About this Manual
your riding pleasure and safety.
Ride Defensively!
One of the most common cycling accidents is that when the driver of a parked car opens
his door into a rider's path.
Another common occurrence is when a car or another cyclist moves suddenly into your
path. Always be aware of other vehicles around you. Do not assume that drivers or other
cyclists see you. Get prepared to take evasive action or stop suddenly.
Make Yourself Easy To See!
Make yourself more visible by wearing bright reflective clothing. Keep your reflectors clean
and properly aligned. Signal your intentions so other drivers and other cyclists can notice
your actions.
Ride Within Your Limits!
Take it slow until you are familiar with conditions that you encounter. Be especially
careful in wet conditions as traction can be greatly reduced and brakes less effective.
Never ride faster than conditions warrant or beyond your riding abilities. Remember that
alcohol, drugs, fatigue and inattention can significantly reduce your ability to make good
judgments and ride safely.
Keep Your E-Bikes In Safe Condition
Follow the inspection and maintenance guidelines. Check critical safety equipment before
each and every ride.
Know The Law
Cyclists are required to follow traffic rules. Additionally, some communities regulate the use
of motorized bicycles
regarding minimum age requirements and necessary equipment. Check with your local
police department for specific details.
Correct Frame Size
When selecting a new E-BIKE, the proper frame size is a very important safety consideration.
Most full sized bicycles come in a range of frame sizes. These sizes usually refer to the
distance between the center of the bottom bracket and the top of the frame seat tube.
For safe and comfortable riding there should be a clearance of no less than 1-2 inches
between the groin area of the intended rider and the top tube of the bicycle frame, while
the rider straddles the bicycle with both feet flat on the ground.
The ideal clearance will vary between types of bicycles and rider preference. This makes
straddling the frame when off the seat easier and safer in situations such as sudden traffic
stops. Women can use a men's style bicycle to determine the correct size.
