Rider Education

Learn first.
Ride smarter.

Simple guidance for safer, more confident electric bike and scooter riding.

01

Protect & Be Seen

Wear a properly fitted helmet. Use bright or reflective clothing, front and rear lights, and reflectors.

02

Pre-Ride Safety Check

Check tire pressure and condition, test both brakes, and inspect steering, folding points, lights, throttle, and fasteners.

03

Charge Safely

Use only the manufacturer-supplied or approved charger. Charge while awake and present, and stop using a damaged battery.

04

Start Slow

Begin in the lowest practical power mode and practice braking and turning in a clear area.

05

Ride Defensively

Obey signs and signals, watch driveways and parked cars, signal turns, and slow down near pedestrians.

06

Care for Your Ride

Keep tires inflated, brakes responsive, fasteners secure, and electrical connections clean and dry.

Battery knowledge

Understand your battery voltage.

Voltage can help identify a pack and show its general condition, but it is not a precise fuel gauge. Readings change with load, temperature, cell chemistry, battery age, and the battery-management system.

Common lithium-ion battery pack reference

48V13S54.6V39–42V
52V14S58.8V42–45V
60V16S67.2V48–51V
72V20S84.0V60–64V

Important: These values are general reference points for common lithium-ion configurations—not repair instructions. Always follow the battery and vehicle manufacturer’s specifications. Never charge a swollen, damaged, unusually hot, leaking, hissing, or smoking battery.

01

Use the matched charger

Use only the charger supplied or specifically approved for the exact battery and vehicle.

02

Charge while present

Charge while awake and nearby, away from exits, heat, direct sunlight, and flammable materials.

03

Watch for warning signs

Stop using the battery if you notice swelling, damage, unusual heat, odor, hissing, popping, or smoke.
