CYCLING WITH PEDAL ASSISTANCE
What is pedal assistance?
Your Babboe cargo bike is equipped with electric pedal assistance. This means that an electric motor enhances
your efforts. If the pedals are not rotated the motor will not work. When pedal assistance is enabled, you will
have an easy start. From experience, cyclists say that pedal assistance is similar to cycling with tailwind.
Cycling with pedal assistance
With the powerful pedal assistance you will easily reach a higher speed than you are used to. We therefore
recommend that you first try the Babboe cargo bike in a low traffic environment and without children in the
cargo bike. This is the best and safest way to get used to riding your new cargo bike. Only turn on the pedal
assistance once you feel confident about safely cycling on the Babboe cargo bike. We recommend that you pay
attention and reduce speed to walking pace when turning corners. The pedal assistance will stop if you stop
pedalling. Once you start pedalling again, the pedal assistance will automatically start again.
Your first experience cycling on your Babboe Max with pedal assistance enabled will, most likely, feel very
different to a non-electric (cargo) bike. It is easier than you might be used to. We recommend to use a low pedal
assistance level when starting to cycle from stand. Also, if you are cycling slowly, we recommend using a low
level; when you increase speed you can increase the level of pedal assistance. To avoid dangerous situations
and to cycle more efficiently and economically use the highest levels only when needed. The pedal assistance is
legally limited to a speed of 16km/h. This means that when you reach a speed of 16 km/h, your cargo bike will no
longer be supported by pedal assistance.
If the pedal assistance is turned off, it is slightly more strenuous to cycle on this Babboe cargo bike in
comparison to a non-electric cargo bike.
IMPORTANT! PLEASE NOTE:
• Change the pedal assistance to the 0 level or switch the system off completely when you step off the Babboe
cargo bike. Never walk with the pedal assistance activated because the Babboe cargo bike can suddenly move
forward at higher speed if you rotate the pedals by accident. If you wish to turn on the pedal assistance when
walking, use the walkassist function (see ‘Display & Controls’ on the next page)
• Always keep your fingers on the brake levers, so you can respond quickly if you have to brake. Stop pedalling
when braking and try to brake with both hands simultaneously and evenly. Hold both brake levers tight when
stationary with the pedal assistance in gear, for example by a traffic light.
• Switch the pedal assistance off when cycling on a bad or slippery road or when you want to cycle slowly.
Shifting Gears
Your Babboe cargo bike has 7 gears. When cycling you can shift gears from 1 to 7. Through the shifter (right on the
handlebar) you can select the desired gear. Of course it is also possible to use your Babboe cargo bike without
electric assistance. When the motor is off, you can simply use the 7 gears.
IMPORTANT! PLEASE NOTE:
• Your bike features a Shimano derailleur system. Unlike a hub gear, you need to keep cycling (but without force
on the pedals) when you shift gears. This means that you have to downshift before stopping (for example,
at traffic lights).
• Make sure you always start in first or second gear. You can not shift gears from standstill.
• Never pedal backwards! The chain can fall off and it can cause damage to the Babboe cargo bike.
