UNBOXING It is recommended to retain the original packaging for a short period of time and keep it as intact as possible. This original packaging is useful for shipping the bike, should you ever choose to. Since the bikes are heavy, we have a couple of suggestions for removing the bike from the box: If you intend to lift the bike up and out of the box, a second person is recommended. An alternative method is to lie the box on its side and slide the bike out. There are some plastic pieces used as protective packaging: a few examples are a spacer placed between the front fork, and an axle protector on the front wheel. These are not needed for the assembly of the bicycle. Take your time cutting the zip ties used to hold packaging to the bike. There are some similar looking zip ties that are used to secure wires to the frame do not cut ties that are holding wires in place. Some smaller parts are shipped in the box containing the charger be sure to open that box prior to beginning assembly. Included with your bike are the following: EVELO Owner s Manual Keys for the battery Left + Right Pedals Front fender and mounting bolt(s) Charger Assembly tool kit Front Quick Release Skewer 4 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 4 09/06/2017 19:55

REGISTERING YOUR EVELO ELECTRIC BICYCLE Please fill out the warranty form located on our website at www.evelo.com/warranty/ to register your bicycle. Registration is required before we can process a warranty claim. Registration is also a great security feature. Each bike has two unique serial numbers one for the frame and the other for the motor which the authorities can use to identify your bike if it is stolen. The frame s serial number is located on the head tube, just above the front fork. The motor s serial number is on the rear hub motor as shown below. Please note that your keys are unique to your bicycle and EVELO cannot provide exact replacements. We recommend using one key for day to day use, and storing the other. Please take a moment to write your serial numbers here and keep a record in a safe place: MOTOR SERIAL NUMBER:... FRAME SERIAL NUMBER:... EVELO.COM 5 quest_manual_final_single.indd 5 09/06/2017 19:55

WARRANTY Warranty Overview Every EVELO Electric Bicycle comes with a 4 year warranty against manufacturing defects in materials or workmanship on its frame, battery, controller, and motor assembly. This warranty applies only to the original registered owner of the EVELO bicycle and is not transferable. This limited warranty does not apply to normal wear and tear, malfunctions, or failures due to abuse, neglect, improper repair, improper maintenance, alteration, modification, accidents, or other improper use. It is important that you register your new bicycle within 30 days after purchase in order to activate the warranty.

BATTERY CARE & MAINTENANCE The battery provided with your EVELO Electric Bicycle is a high-quality unit that requires very little from the user in terms of care. However, a few things are worth noting with respect to any Lithium Ion battery. To maximize the lifespan of your battery, we suggest an initial conditioning charge of 12 hours. After that, connect it to the charger as needed. While there is no need to recharge the battery following short trips, we recommend not leaving a battery partially discharged and especially not completely discharged for extended periods of time. A typical charge takes 4-6 hours (longer in very cold temperatures) to complete. The battery will perform best if you do NOT leave it plugged in constantly, since charging/ discharging keeps the electrons in the unit moving, which improves longevity. Battery Storage If you store your battery for 30 days or longer, it is critical that you keep it in a place that is temperature controlled and give it a full 12-hour conditioning charge every 30-60 days. Using Your Charger The charger that comes with your bike has internal controls that prevent overcharging of the battery. First, plug the charger into the battery. Then connect the wire connections at the charger block to and make sure the cord is fully seated. Then plug it into a 120v AC outlet. The light on the charger should be RED, and that light will change to GREEN when the battery is fully charged. Do not leave the unit plugged in for extended periods of time. In addition, do not use the charger unit in poorly ventilated spaces such as closets or drawers, as it may overheat. Connect your battery to the charger as shown in the below photograph ( located on the front, left side of main tube). 8 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 8 09/06/2017 19:55

Environmental Conditions Temperature extremes can affect your battery. Please keep it within the following temperature ranges, as suggested by the battery manufacturer: Charging: 32 degrees to 113 degrees F (0 degrees 45 degrees C) Discharging and Storage: -4 degrees to 140 degrees F (-20 degrees to 60 degrees C) Battery port Descriptions NOTE A device connected to this USB port should be mounted to the handle bars, not placed anywhere on the rider as that creates an un-safe situation. Make sure the cord is clear of the front wheel and allows for free movement of the handlebars. ASSEMBLY OF YOUR EVELO ELECTRIC BICYCLE NOTE If you do not have the ability or skill to assemble the bicycle yourself, please take it to a local bike shop for professional assembly. Of course, our Customer Service Team can help you with the process if needed. Tools to complete the job are included, and some of the smaller pieces are packed inside the charger box to prevent loss. Proper assembly is extremely important for the safe and smooth operation of your electric bicycle. Please read through the entire assembly instructions before beginning. EVELO.COM 9 quest_manual_final_single.indd 9 09/06/2017 19:55

ASSEMBLY STEP 1 Extend the Folding Stem and Handlebars 1. Hold the frame with one hand, and lift the handlebar assembly to unfold it until upright. 2. Close the locking lever until it clicks. 1 2 STEP 2 Install Front Wheel 1. The front wheel attaches to the bike with a quick-release type of skewer. After locating the skewer, remove the nut on the end opposite the lever, and slide one of the conical springs onto the skewer wide-end first. 2. Once the spring is against the lever s nut, slide the skewer through the axle so that the lever is on the same side as the brake disc. 10 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 10 09/06/2017 19:55

3. Now slide the second spring onto the skewer narrow-end first then screw the nut partially back on. 4. Place the wheel into the fork, taking care to make sure the disc goes into the brake caliper. Lower the kickstand. 5. With the axle fully seated into the fork dropouts (the slots that accept the axle), and the lever in the OPEN position, turn the nut to adjust the clamping pressure, and swing the lever rearward to the CLOSED position, where you will feel noticeable resistance. The lever should leave a slight impression in your hand, and the lever should be parallel to the center-line of the bike when adjusted properly. STEP 3 Attach Front Fender 1 1. Using the 5mm allen wrench and 10mm open end wrench, remove the nut behind the headlight. 2. From the rear, slide the fender over the tire until the metal tab goes over the headlight bolt. Loosly reinstall the nut. EVELO.COM 11 quest_manual_final_single.indd 11 09/06/2017 19:55

2 3 3. Using a 4mm allen wrench, loosely attach the fender struts on both sides of the front wheel. 4. Adjust the fender so that it doesn t touch the tire, and secure the 2 fender struts and headlight bolt. STEP 4 Tighten Handlebars There is a clamp in the center of the handlebars that allows easy adjustment of brake lever angle. Be sure this Quick Release mechanism is very tight. First, lift the lever and position the handlebars to your preference. Tighten the nut such that when the lever is fully closed, there is significant resistance felt and the lever leaves a slight impression in your hand. STEP 5 Install Seat & Post Adjust the seat to your preferred height by loosening the seat post clamp lever, moving the seat up or down, then securely close the lever. 12 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 12 09/06/2017 19:55

Tighten the nut such that when the lever is fully closed, there is significant resistance felt and the lever leaves slight impression in your hand. STEP 6 Install Pedals Keep in mind that the left and right pedals are threaded differently, and it crucial that they are installed on the correct side of the bicycle. For this reason, they are marked L and R with stickers at the factory. 1. Locate the right-side pedal (marked with an R ). 2. Thread the R pedal clockwise onto the drive-side crank (side of the bike with the belt). 3. Tighten the R pedal clockwise with a 15 mm wrench or the wrench provided. 4. Locate the left-side pedal (marked with an L ). 5. Thread the L pedal COUNTER- CLOCKWISE* onto the non-drive-side crank (side of the bike without the belt). 6. Tighten the L pedal COUNTER- CLOCKWISE with a 15 mm wrench or the wrench provided. NOTE : The left and right pedals are not interchangeable. The left ( L ) pedal and crank are REVERSE-THREADED so that the pedal will not come loose while riding. To TIGHTEN the left pedal, turn COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. To LOOSEN it, turn CLOCKWISE. EVELO.COM 13 quest_manual_final_single.indd 13 09/06/2017 19:55

STEP 7 Removing and Installing the Battery NOTE The bike must be folded at the main hinge to access the battery for removal. See Section 8, Folding. 1. Unplug anything that may be connected to the battery (charger, USB accessory), and switch the battery off: 2. Insert key and unlock battery by turning key counter-clockwise. 3. Grasp battery by the molded recesses and pull rearward. Installation is the reverse of removal. DISC BRAKES You can prevent brake squeal on a new bike by properly embedding the brakes. It is also important to do this when brake pads are replaced. 1. Select an area in which to ride that allows you to reach a moderate speed safely. 2. Accelerate to a moderate speed and apply the brakes evenly, slowing the bike to a walking pace. Do NOT come to a complete stop. Repeat this acceleration andbraking sequence 20 times. Braking power will increase during this process. 3. Next, accelerate to a slightly higher speed and apply the brakes, slowing to a walking pace. Again, do not come to a complete stop. Repeat this sequence 10 times. 4. Allow the brakes to fully cool before riding again. After you complete this embedding process, the brakes should operate at full power without noise. 14 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 14 09/06/2017 19:55

FIT ADJUSTMENTS Many parts of your new EVELO Electric Bicycle can be customized for a personalized fit. Seat Adjustment The seat is easily adjusted up or down by flipping the quick-release lever that clamps the post into the bike. Note that there is a minimum insertion line stamped on the seat post that must be adhered to for safety s sake. (If you need your seat to be higher than permitted with the stock seat post, please contact us.) The seat can also be moved forward and backward by loosening the single bolt on the underside of the seat. Since it slides on its rails, there is no need to remove the bolt just loosen it, adjust, and firmly re-tighten. Loosening this bolt also lets you change the angle of the seat up or down a bit. Again, be sure to re-tighten it firmly if you loosen it to change the seat position in any way. Handlebar Height Adjustment To adjust the handlebars to a customized height: This clamp secures the handlebars to the preferred height. Release the lever, adjust the height, and re-tighten the clamp. Like the other Quick release levers on the bike, tighten the nut such that when the lever is fully closed, there is significant resistance felt and the lever leaves a slight impression in your hand. Tire Inflation The tires have a range of recommended inflation indicated on the sidewall of the tire. Lower pressure will give a softer ride. A higher pressure will provide a firmer ride, but will give the best range per charge. EVELO.COM 15 quest_manual_final_single.indd 15 09/06/2017 19:55

FOLDING This is most easily accomplished from the left side of the bike. 1. First, rotate so that the left crank/ pedal is pointing forward. 2. Fold both pedals by pushing inward to release the locking mechanism, then rotate down. 3. Grasp the quick release lever on the seat clamp, pull away from the bike to loosen the clamp, and lower the seat as far as it will go. Re-secure the clamp with the lever. 4. Raise the kickstand, rotate the plastic lock on the main hinge up, grasp the release lever and rotate rearward. 16 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 16 09/06/2017 19:55

5. Fold the bike so that the front wheel is next to the rear wheel. (This hinge is tight by design. Using your knee at the pivot point may be helpful) 6. Press and slide the lever release button and flip the lever down. Fold the handlebars down. UNFOLDING 1. Lift the handlebars into position, lift the locking lever until it clicks. 2. Unfold the bike s main hinge, flip the main lever into the locked position, and rotate the plastic lock downward. 3. Flip the lever on the seat clamp into the open position, lift the seat to the appropriate height, and close the locking lever. 4. Flip each pedal into the flat position. The internal spring should snap them into place. 5. Double check all quick release locking mechanisms. EVELO.COM 17 quest_manual_final_single.indd 17 09/06/2017 19:55

RIDING YOUR EVELO ELECTRIC BICYCLE PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST Carry out this pre-ride checklist before EVERY RIDE! Make sure the tires are properly inflated. All bicycle tires gradually lose air over time, and this can affect handling, range, and puncture-resistance. Are all the Quick Release levers tight? Are the folding release levers secure and locked? Check both wheels for broken spokes. If you find any, seek service before riding the bike. Are the handlebars tight? If there is any noticeable movement, tighten properly before riding. Visually inspect your tires for cuts, embedded glass, or other signs of possible failure. Make sure that the pedals are screwed in tightly, as damage is possible if they come loose. Make sure the pedal folding mechanisms are fully engaged. Are the brakes working properly? Squeeze the levers before riding to ensure they apply the brakes, and then test them at a very low speed. Turn on the pedal-assist and while riding at a very low speed, make sure the motor turns off when either brake lever is squeezed. 18 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 18 09/06/2017 19:55

YOUR FIRST RIDE Initially, we recommend you take a ride on the bike with the motor turned off. The bike handles differently than traditional bikes you may be used to riding, so it may take a little getting accustomed to. A ride or two without the motor engaged will help you adjust to the differences from a traditional bike, making for an easier transition when you do use the electric assist. When you first use the bike with the motor on, please familiarize yourself with the functions and performance of your bike by riding at slower speeds on flat ground in a safe area. Make sure you are comfortable with the bike in these conditions before increasing speed or riding in more difficult conditions such as bumpy or hilly ground, in traffic, or in less-than-ideal weather. QUICK-START GUIDE TO OPERATING THE DISPLAY PANEL Full instructions for your display panel can be found at http://support.evelo.com/ support/solutions, (Search for Quest Manual ) but some of the most basic functions are listed here for your convenience. Information in the complete manual includes such topics as how to change settings, error code information and so forth. The following images are useful reference. EVELO.COM 19 quest_manual_final_single.indd 19 09/06/2017 19:55

QUICK-START GUIDE TO OPERATING THE DISPLAY PANEL 1. Power On/Off Press and hold Power button for 1 second to turn on/off the display. The Displayautomatically turns off when idle for an extended period. (Default value is 5 minutes.) 2. Pedal Assist Level Short press UP/DOWN button to change the assist level. Top assist level is 5. Level 0 has no motorized assistance. 3. Speed & Mileage mode switch Short press POWER button to change the speed and mileage mode, as follows: AVG SPEED -> MAX SPEED -> REAL TIME SPEED -> ODO -> RANGE -> TIME -> TRIP **If there is no operation for 5 seconds, display will return to Speed (Real-Time) automatically 4. Headlight/backlight On/Off Press and hold UP button for 1 second to turn on/off the headlight and screen backlight. 5. Walking mode (3mph) Press and hold DOWN button for 2 seconds to activate walking mode. Release the button to stop. While Walking Mode is active, the bike will propel itself forward at about 3 MPH. Do be careful not to activate Walking Mode while indoors or in any area where you don t want the bike to move forward. The purpose of this is so you can walk alongside your bike when you choose not to ride it. The assist level displayed will change from a number to P, indicating Pedestrian. 6. Data Reset Press and hold UP & DOWN buttons together for 1 second to reset temporary data, including AVG Speed / MAX Speed / Trip / Time. * These temporary data are not erased by power off. 20 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 20 09/06/2017 19:55

PEDAL-ASSIST, THROTTLE, AND STOPPING Multiple levels of power assist are provided by the motor. The level of assist provided at any given time can be adjusted using the display panel on the handlebars. A sensor at the crank activates the motor when the pedals have travelled about half of a turn of the crank. The motor continues to run at the preselected level as long as the crank continues to turn as the rider pedals. When first using the power-assist mode, we recommend you start off with a low level of assist until you get used to the power function and the bike in general. The throttle is on the right side of the handlebars and is actuated by depressing the lever. When the bike is powered on, pressing the throttle provides power to the motor even when the rider is not pedaling. The bike must be moving forward for the throttle to work. Brake cut-off switches are built into the brake levers so that power to the motor is turned off when either brake is applied. This is a safety feature. EVELO.COM 21 quest_manual_final_single.indd 21 09/06/2017 19:55

ACHIEVING THE BEST PERFORMANCE FROM YOUR EVELO ELECTRIC BICYCLE RANGE Travelling as far as possible on a single battery charge is dependent upon many variables. Some ways to maximize range include: Contribute by pedaling; Select the lower pedal-assist settings; Use higher inflation pressures for your tires; Ride at moderate speeds (higher speeds bring greater wind resistance, putting a greater load on the motor); and Avoid riding in stop-and-go traffic. In many ways, considerations similar to those one takes to improve gas mileage for a car are likely to be helpful in increasing the range of your new electric bike. Different riders in different conditions can expect different performance. For example, a 130 pound rider who is pedaling on flat terrain will go significantly further on a charge than a 230 pound rider in hilly terrain who is not pedaling. This is why distance percharges are estimated in such a broad spectrum. RIDING IN THE RAIN EVELO Electric Bicycles are designed so that you can operate them in rainy weather. Factory-level design elements keep the electrical components well-protected and nearly all the electrical connections are located within the frame. However, if you do choose to ride in the rain, be aware that necessary braking distances can be increased significantly, and keep in mind that the road surface can be slick. Use caution in wet conditions even if it is not actively raining. 22 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 22 09/06/2017 19:55

Although rain and wet weather is acceptable use, we do recommend that you avoid circumstances where your bike will be immersed in water, such as riding through a deep stream. The bike is water-resistant, but not waterproof. We also recommend that you dry your bike with a soft towel if you having been riding in wet conditions. SAFETY TIPS We recommend the following safety-related procedures: Wear a helmet. Check that the folding lever locks are engaged regularly. Ride in control at all times. Use lights and reflective gear in low light situations. Inspect your bike often especially the brakes and folding mechanisms. Seek maintenance if there are any notable changes in bike performance. Know and observe the rules of the road before cycling. Bike users must follow all road rules. Ride defensively. To motorists, pedestrians, or even other cyclists, you are not as visible as you might think. Always watch for hazardous situations, and be ready to stop or take evasive action at all times. With the assistance of the electric motor, you may be travelling faster than drivers expect beware of cars pulling out in front of you. Avoid road hazards. Watch for and avoid potholes, drain grates, railroad tracks, loose road material, and other hazards. Use both the front and the rear brakes together for best performance. Using ONLY the rear will significantly increase your stopping distance. EVELO.COM 23 quest_manual_final_single.indd 23 09/06/2017 19:55

MAINTENANCE OF YOUR EVELO ELECTRIC BICYCLE As with any mechanical device or machine, you will get longer life and better performance from your electric bicycle if you adhere to a basic maintenance schedule. In addition to the items in the Pre-Ride Checklist section, we recommend the following: Tires Check tire pressure weekly. All bike tires lose air naturally over time. The Gates Carbon belt requires virtually no maintenance. The one exception is proper tensioning if the rear wheel is removed. While you can get it tight enough to ride by pulling the wheel rearward firmly, to tune the belt to exact specifications, please visit http://support.evelo.com/support/solutions and search for Gates. More detailed instructions are there. Cables Each month, visually inspect cable ends for fraying and replace if it is present. Replace all cables and housings annually. Nuts and bolts Check all nuts and bolts monthly for tightness. Cleaning Clean the bike whenever excess dirt is apparent. Avoid high-pressure washing, especially near the motor, at places where wires enter/exit the frame, or of the battery and wheel/crank bearings. Wheels Check for straightness on a monthly basis, and more often if you have experienced a rough ride or sudden impact. Have the wheels serviced if there is notable side-to-side wobble. Brakes Inspect your brakes at least once per month. If a brake lever can be squeezed all the way to the handlebar grip, there is a basic adjustment that can be made. Contact us for guidance, or visit http://support.evelo.com/support/ solutions for information. If your brakes are worn beyond this adjustment, either take the bike to a local bike shop for professional service, or contact EVELO for additional instructions. Tune-Up We recommend a full-service tune-up annually by a professional bicycle mechanic. 24 EVELO.COM quest_manual_final_single.indd 24 09/06/2017 19:55
