4.1.1 Wear and maintenance
Wear on the chainring/sprocket means that the chain is gui-
ded less reliably over the corresponding toothed gear and
can therefore jump off.
Worn chain links widen the free openings to accommodate
the teeth so that the chain is guided less reliably over the
chain ring and sprocket and can jump off. The impression
may arise that the chain has widened.
fCheck rhw chain ring, sprocket and chain regularly for
signs of wear (visual inspection).
fHave worn chain rings or sprockets replaced by a
bicycle dealer.
fHave the chain correctly adjusted or replaced by the
bicycle dealer if it appears that the chain has widened
or the chain/chain links show signs of wear.

Risk of damage
Incorrect handling can damage the belt. Some damage
(e.g. torn carbon fibres inside the belt) is not visible from
the outside, but it can cause the belt to lose tensile
strength and/or tear.
fDo not kink, bend, twist, lace, turn upside down or use
as a belt whip.
fDo not force the belt onto or off the pulley. The belt
must be placed on the pulley without tension; the belt
tension is only established after it has been placed on
the pulley.
fDo not handle sharp-edged objects or tools on the
belt.
fDo not oil or grease the belt drive.
fDo not open or mend straps.
fNever stand on the belt. Do not allow any external
load to act on the belt (e.g. when the e-bike is parked).

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | ADVANCED | 01.2022 | 1002021-01
Significant differences between your e-bike and a bicycle
without an e-drive:
• A higher weight and/or different weight distribution
affect the driving behaviour.
• Different braking behaviour.
• Greater/earlier wear on brake components due to
higher braking forces.
• You are likely to ride at higher (average) speeds and
possibly more challenging courses.
fBe sure to familiarise yourself with your e-bike before
using it for the first time.
fDo not underestimate the basic differences between
your e-bike and a bike without an e-drive!
Especially if there is no previous experience in using
electric-motor-assisted vehicles.
4.3.2 Information on use
When the e-drive is switched on, the electric auxiliary motor
assists you in propelling your e-bike. When the country-
dependent cut-off speed* is reached, the electric pedal
assist switches off so that you pedal at higher speeds wit-
hout aid from the motor. When the speed drops below the
cut-off speed, the electric pedal assist starts again. The
speed is determined with the help of a speed sensor on the
rear wheel.
How strong the pedal assist from the motor is depends on
* the shut-off speed of 25 km/h (for Germany).
how hard you pedal yourself. If you do not pedal, there is also
no assistance from the e-drive. The only exception to this is
the "Push Assist" function: When push assist is activated,
the motor supports you when pushing your e-bike up to a
speed of 6 km/h. The push assist must explicitly not be used
while you are sitting on your e-bike, but only when pushing.
Your e-bike must be held securely with both hands and all
wheels must be in contact with the ground.
The operating steps for use are described in detail in the
separate manufacturer's instructions for the e-drive.
In it, you will find, among other things, detailed information
on the following:
• how to operate the e-drive (e.g. how to switch the
e-drive on and off, how to adjust/change the pedal
assistance level, etc.),
• how to handle the battery (e.g. how to insert/remove the
battery from the e-bike, how to charge the battery,
charging times, protective devices, etc.)
• the indications on the display and/or control element(s),
• the warning and indicator lights (e.g. on battery, display).

Brakes
5 Brakes
Your e-bike has at least two brakes that act inde-
pendently on the front wheel (front brake) or on the
rear wheel (rear brake).
Depending on the model, different brake types can
be installed on the front and rear wheel.
fRead and follow chapter "Disc brake" if your e-bike has
a disc brake.
and/or
fRead and follow chapter "Coaster brake" if your e-bike
has a coaster brake.
and/or
fRead and follow the separate manufacturer's instruc-
tions for the rim brake if your e-bike has a rim brake.
5.1 Brake lever assignment
All brake types except coaster brakes are operated
with a brake lever on the handlebars.
Coaster brakes are operated via the direction of
rotation of the pedals (pedalling backwards = bra-
king)
The brake levers are assigned in their basic configuration as
follows:
• Brake lever on the left operates the front brake.
• Brake lever on the right operates the rear brake.

5.2 Brake warnings
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
Abrupt braking of the front wheel can cause rollovers or
falls.
fUse the front brake very carefully at high speed.
fAt high speed, always use the front and rear brakes
simultaneously.
fAdapt your braking behaviour/braking force to driving
situations.
24
Brakes
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | ADVANCED | 01.2022 | 1002021-01
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
When braking the rear wheel abruptly, the rear wheel can
lock and cause falls.
fUse the rear brake carefully when cornering.
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
Unsuitable or incorrect brake pads can impair the braking
performance (too low/too strong) or lead to total brake
failure.
fHave brake components replaced only with original
spare parts.
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
On slippery, wet, slushy or dirty roads, tyres have less grip:
The braking power decreases, the braking distance
increases, the e-bike can skid when braking abruptly.
fAlways adapt your cycling style and speed to the
weather conditions and road characteristics.
5.3 Disc brake
The braking effect of the disc brake is created by
pressure from both sides of the brake shoes on the
brake disc of the respective wheel.

loss of function of the disc brake can result.
fHave the disc brake checked regularly (once a year or
every 1,000 km) by the bicycle dealer and have worn
components replaced.
CAUTION
Risk of burns!
The brake disc can heat up during braking. Especially
during/after intensive use of the brake (e.g. driving down-
hill/full braking), there is a risk of burns on hot brake discs.
fAlways allow brake discs to cool down before working
on them or on nearby components.
NOTE
Risk of damage!
Depending on the intensity of use, the brake pads of the
disc brake may "glaze" over time: The braking effect is
reduced and disturbing noises (squeaking) can occur.
Glazing can also be caused by emergency braking with
new brake pads.
fRegularly brake abruptly and relatively hard when
driving down longer slopes in order to "brake free"
glazed brake pads. Always make sure that the driving
or braking manoeuvre can be carried out safely.
fBrake in the disc brake before regular use off the road
if the disc brake or e-bike is new and after the brake
pads have been renewed.
NOTE
Risk of damage!
You can damage the disc brake when installing or remo-
ving the corresponding wheel.
fHave wheels with disc brakes removed/installed by a
bicycle dealer.

ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | ADVANCED | 01.2022 | 1002021-01
5.3.2 Operating the disc brake
If possible, brake simultaneously with the front and
rear brakes. This gives you better control of your
e-bike and reduces the braking distance.
fPull the brake lever towards the handlebar grip to brake
the associated wheel.
fPull the brake lever harder or to the maximum in
order to increase or maximise the braking force
("full braking").
fPull or release the brake lever less strongly to
reduce the braking force or to stop braking.
5.3.3 Braking in the disc brake
New disc brakes or a disc brake fitted with new brake pads
must be braked in before regular use.
fCarry out braking-in procedure away from road traffic;
if necessary, follow additional manufacturer's instruc-
tions for braking in the disc brake.
fDo not bring the e-bike to a complete stop during the
braking-in procedure, but only reduce the speed to
walking pace.
fAccelerate the e-bike to a speed of about 24
km/h and then brake sharply (to walking speed).
The wheels must not lock in the process!
fRepeat the process up to 50 times until an
increasing braking effect occurs.
fAllow brake discs and brake pads to cool down
after braking in or before the first journey.
fAfter braking in, check the grip width and adjust
if necessary:
The distance between the handlebar grip and the
brake lever must be at least 1 cm. It must be
possible to operate the brake lever safely while
riding (without taking the hand off the
handlebar).
fIf the effect of the disc brake is insufficient after
braking in or if unusual noises are heard during
braking, contact a bicycle dealer.
5.3.4 Wear and maintenance
fRegularly check the function and operability of the disc
brake (→ Chapter 5.3.6 „Checking the disc brake“).
fCheck brake pads and brake discs regularly for wear
(visual inspection).
fIf you are unsure about the wear limit, consult a
bicycle dealer.
fHave the hydraulics of the disc brake checked and
serviced regularly by a bicycle dealer.
fHave the wear parts replaced by the bicycle dealer and
then have the disc brake adjusted again.

5.3.5 Cleaning and care
fKeep disc brake components free of dirt and clean
them regularly to avoid loss of function or reduction of
braking power.
fClean soiled components with a slightly damp cloth.
fIn particular, keep brake discs free of (coarser) dirt. To
do so, wash the brake discs regularly with warm water.
5.3.6 Checking the disc brake
fCheck the secure fastening of the brake lever and
brake components.
fTighten loose screw connections.
fHave brakes with loosened brake shoes adjusted
by a bicycle dealer to prevent the brake shoes
from twisting.
fEnsure that the brake lever is mounted on the handle-
bar grip and aligned so that it can be operated com-
fortably while riding.
fIf necessary, loosen the brake lever fastening and
correct the alignment. Then tighten the brake
lever fastening again.
fCheck the distance between the fully tightened brake
lever and the handlebar grip: The distance must be at
least 1 cm.
fIf the gap is less than 1 cm, have the brake
adjusted by the bicycle dealer.
fCheck whether the wheel locks when the corresponding
brake lever is tightened.
fIf the wheel is not braked or blocked sufficiently
when the brake lever is tightened, have the brake
adjusted by a bicycle dealer.
fCheck how the brake pads move towards and away
from the brake disc when the brake lever is pulled/
released: The brake pads should move evenly and
symmetrically.
fCheck the wear of the brake pads: The brake pads
should wear equally on both sides of the brake disc.
fHave the brake checked by the bicycle dealer if
the brake pads wear unevenly or at an angle.
fPull the brake lever as far as possible towards the
handlebar grip and check whether brake fluid is leaking
from the hydraulic line or the connection points to other
components.
fIf brake fluid leaks out, have the brake serviced
and correctly adjusted again by the bicycle
dealer.

5.4.1 Special warnings for coaster brakes
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
If the chain jumps off, the coaster brake is immediately
ineffective! A torque arm that is not securely and cor-
rectly attached to the frame can cause a loss of function
of the coaster brake and there is a risk that the wheel will
wobble on its suspension.
fDo not brake with the coaster brake alone. Always use
another brake (handbrake) on the e-bike to prevent a
total loss of braking power in the event of the chain
suddenly coming off.
fRegularly check that the torque arm is securely and
correctly attached to the frame. Tighten loose screw
connections if necessary.
5.4.2 Operating the coaster brake
The coaster brake is the only type of brake that is
not operated with a brake lever on the handlebars,
but via the direction of rotation of the pedals (pedal-
ling backwards = braking).
If possible, always use another brake on the e-bike
in addition to the coaster brake.
29
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | ADVANCED | 01.2022 | 1002021-01 www.advanced.tech
Gear shift
fPedal backwards to slow down the rear wheel.
fA stronger or more abrupt pedalling back causes
a stronger or more abrupt braking of the e-bike.
fPedal forwards to release the braking effect or to set
the e-bike in motion.
5.4.3 Wear and maintenance
Signs of wear are usually manifested by the appea-
rance of unusual noises and a decrease in braking
efficiency.
fRegularly check that the torque arm is correctly and
securely attached to the bicycle frame.
fIf unusual noises occur or the braking power decreases,
have the coaster brake checked by a bicycle dealer and
serviced if necessary.
5.4.4 Cleaning and care
According to their design (brake components pre-
dominantly installed in the rear wheel hub), no spe-
cial cleaning instructions need to be observed for
this type of brake.
5.4.5 Checking the coaster brake
fCheck when the braking effect of your coaster brake
starts.
fIf more than a sixth of a turn of the pedals is
required before the brakes start to work, have the
coaster brake checked and adjusted by a cycle
dealer.
6 Gear shift
You can adjust the cadence and effort via the gear
shift. The model-dependent shift mechanism of a
gear shift works on the chain or on/in the rear wheel
hub.
Basically, the following applies:
A low gear results in a large effort with a low cadence.
A high gear results in a lower effort at a high cadence.
fRead and follow the "Derailleur gear system" chapter if
your e-bike has a derailleur gear system.
or
fRead and follow the "Hub gear system" chapter if your
e-bike has a hub gear system.

7.1.1 Rims and spokes
Correct and even tensioning of the rims stabilises the con-
centricity of the wheels. Impaired concentricity endangers
the stability of the rim, which may break as a result.
If you drive over obstacles (e.g. a kerb) quickly or if a spoke
nipple comes loose, this can affect the tension of the spo-
kes.
7.1.2 Tyre types
The tyre and rim are (usually) not air-tight themselves, but
contain a tube that is filled with air via the valve. Excepti-
ons*: Tubular tyres and UST tyres.

Suspension
8 Suspension
A well-adjusted suspension increases ride comfort
and driving safety on uneven tracks. The provision of
suspended components depends on the model.
• A suspension seat post absorbs shocks and road
irregularities at the saddle.
• A suspension fork instead of the conventional front
fork absorbs shocks and road irregularities at the front
wheel.
• A rear suspension within the frame absorbs shocks and
road irregularities at the rear wheel.

Suspension
ORIGINAL INSTRUCTIONS | ADVANCED | 01.2022 | 1002021-01
8.1 Function and terms
During compression, the suspension's stanchions sink into
the stanchions and compress the spring in the suspended
component. When the spring is released, the spring inside
pushes the stanchions back into their original position.
Depending on the model, the spring is a mechanical spring
made of steel or titanium or a pneumatic spring with air
chambers.
By adjusting the spring tension, you determine how heavily
the suspension compresses under load or how strong its
resistance to compression is.
Hydraulic dampers provide controlled and adjustable
rebound. By adjusting the compression and rebound dam-
ping of the dampers, the speed at which the spring com-
presses or decompresses can be determined. In general: The
stronger the compression/rebound damping is set, the more
sluggishly the suspension moves; the weaker it is set, the
more smoothly/quickly the suspension moves back to its
original position.
The term sag refers to the compression caused by the cyc-
list's body weight. As a rule, the optimal sag is 15-30 % of
the total spring travel: The suspension should only compress
by a few millimetres when the cyclist sits on the saddle.
8.2 Suspension warnings
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
An incorrectly adjusted suspension can affect the ground
traction of the e-bike depending on the road surface. This
increases the risk of accidents and injuries. There is a risk
of injury if the suspension components under tension are
not handled properly.
fHave the basic adjustment of the suspension carried
out by the bicycle dealer.
fAlways have suspension forks, rear frame shocks and
suspension seat posts removed and repaired by a
bicycle dealer.
NOTE
Risk of damage!
Incorrect adjustment/handling can damage suspension
components.
fAlways have pneumatic suspension components
adjusted by a bicycle dealer.

NOTE
Risk of damage!
An incorrectly adjusted suspension can impair riding
comfort and cause damage to the e-bike.
fHave the suspension checked by a bicycle dealer if
unusual noises/hard jolts occur when compressing or
rebounding.
NOTE
Risk of damage!
Permanent activation of the lock-out function increases
wear on the suspension components.
fOnly use the lock-out function if it noticeably impro-
ves the operating behaviour.
fDeactivate the lock-out function again if the opera-
ting situation permits.

surfaces, e.g. universal oil.
fIf necessary, ask the bicycle dealer for advice on
suitable lubricants and care products.
fAfter lubrication, apply 5× pressure to the
suspension so that it compresses.
fRemove excess lubricant with a clean cloth.
fHave the suspension checked by a bicycle dealer if
there are unusual noises when compressing or releasing
the suspension or if the suspension has no resistance
at all when compressing.

21.4 Final decommissioning / disposal
Note on waste prevention
According to the provisions of EU Directive 2008/98/
EC and its implementation in the legislation of the
EU Member States, waste prevention measures
should be pursued as a priority instead of waste
management measures.
In the case of electrical and electronic equipment,
extending the life of the equipment by repairing
defective devices and passing on/selling functio-
ning used equipment (instead of final disposal) are
of particular importance for waste prevention.
The EU Directives for old electrical and electronic
equipment (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equip-
ment Directive 2012/19/EU) and for old recharge-
able and conventional batteries (Battery Directive
2006/66/EC) apply to the disposal of an electric
motor-assisted bicycle, according to which the cor-
responding components must be collected separa-
tely and disposed of in an environmentally sound
manner.
As a consumer, you are legally obliged to return
electrical and electronic devices, as well as rechar-
geable and conventional batteries, at the end of
their service life to the public collection points set
up for this purpose or to the specialist trade.
fBefore disposing of the e-bike, be sure to remove the
rechargeable battery of the e-drive.
fIf necessary, remove other rechargeable and conventio-
nal batteries installed on the e-bike, as well as all
components and operating parts containing recharge-
able and conventional batteries from the e-bike.
21.4.1 Disposing of the e-bike
fDispose of the e-bike (without batteries) as old elect-
ronic equipment.
fContact your city or local government to find out
about free collection points for old electrical
appliances and/or collection points where old
electrical appliances can be recycled.
fIf applicable, delete personal data stored on
accessory devices before you hand in the e-bike
at the collection point.
This task is your responsibility.
21.4.2 Disposing of the battery
fObserve the detailed instructions for disposing of the
battery in the manufacturer's instructions for the
e-drive.
fDispose of any rechargeable and conventional batte-
ries removed from the e-bike as hazardous waste at a
recycling centre or collection point in your town or
municipality.
