-
Never modify your frame or bicycle in any way. Do not sand, drill, file, or remove parts from your bicycle. Do not install incompatible components or hardware.
-
Always use proper lifting techniques to prevent injury. Your eBike may be significantly heavier than a bicycle without a battery pack and a motor.
-
Take responsibility for your SAFETY. If you have any questions or do not understand any aspect of using or maintaining your bicycle, contact Aipas eBikes at service@aipasbike.com or call (833)532-5966
Helmets
- Always wear a helmet. Wearing a helmet properly may reduce the risk of a severe head injury. When riding, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds the standards of the Consumer Product Safety Commission(CPSC). Check the manual that comes with your helmet.
- Ensure your helmet fits your head and is properly secured. If you attach a child’s seat to the bicycle, the child must wear a properly fitted helmet at all times.
- Read your helmet manual to make sure it is adjusted properly according to the fitting instructions provided by the helmet manufacturer.
- A proper-fitting helmet should be comfortable and should neither rock forward/backward nor side to side.
Pre-Ride safety Check
- Before each ride, inspect your eBike for damage. If damage is found, do not ride.
- Verify that the front and rear axles are secure.
- Verify that the handlebar and seat clamps are closed and tightened to the torque specified in the Manual.
- Verify that both the handlebar latch and frame latch are secure and fully closed.
- Check the tire pressure of both wheels.
- Pull the brake levers to ensure the brakes are working properly and adjust if necessary.
- NEVER exceed the maximum total weight limit of 330 lbs. (150 kg). The rear rack can hold a maximum of 75 lbs. (35 kg). As an example, if you have 40 lbs. (18 kg) of cargo, then the maximum weight of the rider would be 290 lbs. (131 kg)
Follow eBike Regulations On and Off the Road
Be aware of eBike regulations in your area. Generally, the regulations for the
use of an Aipas bicycle are the same as those for a standard bicycle. However,
there may be local differences such as where you can ride, minimum rider age,
or required equipment and license and registration regulations. It is your
responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to an electric bicycle
and to obey them.
Ride at Your Own Risk and Use Common Sense
- Do not ride distracted. Always remain alert to all riding conditions. Using the Display or other technology (including your mobile phone or music player) could distract you from riding. Only adjust the Display when stationary and in a safe start-up position.
- Always keep both hands on the handlebar grips and the brake levers so they are within reach while riding.
- Never use headphones or a cell phone to talk or text when riding.
- Always ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Braking while steering may reduce your ability to control your bicycle.
- Look ahead and brake sooner. You may be moving faster on your eBike. and it may be heavier. compared to a bicycle. which means you may need to react and brake sooner when riding. Other road users may not expect you to be traveling at higher speeds. Riding faster may increase your risk of a crash.
- Stop pedaling well before approaching corners to avoid entering a corner too quickly. You should also pay particular attention to terrain conditions as you may approach obstacles faster than expected.
Riding in Wet Conditions
- Use caution when riding in wet conditions as it will take longer to brake and to stop. Your tires may slip when turning. The risk of a crash is dramatically increased in wet conditions.
- Your electric bicycle can withstand light rain and small splashes, but it is not designed to be subjected to inclement weather, extremely heavy showers, or submersion in water. The electric bike’s components have an IP rating of 65. Damage caused by water damage will not be covered by the warranty.
Riding at Night
- Riding at night comes with more risks than riding during the day due to decreased visibility; riders are encouraged to exercise increased caution in nighttime conditions.
- Turn lights ON for safety. For increased visibility. ensure that the front headlight and rear taillight are turned ON and adjusted so that other people on the road can see them clearly. Also check your front, rear, and wheel reflectors.
- Riders should wear reflective clothing at night. You may want to attach additional flashing lights to your clothing or helmet.

7-Speed Gear System
Your Aipas eBike comes with a 7-speed freewheel. The freewheel is the cluster
of sprockets on the rear wheel of your bicycle. While pedaling in l st gear
(lowest gear using the largest sprocket), it will be easier to pedal up hills.
In 7th gear (highest gear using the smallest sprocket), it will be easier to
reach higher speeds on flat or downhill terrain.
Throttle WARNING
The right handlebar features a twist throttle.
Check that the Pedal Assist (PAS) level is set above 0, then twist the
throttle back slowly to achieve your desired speed and acceleration.
Mechanical Disc Brakes
WARNING
Your Aipas is equipped with mechanical disc brakes.
-
To brake the front wheel
Pull the left brake lever to activate the front brake. -
To brake the rear wheel
Pull the right brake lever to activate the rear brake.
Front and Rear Lights
Your Aipas eBike comes with integrated front and rear lights.
-
To turn lights ON : Press the button to turn on.
-
To turn lights OFF: Press the button to turn off.
-
Suspension Fork
Please check to ensure your suspension forks are properly adjusted for the terrain and your weight. The black knob does not have a function. The suspension fork will affect the handling of the bicycle, primarily when going over bumps and stopping. In some situations, it may be advantageous to lock the suspension so it is fully rigid. -
Increase stiffness
Turn the blue knob clockwise towards the” lock” direction indicated. -
Reduce stiffness
Turn the blue knob counterclockwise towards the “open” direction. indicated. -
Fully lock suspension
Turn the knob clockwise towards the “lock” direction indicated until it cannot be turned further.
How To Use Pedal Assist
- Pedal Assist (PAS) functions only when you are pedaling. If you do not pedal, the PAS will not activate. The motor output always depends on your pedaling and the PAS level you have set.
- PAS automatically switches off at the maximum speed set for your Aipas eBike (up to 28 mph). When the speed falls below the maximum set speed, PAS automatically becomes available again.
- You can also use your Aipas eBike as a normal bicycle without assistance at any time. either by turning off the display or by setting the PAS level to 0. PAS will not function if the battery is discharged.
- When the bicycle has not been used for l O consecutive minutes, the display will automatically shut down. The PAS and throttle features will no longer work when the display is OFF.
Walk Mode
Electric bicycles are heavier than bicycles. To make walking the bicycle
easier. your Aipas is equipped with Walk Mode, which can be toggled on or off
in the settings menu. Walk Mode may be subject to local regulations. Check
your local regulations to determine if it is allowed.
-
To activate
Hold down the minus (-) button on the display control pad and the motor will engage at a speed similar to a slow walk. -
To deactivate
Pull either brake lever to disengage Walk Mode OR press and hold the minus (-)button on the display control pad.
NOTE: When Walk Mode is active. “Walking” will appear on the display.
Cruise Control
Cruise control on your Aipas works similarly to cruise control on a car. The
bike will try to maintain a speed based on the position of the throttle when
cruise control is activated. For example. if the throttle is twisted all the
way from its resting position (to a position that would normally maintain 20
mph) and the minus button is held, cruise control will be activated and set at
20 mph. Even if the bike is currently going slower than 20 mph, the bike will
try to accelerate and maintain that speed because it was set based on that
throttle position.
To activate
Hold the minus(-) button while twisting the throttle.
To cruise at low speeds, only slightly twist the throttle and hold the minus
(-) button.
NOTE: When Cruise Control is active, “Cruise” will appear on the display.
To deactivate
Pull either brake lever to disengage Cruise Control.
Warning Messages
Frame
Never modify your frame or bicycle in any way as this could cause serious
injury or death. Do not sand. drill, file, or remove parts from your bicycle.
Do not install incompatible components or hardware.
Motor & Electric System
- Do not open the drive unit yourself. The drive unit must only be repaired by qualified personnel using only original parts. This will ensure that the safety of the drive unit is maintained.
- Unauthorized opening of the drive unit will render warranty claims null and void.
- All components fitted to the drive unit and all other components of your Aipas eBike PAS system (e.g. chaining, chaining receptacle, pedals) must only be replaced with identical components or components that have been specifically approved by Aipas eBikes. This should help protect the motor from overloading.
- Always remove the battery pack from your Aipas eBike before beginning work (e.g. inspection. repair. assembly, maintenance. work on the chain. etc.). transporting it with a car or on an airplane, or storing it. Battery pack removal should prevent unintentional activation of your Aipas eBike.
- Do not make any modifications to your Aipas eBike or attach any other products that might increase the performance of your Ai pas eBike. Doing so will generally reduce the service life of the system and risks damaging the drive unit and the bicycle. You also run the risk of losing the guarantee and warranty claims on the bicycle you have purchased.
- Under extreme conditions, such as continuously high loads at low speeds when riding up hills or carrying loads, parts of the motor can reach high temperatures.
Brake System
- ALWAYS apply the right brake lever (rear wheel) before and during the use of the front brake. ALWAYS apply even pressure to both brake levers when blowing down or stopping. If only the front brake is applied while slowing or stopping quickly, you may be ejected over the front handlebars.
- Before riding, check to ensure brake levers do not touch the handlebars when fully applied, If either lever touches the handlebars screw or unscrew the barrel adjuster to increase tension in the brake cable. If this does not fix the problem. take your bicycle to an experienced bicycle mechanic for further adjustment.
- Disc brake rotors will become hot during use and will stay hot for a short period after use. To prevent burns, do not touch the disc rotor right after use.
Electrical Components
- Always turn lights ON for your safety. especially when riding at night or in low visibility situations. Set the display brightness such that you can adequately see important information like speed or warning symbols. Display brightness that is incorrectly set can result in dangerous situations.
- Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the display. If you do not concentrate on the traffic around you, you risk being involved in a crash. If you want to change any settings other than the PAS level. always stop before changing the settings or display.
Range Estimates
The range the bicycle can go on a single battery charge can vary significantly
between riders, terrain. wind conditions. user input. and additional cargo
weight. The following table shows estimates of potential ranges riders may
expect in different conditions.
All tests were performed with
• Flat ground | • Few starts and stops | • Rider weight -180 lbs |
---|---|---|
• Few bumps | • No additional cargo | • Top speed set to 20 mph |
• Little to no wind | • Temperature -75°F | • CST BFT tires at -30 PSI |
Tips to Increase Range
To get the maximum range out of each battery charge, there are some simple
things you can do
- Ride at a lower PAS level
- Use lower PAS levels and pedal when climbing hills
- Pedal when starting from a standstill
Battery
- Only place the battery pack on clean surfaces. Avoid getting dirt, e.g .sand or soil, in the charging port and contacts.
- Do not charge or use a battery pack if it is damaged. Contact AipaseBikes to order a replacement.
- When unlocking and removing your battery pack from the frame, take care that it does not slide out while the bicycle is folded. If your battery impacts the ground and is damaged, discontinue use and contact Aipas eBikes immediately.
Top Speed
Your Aipas eBike ships with a maximum speed set at 20 miles per hour (mph).
This means it is a Class 2 electric bicycle in states that recognize three
classes of eBikes. In most states that only recognize eBikes generally, the 20
mph top speed is legal for use on public roads.
Class | Pedal Assist Speed Limit | Throttle Speed Limit |
---|---|---|
20 mph | Throttle not allowed | |
2 (Default) | 20 mph | 20 mph |
3 | 28mph | 20 mph |
Ride within your limits to prevent serious injury or death. Riding at higher speeds poses an increased safety risk. ALWAYS wear a helmet and obey the rules of the road.
NOTE: This setting represents the top speed in kilometers per hour. For Class 2 performance, this speed setting must not exceed 20 mph (32 km/h). For Class 3 performance, this setting will be set at l 00, indicating the bike has been completely unlocked to enable speeds of up to 28mph.
Things To Check
- Check your eBike to ensure the front axle, the rear axle, the handle-bars, and the seat are secure.
- Check that both the handlebar latch and frame latch are fully closed and locked.
- Check the tire pressure of both wheels.
- Pull the brake levers to make sure your brakes are working properly and adjust them if necessary.
- NEVER exceed the maximum total weight limit of 450 lbs. (204 kg). The rear rack can hold a maximum of 75 lbs. (35 kg). As an example, if you have 40 lbs. (18 kg) of cargo, then the maximum weight of the rider would be 41 O lbs. (186 kg)
- Only carry the cargo you need. More weight will drain the battery faster and affect how the bike handles.
- Ensure all components are properly secured.
- Make sure your battery is fully charged.
- Please secure your helmet.
Safety Tips
- The acceleration of your eBike might be faster than anticipated and may feel unadaptable at first. Before your ride, Please use the lowest level of pedal assist (PAS l) and become familiar with the operation of your Aipas eBike by practicing starting, stopping, cornering, and navigating obstacles in a safe environment away from other bicycles, pedestrians, and/or vehicles.

Battery Safety
- Battery pack refers to all original Aipas eBikes battery packs.
- The safety of both our customers and our products is important to us. Our eBike batteries are lithium-ion batteries, developed and manufactured with the latest technology. We comply with or exceed the requirements of all relevant safety standards. When charged, these lithium-ion batteries contain a high level of energy. If a fault occurs (which may not be detectable from the outside), in very rare cases and under unfavorable conditions, lithium-ion batteries can catch fire. Take care when using and charging your battery. Failure to follow the guidelines below could damage property and/or serious injury. Contact Aipas eBikes immediately if you have any questions regarding battery safety.
- Your Aipas eBike battery must not be opened, even for repairs. There is a risk your eBike battery could catch fire, e.g. due to a short circuit. This risk increases if an eBike battery that has already been opened is reused at a later point in time. Do not attempt to repair an eBike battery in the event of a fault. Have it replaced with an original Ai pas eBike battery pack.
- The battery is protected against deep discharge, overloading, overheating, and short-circuiting by Electronic Cell Protection (ECP). In the event of a fault, a protective circuit switches the battery pack off automatically.
- Only use original Aipas eBike batteries for your eBike. Using other batteries can lead to injuries and pose a fire hazard. Aipas eBikes accepts no liability or warranty claims if other batteries are used.
