15.2.2 Use of hub gears

Important: In addition, observe the

corresponding manufacturer's

instructions for your hub gears or

for your control element.

Your hub gears have either a gear lever or

a twist grip shifter as the associated control

element.

• For shifting with gear lever:

Press the lower lever on the control up

to shift up.

Press down the upper lever on the

control element to shift down.

• For shifting with twist grip shifter:

Turn the twist grip shifter in or against

the direction of travel to shift up or down.

Hub gears with step display (does not

apply to continuously variable hub gears):

Make sure that the set speed is displayed

in the center of the display field on the twist

grip shifter to ensure that it is set correctly.

16 Suspensions

16.1 General information

16.1.1 Functionality of suspension

components

Suspension components include a spring

(exposed or inside the component) that

operates either mechanically or pneumati-

cally, depending on the model.

During compression, the spring is com-

pressed by the force acting on the sus-

pension component. When the spring then

moves back to its previous (relaxed) shape

during extension, it pushes the suspension

component to its original position. Depend-

ing on the model, hydraulic dampers provide

better control during compression/rebound.

Available suspension components

Depending on the model, your e-bike has

one or more of the following suspension

components:

• A suspension fork.

For more information on the function

and position on the e-bike, refer to chap-

ter 16.2 “Suspension forks”.

• a coil-sprung seat post.

For more information on the function

and position on the e-bike, refer to chap-

ter 16.4 “Suspension seat posts”.

• A rear shock absorber.

For more information on the function

and position on the e-bike, refer to chap-

ter 16.3 “Chainstay damper”.

16.1.2 Suspension component

adjustment

To ensure the function of the respective sus-

pension, the frameset must be adjusted to

the cyclist's weight and the range of use.

• Have your suspension components

adjusted by a FLYER specialist dealer or

have a FLYER specialist dealer instruct

you on the correct adjustment of the

respective component.

Important: Note that suspension

components may need to be read-

justed if you drive with a higher

load, for example, during a ride.

You can adjust the resistance of the spring to

compression via the yield (spring tension).25

The yield is the distance by which the sus-

pension element is compressed when the

cyclist is located on the center of the bicycle.

The yield preloads the suspension element

and keeps the rear wheel on the ground in

case of low loads and slight bumps, improv-

ing grip and traction in rough terrain. The

compliance is usually 25% of the total avail-

able spring travel.

To tune the compliance of your suspension

element, you need to adjust the spring rate/

air pressure. When you adjust the air pres-

sure, the overall rigidity of the suspension

fork also changes. The more you inflate the

suspension element, the harder it becomes.

By means of the rebound and compres-

sion stage of the hydraulic damper, you

can set the speed at which the spring com-

presses or decompresses.26

25 The weaker the spring tension (i.e. the resistance to

compression) is set, the easier/the further the spring

can be compressed.

26 The weaker the compression or rebound damping is

set, the easier/the faster the spring moves back to its

original position.
