The Brakes
Front Brakes
The brakes on your scooter are magnetic brakes - they weigh signi cantly less than standard brake drum or
hydraulic brakes. Using these brakes helps to reduce the weight of the scooter and improve its performance.
They also provide good friction-grip when they activated.
The Chain and Pedals*
The pedals are connected to the rear wheel. Along with the chain, they provide a human- powered “drive
train”. This is an important part of your scooter. The pedals are not removable and should not be removed.
Shock Absorbers
Your scooter is equipped with Reverse Shock System shock absorbers. These e ective but simple devices
absorb the energy from bumps and dips, and allow you to have a much more comfortable ride. The Reverse
Shock System is superior to normal Monoshock shock absorbers usually found on scooters, and provides for
a much more comfortable ride.
While they are very resilient, please note that very sharp or large shocks, such as drops from a height of 15
cm or more, can cause serious damage to your shock absorbers. Replacing them is a complex and time-con-
suming task, so do be careful when dropping from larger heights.
*Your scooter may or may not have pedals.
