POWER ASSISTED BICYCLES
Welcome to the World of e.plus cycling.
Simply explained this is how your e.plus bike basically works.
7. Applying the brakes cuts the motor
8. You can also choose to switch the assist OFF and ON on the controller at any
point in your journey. This helps to save battery power when its not needed.
The more you use the assist, the more power it uses, each rider is dierent so gures can vary
considerably with dierent rider weight and the terrain you ride. Generally with normal use,
you should be able to obtain around 20 miles, before you need to re-charge your battery.
We Recommend that you get used to your new e.plus bike and the level of assit you place on
it, you’ll soon be able to work out how long a journey you can make and safely return under
assist. You can of course ride as you would a normal bike if the charge runs out.

Firstly may we congratulate
you on purchasing your new
electric power assisted e.bike.
Please take time to read your
manual. We have tried to write
it in a way that is simple and
easy to follow, whilst
explaining how your bike
works and how it is
maintained.
At any point if you feel you
need help we have a tehnical
helpline for support.
Please call our
Technical help line:
(weekdays 9am-5pm)

(Fig.15)
1. Switch the battery to ON, with the switch on the side of the battery, and
switch the power on by pressing the top power button on your controller
on the handlebars. (Fig.16)
2. As you begin to pedal a sensor will read the level of effort needed to turn
the wheels of your bike.
3. After one complete turn of the pedal the electric motor kicks in making
pedaling much easier.
4. There are 3 setting on your controller on the handlebar, allowing you to set
the level of assistance you require. (Fig.16)
For example: Riding up a hill you’ll probably use ‘3’, mode.
5. You can change the level of assistance you need at any time and as often as
you wish.
6. The motor works to assist pedalling, stop pedalling and the motor
stops too.
