A4. BATTERY

Proper maintenance of the batteries will maximize their lifespan and available ride time. ROULIK Bikes warrants your new batteries from the date of purchase but only if properly cared for. Refer to the limited warranty for details. ROULIK Bikes uses Li-Ion (Lithium Ion) batteries in all of our electric bicycles. These are very user friendly types of batteries when cared for properly. A4.1 Installing and Removing the Battery To remove the battery, unfasten the lock which is located along the battery’s box. Remove the battery by pulling it out. To put the battery back into place, insert the battery along to the guide rail. Push it closely against the controller box. Fasten the lock. Figure A4.1: Battery installation procedure


A4.2: Charging the Battery The battery’s voltage is indicated by the 4 LED lights located on the side of the battery, and also on the display unit located on the handlebar. Your battery must be charged in an ambient temperature, on a non-flammable and dry surface, away from any sources of heat, humidity or flammable materials. Also, it must not be covered. Here are the steps to be followed when charging your battery: Step 1 Turn the battery off, the LED lights will be off Step 2 Plug the charger into the socket and then insert the

charger’s plug into the battery. Step 3 The charger’s LED indicators lit up in the following

manner: • The red LED lights on: the battery is being charged.(A) • The red LED light becomes green: the battery is full charged; you can unplug the charger. (B)

Figure A4.2: Charger LED indication

Use only the supplied charger for your bicycle. Using any other charger will damage the batteries and void your warranty. It takes 3 - 6 hours for the battery to be fully charged when using the standard charger that’s supplied with your bike (Will vary with model). A4.3: Taking Care of Your Batteries

1. Batteries should be fully charged immediately when they are received for the recommended charge times.


Fully Charge batteries before First Use.

2. Charge batteries at least every 90 days until normal use is resumed.

3. Always store bicycle with fully charged batteries.

4. Never charge the batteries for more than 24 hours.

5. Always disconnect the charger from the wall outlet and bicycle when charging is complete (as indicated by the status on the charger) before storing the bicycle.

6. Do not store batteries below 10º Celsius and never allow batteries to freeze (below 0º Celsius).

7. Bikes are equipped with a 5 minute sleep mode. If no activity is detected after 5 minutes the bike will go into sleep mode to conserve the batteries.

8. Always be sure to turn the bike “OFF” when not in use via the Ignition/Battery Lock or the display switch. If you have left the power on or your product has not been charged for a long period of time, the batteries may reach a stage at which it will no longer hold a charge.

9. Be friendly to the environment. Be sure to recycle your old batteries at a local battery recycling center. Do not throw them in the garbage.

10. Frequent “stops and starts” will drain a battery more quickly than sustained, long-term use.

11. Even with proper care, rechargeable batteries do not last forever. Average battery life depends on use and conditions.

A4.4: Range and Lifespan

The distance the e-bike can cover with a single full charge of the battery ranges from 30 to 70 kilometers, as it depends on many different factors (degree of assistance used, topology, rider’s weight, frequent stops/start-ups, hills, tire pressure, etc.). A4.5: Battery Safety Instructions Your bike's battery is an electric component made up of chemical elements. For your safety, it is imperative that you obey the following rules:


Always handle with great care.

Always keep it away from children.

Do not take it apart or hit, pierce or submerge it.

Keep it away from temperatures exceeding 600

Never create a connection between contacts located at the bottom of the battery.

Never let the battery charge unattended.

Never sleep near a battery that is charging.

Only use the charger that came with the bike or that is supplied by the authorized dealer.

If your battery is damaged, never use it and take it back to the dealer as soon as possible.

A5: MOTOR ROULIK E-Bikes are equipped with geared motor mounted to the rear hub of the bicycles. It is a BLDC motor (Brushless Direct Current) with a voltage of 36V at a maximum output power of 250W and maximum output torque of 30Nm. A6: CONTROLLER UNIT ROULIK E-Bikes are coming with factory tuned controller unit. The user need not do anything with it. The controller unit is placed inside the battery box holder. Controller unit drives the motor and protects the motor and other components by avoiding high current to pass through the system. All the wired connections from other electric components are connected to the controller unit. Details of connections are mentioned in this manual later. A7: THROTTLE Throttles are equipped on some models of ROULIK E-Bikes. Throttles operate by rotating the throttle towards the rider much like a motorcycle. The more you twist the throttle, the faster the motor system will propel the bicycle. The throttle will actuate the motor in all the assist level (1-5).


Once you have twisted the throttle all the way, the motor will accelerate you to its full speed of approximately 25Kmph. The speed of your E-Bike is limited to 25Kmph due to ARAI terms. A8: PEDAL ASSIST SYSTEM (PAS) Using the Pedal Assist function allows the rider to have the bike match their pedaling power at five levels of support (1-5), High giving you the most assistance. Once you start pedaling, a rotation sensor fitted to the Bottom Bracket of bicycle picks up your movement and power integrates seamlessly while you ride. Just pedal and go. Once you use the brakes or quit pedaling, the power is deactivated and you need to pedal again (lightly) to reactivate pedal assistance. It is possible to be in Pedal Assist Mode and use the Throttle for an extra boost. However, this will significantly drain battery power. Note: When only using the Throttle mode you will use more battery power in general and thus shorten range of the bicycle per charge. A9: E-BRAKE E-Brakes are a safety accessory that cuts power to your motor when you apply your bike’s brakes. These are high quality long lasting brakes which use a hall-effect sensor and a small magnet instead of an electro mechanical switch.


A10: CONNECTION DIAGRAM SCHEMATIC

Figure A10: Electrical connection schematic diagram The various components such as display, motor, throttle, etc. are connected to the controller unit via electrical cables. ROULIK E-Bikes are coming with all the connections made. Users are advised not to remove any of the connections. A schematic of the connection diagram is given below.

B2.4 Derailleurs

Although the derailleurs are initially tuned and adjusted at the factory,

you will need to inspect and re-adjust before riding the bicycle.

B2.4.1 Rear Derailleur Adjustment

To adjust the smallest sprocket position

1. Move the chain to smallest rear sprocket and largest front chain ring.

2. Loosen the cable clamp bolt until it is free. (See figure 4.4.1)

3. Check whether the smallest sprocket, chain and both derailleur pulleys are in alignment.

4. If they are not in alignment, turn the High limit screw (See figure 4.4.1) until they are aligned.

5. While pulling the cable, move the shift lever to smallest sprocket position.

6. On the shift lever turn the barrel adjuster fully clockwise. On the rear derailleur turn the barrel adjuster fully clockwise, then turn one round counter-clockwise.

7. Pull the derailleur cable tight, and tight the bolt with 5-6.8 Nm (44-60-In-Lb)

Figure B2.4.1 Rear Derailleur Parts View


To adjust the largest sprocket position

1. Turn the low limit screw (See figure 4.4.1) until the derailleur can move freely.

2. Carefully move the chain to largest sprocket and smallest chain ring position.

3. Move the rear derailleur pulleys in alignment with the largest sprocket.

4. Turn the low limit screw clockwise until it doesn’t turn easily.

To align the index system

1. Move the chain to largest chain ring and smallest sprocket position.

2. Turn the rear shifter to one click.

3. Check whether the chain shifted to second smallest sprocket.

4. If the chain does not change gear or if the chain makes noise, turn the barrel adjuster slightly counter clockwise.

5. If the chain shifted to third smallest sprocket, turn the barrel adjuster clockwise until the derailleur pulleys align with second smallest sprocket.

Note: If the derailleur cannot be adjusted with these steps, derailleur

hanger may be out of alignment. In this case, contact our Customer

Care Cell or take your bicycle to the Authorized dealer.

B2.4.2 Front Derailleur Adjustment

The front derailleur has two adjusting screws, Low limit screw and

High limit screw. The low limit screw limits how far the front derailleur

and chain move towards the frame. The high limit screw limits how far

the front derailleur and chain move away from the frame.

Setting the low limit screw

1. Shift the chain onto third largest rear sprocket and smallest front chain ring.

2. Turn the lever barrel adjuster all the way in. (See figure 4.4.2)

3. Loosen the cable clamp nut.


4. Turn the low limit screw so the left inside edge of chain guide and chain just do not touch.

5. Remove the slack from the cable wire and tighten the Nut of the cable clamp.

Setting the high limit screw

1. Shift the chain onto largest front chain ring and smallest rear sprocket.

2. Turn the high limit screw (See figure B2.4.2) so that right inside edge of chain guide and chain just do not touch.

3. Shift through every gear, using the barrel adjusters to fine tune each transition. The barrel adjuster for the front derailleur is located on the front shifter where the cable comes out of the shifter. Clockwise will loosen the cable tension and direct the chain closer to the frame while counter clockwise will tighten the cable tension and direct the chain away from the frame.

Figure B2.4.2 Front Derailleur Parts View


B2.5 Shift System

A shift lever controls the front and rear derailleur to change to gears

from one to another. Before each ride, check that the shift levers are

firmly attached to the handlebar. Check the operation of shift lever by

inspecting derailleur. The position of shift levers can be adjusted on the

handlebar. The number of gears on a bicycle varies depending on the

type and model.

There is no “correct gear” to ride the bicycle. The “correct gear” is

the one that is comfortable to you.

To select a gear or sprocket combination while riding

While pedaling, shift the chain onto different front and rear sprocket

combinations. You will feel a difference in the rhythm and ease of

pedaling. Shift the chain to the gear that allows you to pedal at a

rhythm and effort that is comfortable to you.

When riding uphill or against the wind, you may wish to keep the chain

on the smallest front sprocket (A) and shift the chain on the rear

sprocket cluster (B). (See figure B2.5.1)

Figure B2.5.1 Lower gear combinations


These are the lower gear combinations. They allow you to pedal easier

and at a faster rhythm, but with less distance traveled per pedal

revolution. For the best performance in this case, do not use the

smallest rear sprocket (C).

Figure 4.5.2 Higher gear combinations

When riding downhill or with the wind, you may wish to keep the

chain on the largest front sprocket (D) and shift the chain on the rear

sprocket cluster. (See figure B2.5.2)

These are the higher gear combinations. They allow you to pedal

harder and at a slower rhythm, but with more distance traveled per

pedal revolution. For the best performance in this case, do not use the

largest rear sprocket (E).

On bicycles with three front sprockets, you may wish to keep the chain

on the middle front sprocket (F) and shift the chain on the rear

sprocket cluster.

These gear combinations are middle range which overlaps some of the

higher and some of the lower gear combinations.


Figure 4.5.3 Middle gear combinations

B2.6 Brakes

The brake system allows the rider to stop or slow down the bicycle and

is essential for the safety of rider. The rider must ensure both rear and

front brakes are fitted and working properly before each ride. If not,

we recommend to adjust or refit it as given in this manual. We highly

recommend to consult the Customer Care Cell or Authorized dealer for

the brake adjustment.

There are different types of brakes. Disc brakes and V brakes are some

of them. The type of brake used may vary depending on the model you

have.

B2.6.1 Disc Brakes

Disc brakes are sharp, Keep fingers away from the brake

caliper and rotor. If fingers contact the disc brake while rotating

serious injury may occur.


Adjusting the disc brake

A) Center the wheel

1. Rotate the wheel and look at the gap between the rim and fork. If the gap is uneven, loosen the axle nuts and adjust until the wheel and disc rotor are centered.

B) Realign the caliper body

1. Using a 5mm Allen wrench, loosen the two centering adjustment screws. Adjust the caliper body until the gap between the disc rotor and the brake pads in the caliper body is as shown in the figure B2.6.1

2. Then tighten the centering adjustment screws. C) Center the b rake pads

1. Using a 5mm Allen wrench, turn the Brake pad adjusting screw (Figure B2.6.1) to move the brake pads. Clockwise rotation will move the brake pads towards disc rotor and counter-clockwise rotation away from the disc rotor.

2. Adjust the pad until the gap between disc rotor and pads are even on both side and is approximately 1/32 inch.

D) Adjusting the cable tension

1. At the caliper body or brake lever, slightly loosen the jam nut next to the adjustment barrel.

2. Turn the adjust barrel to adjust the cable tension.

3. Turning clockwise will loosen the cable tension and counter-clockwise turning will tighten the cable tension. When you have the brake tension you want then tighten the jam nut.


Figure B2.6.1 Disc brake part view

B2.6.2 RIM BRAKES (V BRAKES)

In rim brakes brake pads apply pressure to the rim. The pressure is

controlled by a hand lever that is connected to the brake by a cable.

A) To adjust the alignment of brake pads

1. Loosen the pad clamp bolt (Figure B2.6.2). 2. Align the brake pads and tighten the clamp bolt with 4.5-6.8

Nm (40-60 In-Lb).

3. Make sure the brake pads engage the rim at ninety degree angle and the pads do not touch the tyre.


Figure B2.6.2 V Brake Parts View

B) To adjust the clearance between brake pad and rim

1. Turn the barrel adjuster (Figure B2.6.2). 2. When you turn the barrel adjuster clockwise, it will increase

the clearance between brake pad and rim. And when you turn it counter-clockwise it will decrease the clearance between pad and rim.

3. If you cannot adjust the clearance with barrel adjuster take your bicycle to our Authorized dealer or contact our Customer Service Unit.


B2.7 Wheels

The wheels hold the rider up when riding and allow him to roll along

smoothly. Its inspection and adjustment are important for the safety.

Wheels include wheel hub, spokes and rim. Common types of wheel

attachment devices are Quick release hub and threaded axle and nut. In

this manual we illustrate the adjustment of Quick release hub only.

Because other type is very common and ROULIK use mostly Quick

release hubs in their models.

B2.7.1 Wheel Installation

Quick Release Hub

Wheel installation with a quick release hub is very easy and anybody

can do it. This mechanism will help to remove the front and rear wheel

for easy transportation and for maintenance purpose. The steps are

described below with figure for representation.

Figure B2.7.1 Quick release hub parts view


To install wheel,

1. Insert the wheels into frame and forks.

2. On models with disc brakes make sure the disc goes between the pads at the caliper.

3. Make sure the quick release skewers are tight. 4. Quick release should be done up so there is strong resistance to

the lever when you close it.

5. Ensure the lever is tucked in against the frame and fork, not sticking out.

To remove a wheel

1. Release the quick release lever, move it to the OPEN position. 2. For the front wheel, loosen the tensioning nut, turn it three

rounds.

3. Move the wheel out of the frame or fork.

B2.8 Tires

Frequently check the tire inflation pressure because all tires lose air

slowly over time. For extended storage, keep the weight of the bicycle

off the tires.

Do not use unregulated air hoses to inflate the tire/tubes. An

unregulated hose can suddenly over inflate bicycle tires and cause

them to burst. Replace worn tires immediately.

WARNING: Do not ride or sit on the bicycle if a tire is under

inflated. This can damage the tire, inner tube and rim.

Inflating the Tires:

1. Use a hand or a foot pump to inflate the tires. Service station meter-regulated air hoses are also acceptable.

2. The maximum inflation pressure is shown on the tire sidewall.


If two inflation pressures are on the tire sidewall, use the higher

pressure for on- road riding and the lower pressure for off-road riding.

The lower pressure will provide better tire traction and a more

comfortable ride.

Figure B2.8.1 inflating the tire

Before adding air to any tire, make sure the edge of the tire (the bead)

is the same distance from the rim, all around the rim, on both sides of

the tire.

If the tire does not appear to be seated correctly, release air from the

inner tube until you can push the bead of the tire into the rim where

necessary.

Add air slowly and stop frequently to check the tire seating and the

pressure, until you reach the correct inflation pressure (See figure

B2.8.1).


B2.9 Crankarms and Bottom Bracket

The crankarms connect the pedals to the bottom bracket. They

transmit power from the rider to the rear wheel. The bottom bracket is

the bearing system that allows the crankarms to turn in the frame.

To check the crankarms

Figure B2.9.1 Crankarms parts view

Both crankarms (A) are tightened to spindle (B) at the factory. Each

month during maintenance make sure the crankarms have not

loosened. If loose, tight them or have them tightened by our Authorized

dealer. Tightening torque required is 44.63 Nm(395 In-Lbs).


To check the bottom bracket

1. Lift the chain from the chainrings.

2. Turn the crankarms so that they are parallel to the seat tube.

3. Try to move the crankarms towards and away from the seat tube.

4. Turn the crankarms. If the crank feels or sounds loose, the movement stops suddenly or you

hear a grinding noise, do not ride your bicycle. The adjustment of the

bottom bracket requires special tools and training. Take your bicycle to

our nearest Authorized dealer for the maintenance.

B2.10 Pedals

Pedals hold the rider’s feet so that he can rotate the cranks.

To install the pedals

1. Apply small amount of grease to each pedal threads.

2. Install right pedal (“R” located on pedal axle or spindle) with pedal wrench by threading into the drive side crank arm in clockwise direction (for reference this is the right side of the bike if you were sitting on the saddle).

3. Install left pedal with pedal wrench by threading into the non-drive side crank arm in a counter clockwise direction.

B2.11 Chain

Chain connects the chainrings (crankarms) to the rear wheel. It

transmits the crank rotation to rear wheel. For bicycles with rear

derailleur, the chain tension need not be inspected. The derailleur

automatically adjusts the chain tension.

But, for bicycles without rear derailleur correct chain tension is

required to prevent chain from falling off.


Use neutral detergent to clean the chain. Do not use alkali-based or

acid based detergent such as rust cleaners as it may result in damage

and/or failure of the chain.

B2.12 Suspension

Bicycle suspension system includes front suspension and rear

suspension. It may vary depends on the model.

The suspension lets the wheels to move up and down to absorb small

bumps while keeping the tire in contact with the ground for better

control. It also helps the rider and bike to absorb large amount of

shocks when landing jumps.

B2.12.1 Front Suspension

Common type of front suspension used is suspension fork. The bottom

part of the fork, which holds the wheel, fits over the tubes that

connects the fork to the frame. When the fork moves up (when the bike

hits a bump), the spring gets compressed and the piston forces fluid

through the orifice.

Figure B2.12.1 Suspension fork part view


Prevent or reduce scratches to the stanchions. If these get nicked from a rock or tool, the rough edge can tear up the dust seal and bushings as it slides past, diminishing the life and performance of the suspension.

Clean the stanchions after every ride with a soft cloth and mild cleaning solution, flossing around the tube and down to the seal in the top of the lowers.

Note: Your suspension fork may have a lockout option (marked as

external compression adjustment), which will allow the rider to lock

the front suspension action for a faster road riding.

B2.12.2 Rear Suspension

Rear suspension is only available on full suspension mountain bikes.

And is commonly referred as rear shock.

You can adjust the suspension, as you prefer for a softer or a firmer

ride.

Figure B2.12.2 Rear suspension part view


WARNING: Make sure there are at least two threads showing

(C) above the adjusting nut (A) so the shock does not come loose (See

figure B2.12.2).

To adjust the suspension

1. For a softer ride, turn the adjusting nut (A) clockwise, so the suspension spring (B) is compressed less.

2. For a firmer ride, turn the adjusting nut (A) counter clockwise, so the suspension spring (B) is compressed more.

B3. LUBRICATION

Table below mention the type and frequency of lubrication for

different parts of the bicycle. Refer this table before lubricating each

part

What When How

Pedals every six months Put four drops of oil where the axles go into the pedals.

Chain every six months Put one drop of oil on each roller of the chain. Wipe all excess oil off the chain.
