6.2 Electric Assist Modes

The Acer Momentum offers both Pedal Assist (PAS) and Throttle modes.

• Assistenza alla pedalata (PAS): When engaged, the motor provides assistance as you pedal. The level of assistance can be adjusted via the LCD display.
• Modalità acceleratore: Use the throttle control to engage the motor without pedaling. This mode is typically used for quick acceleration or maintaining speed without effort.

6.3 Cambio marcia

The cycle is equipped with Shimano 7-speed gears for adapting to various terrains.

Figura 6.2: Close-up of the rear wheel showing the Shimano 7-speed gears and the Bafang hub motor, which provides electric assistance.

Use the gear shifter on the handlebar to change gears. Shift to lower gears for climbing hills and higher gears for flat terrain or descents. Always shift gears while pedaling lightly to ensure smooth transitions and prevent damage to the drivetrain.

6.4 Sistema frenante

The Acer Momentum features dual mechanical disc brakes for reliable stopping power.

• The left brake lever typically controls the front wheel brake.
• The right brake lever typically controls the rear wheel brake.
• Apply both brakes simultaneously and gradually for controlled stopping. Avoid sudden, hard braking, especially with the front brake, to prevent skidding.

6.5 Hydraulic Suspension

The front hydraulic suspension enhances comfort on varied surfaces.

Figura 6.3: Detail of the front hydraulic telescopic suspension, designed to absorb shocks and provide a smoother ride.

The suspension can be locked out for more efficient pedaling on smooth roads or unlocked for absorbing shocks on rougher terrain. Refer to the suspension fork manufacturer's instructions for specific adjustment procedures.

7. Manutenzione

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your electric cycle.

• Cura della batteria: Caricare regolarmente la batteria, anche se non in uso, per mantenerla in buone condizioni. Conservare la batteria in un luogo fresco e asciutto. Evitare di scaricarla completamente frequentemente.
• Pneumatici: Controllare la pressione degli pneumatici prima di ogni uscita. Ispezionare gli pneumatici per verificare la presenza di usura, tagli o forature.
• Freni: Regularly inspect brake pads for wear and ensure brake levers operate smoothly. Adjust brake cables as needed.
• Catena: Mantenere la catena pulita e lubrificata per garantire cambi di marcia fluidi e prevenire la ruggine.
• Pulizia generale: Clean the cycle with a damp panno. Evitare di utilizzare idropulitrici ad alta pressione direttamente sui componenti elettrici.
• Elementi di fissaggio: Controllare periodicamente che tutti i bulloni e i dadi siano ben serrati, soprattutto quelli dei componenti critici come manubrio, ruote e reggisella.
