SERIAL NUMBER assume the responsibility of that risk: you need to know and practice the rules of safe and
responsible riding as well as proper use and maintenance. Proper use and maintenance of your
bicycle reduces the risk of injury. If you have any questions or do not understand any aspect of
using or maintaining your bike, take responsibility for your safety and consult with your local
bicycle shop, or contact us for assistance.
This manual is not intended as a comprehensive use, service, repair, or maintenance manual.
Please see your local bicycle shop for all service, repairs, or maintenance. Your local bicycle shop
may also be able to refer you to classes, clinics, or books on bicycle use, service, repair, and main-
tenance.
Your Aipas eBike is classified as an EPAC (Electrically Power Assisted Cycle, otherwise known as
a Pedelec), and is referred to in this manual as a bicycle unless otherwise noted.
Intended Use
The intended use of your Aipas eBike is to be ridden by one rider at an appropriate time and
place for general transportation or recreational use. Any other use is prohibited and may result
in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH.
Your bicycle is NOT INTENDED for off-road or mountain bicycle use or any kind of jumping. Some
of these bicycles have suspension features, but these features are designed only to add comfort,
not off-road capabilities.
Riders should be proficient cyclists (ages 16+), riding on paved surfaces where the tires are always
on the ground, on roadways, or dedicated bicycle-only lanes where permitted by law (not on
pedestrian-use shared lanes or sidewalks). Your bicycle should not be used to tow another
bicycle. For trailer towing, consult this Owner’s Manual and the trailer owner’s manual for towing
instructions and towing compatibility.

Your electric bicycle can withstand light rain and small splashes, but it is not designed to be
subjected to inclement weather, extremely heavy showers, or submersion in water. The
electric bike's components have an IP rating of 65. Damage caused by water damage will not
be covered by the warranty.
Riding at Night
Riding at night comes with more risks than riding during the day due to decreased visibility;
riders are encouraged to exercise increased caution in nighttime conditions.
Turn lights ON for safety. For increased visibility, ensure that the front headlight and rear
taillight are turned ON and adjusted so that other people on the road can see them clearly.
Also check your front, rear, and wheel reflectors.
Riders should wear reflective clothing at night. You may want to attach additional flashing
lights to your clothing or helmet.

Tighten fasteners to the correct torque to prevent serious injury or death. Bolts that are too tight
can cause the stem/seat post to stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can cause the stem/-
seat post to move and wear. Either condition can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt and result
in a crash. See Tightening Torque (p. 21).
A stem/seat post that is positioned too high can damage the bike and cause you to lose control
and crash. Select a height that is comfortable for you, but DO NOT extend past the safety line
position. To adjust your stem/seat post, unlatch the clamp, move the handlebars to the desired
height, and close the clamp. Re-tighten the stem/seat post clamp to the recommended torque
(see Tightening Torque on p. 21).
Front and back adjustment: Loosen nuts on both sides of the seat. Make sure the clamp mecha-
nism is clamping on the straight part of the seat rails and is not touching the curved part of the
rails. Ensure that you are using the recommended torque on the clamping fastener(s). See Tight-
ening Torque (p. 21).
Seat angle adjustment: Most people prefer a horizontal seat, but you may prefer the seat nose
angled slightly up or down. Loosen the clamp bolt to allow any serrations on the clamp mecha-
nism to disengage before changing the seat angle, and to fully re-engage the serrations before
you tighten the clamp bolt to the recommended Tightening Torque (p. 21).

Thinks To Know Before The Ride Thinks To Know Before The Ride
Safety Tips
The acceleration of your eBike might be faster than anticipated and may feel unadaptable at
first. Before your ride, Please use the lowest level of pedal assist (PAS 1) and become familiar with
the operation of your Aipas eBike by practicing starting, stopping, cornering, and navigating
obstacles in a safe environment away from other bicycles, pedestrians, and/or vehicles. You
should also pay particular attention to terrain conditions as you may approach obstacles faster
than expected.
The Pedal Assist may be activated as soon as you step onto the pedals and the bicycle is in
motion. ALWAYS be seated on the bicycle and engage at least one brake before starting to pedal.
DO NOT place one foot on a pedal then throw your other leg over the bicycle or your eBike could
accelerate unexpectedly.
