Safety Warnings

You need to practice riding electric bikes, it can be dangerous to ride. The user or consumer assumes all risk of personal injuries, damage, or failure of the bicycle or system and all other losses or damages to themselves and others and to any property arising as a result of using the bicycle. There are risks related to the use of an electric bicycle that cannot be predicted or avoided, and which are the sole responsibility of the rider. As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subjected to wear and high stresses. Different materials and components may react to wear or stress fatigue in different ways. If the design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly fail possibly causing injuries to the rider. Any form of crack, scratches, or change of coloring in highly stressed areas indicates that the life of the component has been reached and should be replaced. For replacement parts, technical information, and warranty assistance, please contact service@bikonit.com.
PLEASE DO NOT DISASSEMBLE THE ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS IN ANY CASE!

General Warnings

IMPORTANT INFORMATION BEFORE YOUR FIRST RIDE

BATTERY
Fully charge the batteries before the first ride. Remove the battery before attempting to service, making adjustments, or performing any maintenance on this electric bike. Removing the battery will help ensure the motor is not started inadvertently while service or maintenance is being performed. Check Page 15 for battery removal instructions. The battery should be removed anytime the bike is stored or is left unattended to prevent unauthorized use or accidental engagement of the motor. Keep out of reach of children. Failure to remove the battery may result in serious injury or death.
Do not use a broken battery because its battery acid is highly corrosive and can cause serious burns if it comes in contact with your eyes or skin. Please turn to a doctor for medical assistance if this occurs.

You may charge your dual batteries at the same time or separately, make sure the battery (batteries) is (are) fully charged before your first ride. Watch out for the electric shock when attempting to plug the charger plug.

Brakes application
During your ride, the excess force on the front brake can cause you to lose balance and fall. This is an electric bike, it shares the same mechanical features as non-electric bikes. Bikonit recommends a mild start and also avoids harsh braking.
The Bikonit bike comes equipped with hydraulic disc brakes. These brakes are different from other general types of brakes associated with bikes. Disc brakes squeeze a hub-mounted disk between two pads. Stopping power on your bike can vary depending on adjustments and pad thickness and wear. Consult your local bike shop about brake options and adjustments according to your specific needs.
**Disc brakes come with sharp edges that may cause injury, make sure you or any other people take extra caution when touching it if they have to because of extremely hot after using, DO NOT touch it until it cooled down.**

More Brake Warnings
Disc brakes have varying amounts of braking power depending on adjustments and pad conditions. The excessive or sudden application of the front brake could pitch the rider over the handlebars which may result in serious injury or death.
Check the braking system, and make sure it functions properly before the first ride. Bikini has examined every single bike before packing, but the transportation could bring potential damage to the brakes, check it before each ride.

TRANSPORTATION OF BIKONIT ELECTRIC BIKES
– Always remove the battery (batteries) from the bike before transporting the bike – Never lay your bike on the chain side, use the kickstand or lay it to any strong vertical object that is enough to support the bike to stand.
INSPECTION BEFORE EACH RIDE
Before each ride, make sure you go through the checklist to ensure a safe ride. Never ride a bike with damages or defects, get it repaired, or turn to local bike shops for repair.

Tire inflation
Make sure to check tire pressures using a tire pressure gauge. The tires should be set between 7 psi and 15 psi.
Tires and Wheels

1. Spin each wheel and check that the tires are in good shape with no cuts or abrasions. If these are found, replace the tire immediately.
2. Inspect the rim for trueness by spinning it and watching for any side-to-side or up-and-down wobble. If any movement is noted do not ride this bike until the rim is repaired.

Handlebar stem and front-wheel
Make sure the front wheel and handlebar stem are aligned in the proper orientation of each other. Turn the handlebar from side to side with the front wheel locked between your knees to test the stem connection of the fork. If any movement is noted do not ride the bike until this is corrected. Inspect cable routing to be sure the handlebars can turn freely without binding or pinching the cables. Check to be sure that your handgrips on the handlebars are in good condition and the bars are not protruding through the grip.

Seat Position
The saddle should be adjusted for proper fit and is an important factor in riding safely. Place your pedals at the 6 o’clock and 12 o’clock positions. Your bottom leg should be very slightly bent when the ball of your foot is placed on the lower pedal. If it’s bent too much you need to raise the saddle. If you have to rock your hips to reach or can’t easily reach, you must lower the saddle. Ensure that the saddle is straight and level.

Seat and Seat Post
Check that the seat is securely mounted on the seat post by lifting and down on the seat. This should not tilt or move. Next, check the security of the seat post in the frame by attempting to rotate the seat. If the seat rotates, then the seat tube is not properly clamped into the frame.

Respect Local Regulations and Rules/Private Property
Remember each area in which you may ride your bike may have specific regulations. Always respect private property and never trespass. Respect the rights of others who may be sharing the trail with you; i.e.: hikers, cyclists, and equestrians. Stay on your designated trail and do not destroy vegetation and minimize your impact on the environment. If you are unsure of your local laws or regulations, please contact your local conversation officer before riding in designated wildlife areas.

An electric bike like any mechanical device is subject to fatigue, stress, and wear. Over time and due to use, the frame and its components can fail. The environment and type of riding the bike could reduce its useful lifespan. If proper care and maintenance are not performed your bike and or its components can fail to cause serious injury or death.

Ebike Using Guidance

1. How to Charge and Power On
Battery
a. The battery will be mostly charged when you receive it. It is better to use it first to drain it down and then charge it. This is also the case if you haven’t used the bike for a few months.
b. To charge the battery, remove the rubber plug from the side of the bike. Plug the charger into the power outlet and wait until the light on the charging unit is illuminated. Plug the other end of the cord into the bike. The light will change to green when it’s charged. (Two batteries, two charging ports).
c. There is a charging port that you can charge the battery one time.

d. The battery does not have to be installed in the bike to charge.
i. Remove the battery from the bike by inserting the key, turning it 90 degrees, and pulling firmly on the handle. ii: Press this button, it will show the capacity of the battery. iii. The charger will get hot, so make sure to keep it away from all flammable materials and surfaces.
iv. During normal use you can charge it after every ride regardless of battery level, there is no battery memory and therefore consistent charging won’t damage the battery.
v. The charging unit will automatically stop charging once the battery is full of safety.
vi. Always charge in dry, ventilated conditions away from sunlight, ideally 50-80 degrees Fahrenheit. vii. Only use the original charger, DO NOT use any aftermarket chargers or charging accessories.
e. For long-term battery storage, it is best to leave the battery at about 20% (1/4 lights). Always store the battery in a cool place (colder than 65F). For best results, do not store for longer than 4 months without cycling the battery, use it to de-charge, then re-charge to 20%.
f.There are two safety locks on the battery to better protect the battery

Maintenance and Inspection

1. Before First Ride (After Initial Build and Inspection):
   a. Adjust the seat to a comfortable height.
   b. Adjust the saddle rails for comfort position.
   c. Adjust the handlebar, shifter, and brake lever position to your liking.
   d. Squeeze brake levers and test the braking power with the bike on a stand, or just walking alongside the bike. DO NOT attempt to ride the bike if the brakes are not adjusted properly.

2. Before Every Ride:
   a. Check tire pressure and tread wear. Check the sidewalls for damage.
   b. Check the brakes, and ensure brakes have adequate power and an appropriate amount of brake pad remaining.
   c. Check that wheels are straight and turning freely. Ensure spokes are consistently tight.
   d. Check the Chain tension and lube the chain to reduce friction and increase shifting precision.
   e. Check that the handlebars and stem are secure, and tighten all stem bolts.

3. After Every Ride:
   a. Wipe down the frame with soap and water. DO NOT use a power washer or high- pressure hose, this could damage the motor and electrical components.
   b. Mud and dirt can be washed away with a low-pressure hose, avoiding direct flow with the electrical components and motor assembly.

4. Monthly Maintenance:
   a. Check for loose spokes.
   i. Squeeze the spokes together to check the spoke tension. Spokes should flex slightly and return to their original position. Visit your local bike shop for wheel truing and spoke replacements if necessary. Tighten any loose spokes with a spoke wrench.
   b. Check forks for damage and air pressure (if applicable).
   i. The fork legs should move freely. Check the seals where the stanchions enter the lower legs of the forks. These seals can wear over time, and if not kept clean can damage the fork stanchions as well.
   c. Check cassette and chainring for wear/damage.
   i. Ensure the chain flows freely around the front chainring and each gear in the rear. Inspect the teeth in the front chainring as well as each cog in the rear. It is typical for grease and dirt to build up along the sides of the chainring, cassette cogs, and pully wheels on the rear derailleur.
   ii. Use a bicycle degreaser or chain cleaner and a brush to clean and degrease the chain and drivetrain components. Re-Lube with bicycle-specific chain lube, and wipe off excess.
