed reducer etc.) should be regularly lubricated to maintain desired performance. In case of any abnormal activity, stop using the drive unit immediately and contact your CYC dealer.
Do not attempt to replace the product parts with the parts that have been found at a local bicycle store as the materials used in the drive unit are specifically designed for their purposes.
All bolts, nuts and screws are required to be tightened to the correct torque, if there is anything loose, stay off the bike. Torque specifications for each bolt and nut is provided.
