Please ensure that your eBike is properly sized for you before riding. If
your eBike is too small/too large, you may lose control and fall.
The most important part of t is ensuring that the seat position can be
adjusted so that the seated riders’ feet can touch the ground. This is
especially important for minors/children.
If your eBike does not t, please make the appropriate adjustments to
ensure a proper and safe t before riding.
