- Display stuck in setup screen → Use the “–” button to scroll down to Back < on each screen and press “i” repeatedly until you return to the main display.
FAQs
- Can I change these values for personal preference?
Yes. You can adjust them to fine-tune the bike’s feel, but higher torque or current settings may reduce range and increase motor wear. - Why are some modes limited to 20 mph?
Fit and Eco modes are optimized for efficiency and Class 2 compliance. Cargo, Sport, and Turbo allow Class 3 performance up to 28 mph. - My throttle doesn’t work after changing settings — is that normal?
Yes, if the Throttle option is set to “Off” for that assist level. Turn it back “On” and restart the display - Can I customize all riding modes?
Yes. Each mode (Fit, Eco, Cargo, Sport, Turbo) has independent settings. - Why does my display ask for a PIN at startup?
You enabled Set Password. Enter your 4-digit PIN or disable the feature.
