Revive DX Cycle Computer

For your convenience a cycle computer has been integrated into the Reive DX handlebar. To avoid theft or damage while parked or transporting

Revive, the computer can be easily removed. (For instructions on how to operate the cycle computer’s features, please refer to the instruction

manual.)

Removal and Installation of Cycle Computer

The Cycle Computer is held in place by a locking mechanism integrated into the handlebar, located on the underside of the handlebar’s crossbar.

To remove the computer, reach under the crossbar and turn the knob clockwise (to the right) to release the latch holding the computer in place.

Lift the computer out of the bar.

To replace the computer, place the unit so that it rests evenly in the receptacle and turn the locking mechanism knob counter clockwise (to the

left). Check that it is securely in place before riding the Revive.

If speed is not being recorded, check to see that the sensor, located on the right fork blade, is in line with the dots located on the wheel cover,

closest to the hub.

Riding Tips

R

evive is easy to maneuver, and after just a few minutes of riding you will feel stable and in control. Here are a few tips to help you ride with

more confidence.

Getting Started:

Make sure that the kickstand is in the horizontal position. When riding with the

kickstand in the downward (extended) position, the kickstand could come into contact with the ground

when turning left, which could cause you to lose control of the bicycle.

Start in an easy gear (1, 2, or 3 on the twist shifter’s gear indicator FIG. 12). Sit on the saddle; with

one foot, rotate the pedal to the top of the pedal stroke (12 o’clock) then place your foot on the top of

the pedal; lean back into the Lumbar Support, and begin pedaling. Do not pull on the handlebar.

begin moving forward, always look ahead to where you want to go; do not look down at the front wheel.

Turning:

While it is recommended that you maintain contact with the Lumbar Support, you can lean

forward slightly when turning to lean the bike into a turn.Turning: While it is recommended that you

Going Uphill:
