YOU MUST ALWAYS WEAR AN APPROVED BICYCLE HELMET WHEN RIDING AN ELECTRIC BIKE.

PEDAL ASSISTANCE

WHAT IS PEDAL ASSISTANCE?
The bike is equipped with 9 levels of electronic pedal assistance. As you pedal, the motor will assist you and enhance your pedalling effort. This will allow you to pedal much further and faster but use much less energy and effort. It is also a great feature when climbing a hill, as the motor will help to make any climb easy.

TURNING PEDAL ASSISTANCE ON AND OFF

  • When you turn on the power to the display, the pedal assistance will automatically default to level 0. By using the ‘PLUS’ and ‘MINUS’ buttons, you can increase or decrease the level of assistance. You can turn off the assistance completely by pressing the ‘MINUS’ button until the level of assistance is at level “0”. This will allow you to use the lights and functions of the display, but ride the bicycle without any pedal assistance from the motor.
  • Pedal assist levels 1-5 are meant to be used more on flat roads or paths, the higher levels (6-9) are more powerful and meant for hills, headwinds, or heavy loads.
  • If you prefer to ride slowly, it would be more comfortable for you to ride at a lower power level. If you prefer to ride faster, then you should increase the power level.

DERAILLEUR FUNCTIONS

  • Your bike is equipped with a Shimano Altus 8-speed derailleur.
  • Please choose the proper gear to match the riding terrain.
  • The use of a proper gear along with pedal assist or conventional power will enhance your riding experience
  • We recommend checking your derailleur functions at least once a month.
  • If you are not capable of adjusting the derailleur your local bike store can help.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHILE USING THE PEDAL ASSIST & ON DEMAND THROTTLE

  • Since the motor is assisting you, you will easily reach higher speeds than you might be used to. We recommend that you ride the bike in a minimal-traffic area at first to become more comfortable with it.
  • The operation of the pedal assistance depends on the speed at which the pedals are rotated and your cycling speed.
  • The electric motor speed is limited to a speed of 32 Km/h (20 mph). This means that as you exceed this speed electrical assistance stops and returns when the speed returns to 32km/h ( 20 mph )
  • The level of pedal assistance will affect the battery range. Battery range is dependent on many factors which are measured under average conditions. It is dependent on, but not limited to, rider weight, speed, elevation, tyre pressure, wind, start-stop frequency, and outside temperature.
    • ATTENTION! Remember that acceleration will be much quicker with pedal assistance.
    • ATTENTION! Make sure to turn off the power when walking next to, mounting, or dismounting the bike.
    • ATTENTION! Hold both brakes when stationary.

BATTERY & CHARGING

BATTERY RANGE

How far can I travel on my electric bike?
The total distance you can travel on your electric bike is not an easy amount to specify. The range depends on many different factors including, but not limited to:

  • Total Weight (weight of the bike + rider + cargo)
  • Resistance (wind, tire pressure, speed, road conditions and altitude)
  • Outside Temperature
  • The level of pedal assistance and throttle usage
  • The condition of the battery (battery capacity decreases as the battery ages)

Battery Capacity
Batteries are often compared based on capacity – Amp hours (Ah). However, a comparison based on capacity alone does not properly depict a battery since the performance of a battery pack is also based on battery voltage (V). The best way to compare battery performance is by looking at the amount of energy that can be used in watt-hours (Wh). Wh takes into account both the capacity of the battery, as well as the average voltage during discharge. Simply put, the higher the V/Ah, the higher the Wh range!

Watt hours calculation:
Battery voltage (V) x Amp-hours (Ah) = Watt hours (Wh)

iGO-eXtreme 3.1 Electric-Fat-Bike-fig- \(8\)

DISCONNECTING & REMOVING THE BATTERY
  • On the top-right side of the downtube is the battery lock.
  • This lets you lock/unlock the battery pack of the bike.

To Lock:

  • Insert the bottom of the battery into its receptacle on an angle as shown while pushing the top of the battery into the lock until an audible click is heard.
  • Ensure the battery is secure by attempting to gently turn the key in the lock. When installed correctly there should be no ‘give’ (the key will not turn).

To Unlock:
Insert the key into the lock and turn 1/4 turn clockwise.

ATTENTION!

  • Ensure the battery is fully secure and locked in place when installing to avoid it ejecting while riding.
  • Always remove the key while riding.
CHARGING THE BATTERY
  • The battery can be charged both on and off of the bike.
  • Please identify your charging port (figure 16.1).
  • First, plug the charger male plug into the battery, then plug the charger 110-volt plug into your wall outlet. (Do not use an extension for 110 volt.)
  • The indicator on the charger will light green for a few seconds and if a charge is necessary, the LED will turn red. The battery is fully charged when the battery indicator LED becomes green.
  • Unplug the charger from the wall first, and then from the battery.

Battery Status
Press and hold the button (figure 16.2)

  • Red Needs Charge
  • Green 50%
  • Blue 100%

ATTENTION!

  • When the battery is completely depleted you must charge it immediately. If the cells are left depleted for a long period, they may become irreparably damaged.
  • The battery will sustain permanent damage if not used for a long period (ex: Winter storage). SEE PAGE 18 Make sure to charge the battery once a month during this time.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW ABOUT YOUR BATTERY

  • DO NOT open your battery as it will void the warranty.
  • The battery should be recycled properly at the end of its life.
  • The performance of the battery will decrease at low temperatures. The ideal operating temperature is approx. -10°C to 50°C. The guideline is that the capacity will decrease by 1% at every 1°C of temperature drop.
  • The battery is intended to be charged when the ambient temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and 30°C (86°F). Never charge the battery when ambient temperatures are outside this range.
  • Under ideal conditions, the battery pack can be recharged approximately 750 times. The performance will slowly decrease over time and eventually will need to be replaced.
  • For long-term storage see storage.
  • Use ONLY the supplied charger.
    • ATTENTION! Make sure to only charge the battery in a dry, well-ventilated area.
    • ATTENTION! The socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
    • ATTENTION! Unplug the charger when the battery is fully charged, or when the charger is not in use.
    • ATTENTION! Only use a charger supplied or recommended by the manufacturer.

IMPORTANT BATTERY STORAGE INFORMATION
When not using your bike for periods exceeding one month please charge as follows:

  1. Before storage make sure that the battery is not charged more than 50% so that it will accept a periodic charge. (You cannot periodically charge a fully charged battery)
  2. Once every month you must attach the supplied battery charger and charge for no more than 15 minutes.
  3. Continue this procedure once a month until more frequent riding.

This process will make sure that your battery does not stay at a specific rate of charge for long periods.

  • ATTENTION! Please recycle your battery at an authorized recycling company in your area.
  • ATTENTION! Battery is not intended for use at elevations greater than 2000 m above sea level.
  • ATTENTION! Prolonged Exposure to UV Rays, Rain and the Elements May Damage the Enclosure Materials, Store Indoors When Not in Use

ADJUSTING YOUR ELECTRIC FAT BIKE

INSTALLING & ADJUSTING YOUR HANDLEBARS

  • Using the 5mm Allen key take off the 4 front bolts of the stem as shown in Figure 19.1
  • Place the handlebar in position on the stem and using a 5mm Allen key tighten the bolts as shown in figure 19.2. Make sure to attach all bolts one at a time in order from 1 to 4 as shown but don’t fully tighten until all bolts are installed (tighten to 5Nm – 6Nm)
  • The handlebar position can be altered by adjusting the angle of the stem. Using a 5mm Allen key loosen the bolt shown in Figure 19.3 Move the stem to the desired angle and then retighten the bolt (tighten to 13Nm)

ADJUSTING YOUR SADDLE POSITION
You can tilt the saddle to change the seating angle, as well as, slide it backward or forward (figure 20.1). To adjust the saddle, loosen the nut located on the underside of the saddle with an Allen key (figure 20.2). You will be able to move the saddle around to suit your preferred riding style. When you are done adjusting, make sure to retighten the nut.

ATTENTION!
Ensure that the safety marks for max. height written on the seat post is not visible when retightening the hex bolt.

ADJUSTING YOUR SEAT HEIGHT
Your seat height should be adjusted properly to ensure you get the most comfortable ride possible. The seat height is properly adjusted when your knee has a slight bend when sitting on the saddle with your foot on the pedal at its lowest position (figure 20.3). The seat height can be adjusted by loosening the lever on the seat tube clamp Figure 20.4. Make sure to retighten after adjustment.

INSTALLING FRONT LIGHT & FENDER
Full instructions for installing the light and front and rear fenders are shown in the installation video at: www.iGOelectric.com/buildmyextreme3.

iGO-eXtreme 3.1 Electric-Fat-Bike-fig- \(18\)

ATTENTION!
If you can put your feet flat on the ground while seated, your seat height is too low.

ALIGNING THE BRAKES
Your electric bike is equipped with a disc brake system. To properly adjust them you must first make sure that the brake disc is properly aligned within the brake caliper. To do this, loosen the top and bottom hex bolts (figure 22.1) with an Allen key. Then maneuver the brake with your hand so that the disc passes through the brake pads with minimal contact. Once the disc rotates through the brake freely, retighten the hex bolts and make sure that while tightening you maintain the alignment.

BRAKE BED IN PROCEDURE
Properly bedding in your brakes will increase the lifespan of the pads, reduce noise and increase the braking power. Before your first ride, perform this procedure to properly condition the brake pads and rotors.

  1. Accelerate to a medium speed (approx. 20 km/h), then firmly apply the brakes and reduce your speed to a walking pace. Repeat approximately 20 times.
  2. Accelerate to a higher speed (approx. 32 km/h), then firmly and quickly apply the brakes, reducing your speed to walking pace. Repeat approximately 10 times.
  3. Let the brakes cool before setting off on your first ride.

ADJUSTING HYDRAULIC DISC BRAKES

  • The hydraulic brake system on your iGO electric bike is self-adjusting, and will not require manual adjustment during normal operation.
  • If you pull the brake lever and the pads don’t stop your bike, you probably have air in your brake line. Unless you have bled brakes before we strongly suggest this be done by a professional bike mechanic.

GEARS
Your eBike comes equipped with a Shimano Altus 8-speed drivetrain. The trigger shifter mounted to your right handle will allow you to change gears. It is important that you only change gears while pedaling as the chain must be in motion to properly shift gears. Understanding when and how to shift gears on any bike will lead to a smoother riding experience and avoid unnecessary damage to components due to excessive strain. On an electric bike efficient use of gears may also help to maximize your battery range.

Shifting gears is done so that you can maintain a constant and comfortable pedalling speed (cadence), no matter how fast you are riding. As you move faster you will want to use the shifters to ‘shift up’ into higher gears to stop your legs spinning too fast. As your riding speed is reduced you will want to ‘shift down’ to lower gears so you do not have to exert excessive pressure on the pedal to keep moving. When coming to a stop it is recommended to ‘shift down’ to a lower gear. This positions the drive so you will always be ready to move off again in a lower (easier) gear and gradually ‘shift up’ through the gears as
you increase speed allowing you to safely gain momentum, traction and balance.

Ideally, scan the road ahead and anticipate your shifts. This will ensure that you are in the correct gear when you need it, and avoid any problems with shifting under difficult conditions.

  • Always pedal forward while shifting, the chain needs to be moving to perform the gear shifts.
  • Try to avoid extreme strain on the chain when shifting, if you are pedalling very hard (uphill or strong accelerations), ease up on the pedals slightly while continuing to pedal.

RIGHT-SIDE TRIGGER SHIFTER
There are 2 levers on the shifter, A and B (figure 24.1)

iGO-eXtreme 3.1 Electric-Fat-Bike-fig- \(20\)

  • Push lever A with your thumb to ‘shift down’ when pedalling is too difficult. This will move the chain to a larger gear on the rear wheel, and the indicator on the shifter will show a lower number. Pedalling will be easier.
  • When speed increases and you are pedalling too fast, pull the lever B with your index finger to ‘shift up’. This will move the chain to a smaller gear on the rear wheel, and the indicator will show a higher number. Pedalling will be harder.

TIRE PRESSURE

  • The tyre pressure will affect the range and comfort of your bike.
  • Your eBike comes equipped with the Kenda Juggernaut Sport Fat tyre, 26” x 4.5” which is capable of operating on 5 psi to 30 psi of air and can be adjusted to best suit any terrain.
  • The tyre pressure is measured in P.S.I. (Pounds / Square Inch).
  • Make sure to use a tyre pressure gauge when pumping your tyres to fill the proper amount of air.

ATTENTION!
Riding on deflated/soft tyres will severely reduce the range of the battery.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING
When using this product, basic precautions should always be followed, including the following:

  • Read all the instructions before using the product.
  • To reduce the risk of injury, close supervision is necessary when the product is used near children.
  • Do not put your fingers or hands into the product.
  • Leave indoors when charging or not riding.
  • Do not use the charger if the flexible power cord or output cable is frayed, has broken insulation, or any other signs of damage.
  • Only use a charger supplied or recommended by the manufacturer.
  • The battery is intended to be charged when the ambient temperature is between 0°C (32°F) and 30°C (86°F). Never charge the battery when ambient temperatures are outside this range.
  • This equipment is not intended to be used at ambient temperatures less than -10°C (14°F) or above ambient temperatures of 50°C (122°F).

CAUTION FOR NIGHT RIDING

  1. Check your bike during the day to make sure that your lighting & reflectors are installed correctly checking for looseness, tightening where needed and clean of any debris.
  2. Always make sure that the front & rear lighting is operating to its optimal capacity.
  3. Wear the right gear. It is recommended to wear reflective gear when riding in the dark. Eye protection such as a goggle, or clear protective glasses will keep any night debris from getting into your eyes.
  4. Ride with a buddy. It is recommended to ride with another person as a backup should an emergency arise.
  5. Riding conditions at night require a sharper eye. Many obstacles will appear as they are illuminated by the bike’s lighting and provide less reaction time so give yourself some extra space between you and your surroundings.

CAUTION FOR WET RIDING

  1. Make sure to leave yourself extra stopping time.
  2. Be sure to wear the appropriate clothing and protective gear. Wet debris can get kicked up to the rider from the mudguards so please be extra cautious.
  3. When accelerating in wet conditions be careful and make sure to increase speed at a slower pace. Don’t lean into corners and take more time to brake.
  4. Make sure that the appropriate tyre pressure is respected. Match the tyre pressure to the road & weather conditions. A slightly lower (No less than 5 psi of the recommended pressure written on the sidewall of the tyre) tyre pressure can provide extra traction in sloppy conditions as more tyre surface touches the ground.
  5. Always keep an eye on where you’re heading. Avoid drain covers, grates, oil, and road lines which can become slippery when wet.

GUIDE TO ON-OFF ROAD RIDING
On-road riding on flat surfaces is very different from Off-road terrain.

  1. Understand your terrain. A bike that is equipped and intended for road riding should not be used for off-road riding and vice versa. Only use your product for its intended purpose. Failure to comply could result in injury. We cannot be held responsible for anyone riding their bike which is not equipped for the intended terrain.
  2. When riding on road conditions make sure to respect the road signage.
  3. When riding off-road, be sure to familiarize yourself with your surroundings. When riding in hills it is important to understand that riding in these conditions can cause you to become unbalanced which requires quick adjustment. Failure to understand off-road riding characteristics can result in injury.
  4. Be very careful when riding your bike in snow terrain. A fat tyre can be operated with lower tyre pressure, so more tyre surface is touching the ground. (Only bikes equipped with 26” x 4” or wider tyres.) Please see the sidewall of tyre for proper operating pressure.
  5. Off-road riding requires greater stopping distances compared to on-road riding. Please make sure to adjust the brakes, cables, derailleur, and all mechanical functions of your bike with your local certified bike tech as described in this user manual. Failure to comply could result in injury.
