Step by step
Tap a step when it’s done to keep your place.
- Stop and cool down
In the shade, switched off, until the hubs feel cool.
- Fix any drag
Rubbing brakes and soft tyres both make motors work harder. Pump tyres into range.
- Change how you ride
Lower mode or less throttle on long climbs. Short breaks on big hills.
When to take it to a shop
If it overheats on short, gentle, flat rides.
