Easy controls
The Sundowner features both throttle control and computer controlled pedal assist.

Before riding, switch on the battery (green switch from under the rear light) and get onto the bike.
Switch on the electrics by pressing the middle button next to the trip computer on the left handlebar.
The LCD shows level 1 assistance. There are 5 level of assistance, 1 provides the least assistance, 5 the highest.
Press the up and down button to select the desired level.
The gears are controlled by a twist grip handle.
Simply twist the handle, you can hear a tiny click as the Nexus gearbox (built into the rear wheel hub) shifts through its 7 gears.
The wonderful Nexus gearbox lets you change gears any time, even when remaining stationary!
As well as pedal assist, the Sundowner has a throttle on the left handlebar.
If you start pedalling, the motor will kick in and supply between 30% to about 80% of the energy depending on the level of assistance you selected.
If you don't want to pedal, use the throttle (by simply twisting the left twist grip gently down towards you).
The bike will woosh you along nicely - Tremendous fun!
You can go up moderate hills up to 6% gradient on throttle alone. If you're going up a steep hill you will need to pedal a little along with the motor. Even so, the motor will take most of the strain, so going uphill is no problem.
The bike is also very pleasant to pedal with no power.
Good suspension, 7 gears, light alloy frame and excellent Velo seat make this a good choice for commuting or leisure.
Also great for low maintenance - an enclosed drive system protects against dust and water for everyday use, especially in the winter.
You won't have to grease anything for a whole year!
and its Nexus gears and roller brake require virtually no looking after at all.
This bike has been given an EN15194 certificate.
Maximum speed is 15mph and computer controlled.
