26YOUR FIRST RIDE
Only change gears while the bike is in motion. Shifting gears at
a standstill may damage the drivetrain. Do not change gears too
quickly as doing so could cause the chain to fall off and the rider to
lose control, which could result in serious injury. If the chain falls off,
turn the bike off before xing the chain. If you do not, and the motor
turns on, you could sustain serious injury.
7 SPEED GEAR SYSTEM
The Lectric XP comes with a 7 speed Shimano freewheel (Note: the
freewheel is the cluster of sprockets on the rear wheel of the bike).
This allows the rider to maintain a comfortable level of effort and
pedaling speed throughout different terrains. For instance, while
pedaling in lowest gear (the largest sprocket), it will be easier to
pedal up hills. In the highest gear (the smallest sprocket), the rider
will be able to reach higher speeds on at or downhill terrain. 1st
gear is the lowest gear of this drivetrain, while 7th gear is the highest
gear. Use the thumb shifter on the right handlebar to shift gears up or
down. To shift up, press the lower button marked with the “+” sign. To
shift down, push the lever on the top of the shifter marked with the “-”
sign. A photo of the shifter can be seen in the photo below.
