Question: Doesn't it require a lot of effort to ride the bike
if you turn off the motor or when the battery is
out of power?
Answer: No, the bike is fitted with a brushless DC motor and a
magnetic friction-free torque meter, as a result of which a
turned-off motor gives no noticeable resistance. Furthermore,
the bike is equipped with 7, 8 or 24 gears so that you can
select a suitable low gear.
Question: How fast can I go with this bike?
Answer: That's up to you. However, electric assistance is no
longer provided at speeds above 25 kph. This is a legal
requirement for bicycles with motor assistance.
Question: How do I switch the bike off?
Answer: The best way to switch the bike off is using the
on/off button on the display. Press this button for about
5 seconds to switch the entire bike off. If you park your bike
but don't switch it off, it will switch itself off automatically
after 5 minutes. After switching off the electric assistance,
you may remove the battery for charging if required.
Question: There's less electric assistance when down to
the last two segments; is that correct?
Answer: That is correct. There is less assistance in the eco-
setting, as the battery then operates at less than 40%
capacity. This has been programmed to ensure maximum
operating range. If you require more assistance, we
recommend using the boost setting when there is only
20% residual capacity left (one segment).
Question: Isn't a bike with the Innergy system really
heavy?
Answer: Definitely not as heavy as you might think, although
the battery and motor obviously result in weight gain. The
lightweight motor weighs about 3.0 kilograms (6.6 pounds)
and the detachable battery 2.5 kilograms (5.5 pounds). Thus,
in total you have to add 5.5 kilograms to the weight of the
"standard bike". The Orange Innergy, for instance, weighs in at
26.8 kilograms (59 pounds).
