Best Practices for Extending Range and Battery Life
Notice:
It is recommended that users pay close attention and ride within the following limitations to ensure the hub motor
does not overheat or become damaged from excessive loading.
o Do not climb hills steeper than 15% in grade.
o Pedal to assist the motor when climbing hills and accelerating from a stop.
o Avoid sudden starts and stops.
o When climbing hills reduce the power output to 500 watts or less. This can be accomplished by pedaling with the bike
while in pedal assist modes 1 or 2.
o Accelerate slowly.
Parking, Storage and Transport
Please follow these basic parking, storage and transport tips to ensure your bike is well cared for on and off the road.
o When pushing the vehicle manually, turn off the power to avoid accidental acceleration from the motor.
o It is recommended to park indoors.
o Switch the power off, and any lights to conserve battery. Remove the key from the bike and ensure the battery is
locked to the frame or removed and brought with you for security.
o In public places, your Rad Power Bike must be parked in accordance with local rules and regulations.
o If you have to park outdoors in rain, or wet conditions you should only leave your Rad Power Bike outside for a few
hours and proceed to park the bike in a dry location afterwards in order to allow all the systems to dry out. Much like
a regular bike, use in wet conditions mandates a more regular maintenance schedule to ensure your bike does not
become rusty, corroded and to ensure all systems are always working safely.
o Do not park, store, or transport your Rad Power Bike on a rack that is not designed for the size and weight of the bike.
o Wide tires, as used on Rad Power Bikes, cannot fit into all bike racks, please select an appropriate rack for the width of
tires used on your bike.
