LIABILITY AND GENERAL INFORMATION ON RIDING
The rider is required to use the electrically power assisted cycle with utmost diligence and in full
compliance with the road regulations and all cycling rules in force in the country of use.
This electrically power assisted cycle (EPAC) has been designed and built to be used in off-road
contexts. Its use on public roads and cycle paths is subject to the relative endowment and fitting of
all the devices envisaged by the traffic code and local traffic regulations in force regarding cycling.
It is important to bear in mind that when using the electrically power assisted cycle, even

The rider must keep the product clean and in a perfect state of efficiency and maintenance,
diligently perform the safety checks he/she is responsible for, as well as keep all the documents
regarding the maintenance of the product.
Riders must carefully assess any weather conditions which could make it potentially dangerous to
use the electrically power assisted cycle.
This product is a vehicle, therefore, the faster is it goes, the longer the braking distance required.
In this regard, it is recommended to moderate the speed and to maintain an adequate braking
distance in the event of adverse weather conditions, in the event of intense traffic or when
traveling on uneven and bumpy road surfaces (irregular road surfaces with potholes, depressions
and obstacles).
The braking distance increases on wet, slippery, muddy or icy roads and the tyre grip decreases
significantly with the risk of the wheels skidding and loss of balance compared to dry roads.
It is, therefore, essential to ride the bike with greater care, maintain a suitable speed and safety
distance from other vehicles or pedestrians.
Take extra care when riding on unfamiliar roads.
