Preparation and measures for Electric Bike trips

Electric Bikes are becoming a more and more convenient, environmentally friendly, and economical means of transportation for short-distance travel in modern life. What are the preparations and countermeasures before traveling on an Electric Bike? Let's take a look.

Here is the content:

l Insufficient tire pressure

l Inflexible handlebar rotation

l The front and rear wheels are not flexible

l When checking the circuit

l Before traveling

l You should also check the working condition of the motor before the trip

l Electric Bike should check the lights, horn, etc. before using

l Check whether the main fasteners are tightened before the trip

Insufficient tire pressure

It will increase the friction between the foldable ebike tires and the road, thus shortening the range; it will also make the handlebars less flexible and affect the comfort and safety of riding. When the air pressure is insufficient, you should replenish the air pressure in time. The air pressure of the tires should be by the recommended air pressure in the "Electric Bike Instruction Manual" or the air pressure on the tire surface.

Inflexible handlebar rotation

If the handlebars of an Electric Bike have stagnation, stiffness, or tightness, they should be lubricated or adjusted in time. For lubrication, use grease, calcium-based or lithium-based grease; for adjustment, loosen the front fork lock, rotate the front fork upper gear, and lock the front fork lock after the handlebar rotation flexibility reaches the requirement.

The front and rear wheels are not flexible

It will increase the friction of turning foldable ebike wheels and increase the power consumption, thus reducing the range. Therefore, once the failure occurs, lubrication and maintenance should be done in time. Lubrication generally uses grease, calcium-based, or lithium-based grease; if it is axle skin failure, you can replace the steel ball or axle skin, if it is a motor failure, you should go to a professional maintenance unit for repair.

When checking the circuit

Open the Electric Bike power switch, check whether the circuit is smooth, whether the plug is firmly and reliably plugged, whether the fuse works normally, especially whether the battery output terminal and the cable connection are firm and reliable. Troubleshooting should be done in time.

Before traveling

You should check the battery power, and judge whether the battery power of the Electric Bike is sufficient according to the mileage of the trip. If the power level is not sufficient, you should ride with human power to avoid the battery under voltage.

You should also check the working condition of the motor before the trip

Start the Electric Bike motor and adjust its speed to observe and listen to the operation of the motor, if there are any abnormalities, it should be repaired in time.

Electric Bike should check the lights, horn, etc. before using

Especially for night travel. The headlight should be bright and the light beam should generally fall in a range of 5-10 meters in front of the front; the horn should sound loud and not hoarse; the turn signal should flash normally and the steering indication should be normal, the flashing frequency of the light should be 75-80 times/minute; the Electric Bike meter display should be normal.

Check whether the main fasteners are tightened before the trip

The recommended force distance of each fastener of an Electric Bike is generally 18N/m for the handle barrel, handle barrel, saddle, saddle barrel, front wheel, rear wheel, middle axle, locking mother and rear wheel, and 30N/m for the middle axle locking mother and rear wheel.
