Assembling Your E-Bike

1. Read all of the instructions carefully. Be familiar with the proper operation of all items.
2. This quick guide is intended to list the steps needed to assemble your bike with some mechanical skills. It is not a complete manual or training. If you do not feel comfortable or lack some of the skills to assemble it yourself, reach out to a cyclist friend, a local bike mechanic or one of our support technicians for guidance.
3. Our QA mechanics have assembled and tested your bike beforehand.
4. To assemble your bike, work on a clean area with enough space to maneuver.
5. If installed, remove the battery from the bike to start the assembly。
6. Inspect the bike completely to be sure no damage occurred during shipping.
7. The kickstand is designed to support the bicycle only. Not the rider mounted。
8. You can adjust your saddle position and the tilt on your handlebar items for comfort.
9. Check all screws and parts are tight and properly fixed. We recommend a pre-trip inspection before your first rides

Installing Your Handlebars

1. Place the handlebar in the handlebar mount being careful with the wires.
2. Face the mounting brackets on the front end of the mount with the round edges facing outward. Adjust the handlebar angle to your comfortable riding posture.
3. Secure the mounting brackets with four screws. (4mm allen wrench with 6N strength)
4. Verify your front tire lines up with your headset.
5. Check whether all headset items are tight.
   

Installing Your Front Wheel

1. Insert the axle into the wheel hub as shown. Add the Slim Spacer on the LEFT side (Brake Disk), the Wide Spacer and one washer on the RIGHT side.
   

2. Insert the front wheel in between the front fork on the bike. Be sure to align the disc between the brake caliper as shown in Figure 2. Balance the length of the axel at the left and right side of the fork to make room for the washers and nuts.
   

3. Add washer and adjust nut on the two ends of the axel and hand turn until snug.

4. Using your wrench, tighten each side alternatively until snug (you might need to secure the opposite nut slightly so the whole axle doesn’t turn).

5. Now tighten each nut putting your weight into the wrench. Your front wheel is now installed.

6. Adjustment Nut needs to be very tight, be sure to retighten after your first couple rides.

Installing Your Front Fender and Headlight

1. Place the headlight bracket in front of the fork gantry. Put the fender’s top bracket behind the fork gantry. Thread the screw in sequence through the headlight bracket, the fork gantry and the fender bracket and secure with a washer and screw nut.
2. Connect the headlight cable with the wire coming out from the downtube.
3. Connect the fender holder with the bracket on the fork leg and secure with screw and nut.
   

Installing Your Pedals

1. Warning: Incorrect installation will cause damage. Please read the instructions and watch our videos if needed.

2. Identify the Left and Right markings on the pedals. They can only be installed in their respective side.
   a. L is for the Left Pedal and it goes on the Left Crank Arm.
   b. R is for the Right pedal and it goes on the Right Crank Arm (Chain Side).
   

3. Sitting on your bike the pedals go on the Left and Right side respectively.

4. Keep the pedal Horizontal while hand screwing to get the thread started. Then Use your 15mm wrench to tighten them.

5. Both pedals tighten towards the front of the bike. The left pedal is reverse threaded to allow this.

6. The pedals need to be very tight (at least 25-35N.m torque), be sure to retighten after your first couple rides.

2. The small LED light on the charger in RED indicates it is in charge; The small LED light on the charger in GREEN indicates it is fully charged.
3. Insufficient charging will not influence the battery lifecycle. AVOIDING deep discharge is helpful to protect the battery and extend its lifecycle.
4. Pay attention to check whether the surface temperature of the battery case rises too high during charging. It is FORBIDDEN to cover the battery during charging.
5. Due to high temperature in summer time, it is NOT advisable to charge it immediately after riding. In winter, it is FORBIDDEN to charge the battery in environment below 0℃. You are recommended to charge it in room temperature.
6. If the battery will not be used for a long period, take it off from the bike and discharge its capacity to 60%-80% for stock. Disconnect it from the charger and place it in a dry, ventilated place without direct sunlight. In order to maintain a long lifecycle, it is recommended to charge the battery every two months.
