How eZeebike works

Your first ride

Before you wheel your bike out into the world,

we recommend you practice handling the bike in a safe area away
from obstructions and traffic. The motor may look small, but it’s
powerful! You’ll be riding faster than you think.

Turn the key to the ‘ON’ position. A red LED

will illuminate below the key socket. If the light

flashes, read the

Troubleshooting section of

this manual. If it shines steadily, you’re ready

for the next step.

EPAC / Pedelec

As you pedal, rotation on the crank is picked

up by a sensor in the bottom bracket. This allows the drive system
to be engaged. A twist of the throttle then provides power-on-
demand, reducing the pedalling effort required.

E-Bike

The motor runs as soon as you turn the

throttle. Ensure that you are seated and ready to ride off before
you use the throttle. You may toggle the throttle on and off with the
switch located on it.

In E-bike mode, the range of your bike will be approximately 40
kms (25 miles). The hillier the terrain, the less you pedal, shortens
your range. While EPAC, judicious use of gears, power assistance
all contributes to increasing the mileage you can get out of your
ride. 40 - 60 kms (25 - 40 miles).
