CONGRATULATIONS ON THE PURCHASE OF YOUR NEW

E-BIKE!

The Delta rDrive is a new generation of e-bike designed and developed based on

many years of experience with our e-bike partner Promovec. Please read this user

manual as it contains important information concerning the safe use and maintenance

of this e-bike.

The Delta rDrive is a modern e-bike that has been manufactured following the latest

production standards and techniques ensuring you have the highest quality bike with

premium performance.

If you have further questions regarding your e-bike operation or assembly, please

reach out to us at 800-474-6615 or www.designbydelta.com for Delta Customer

Service.

INTENDED PURPOSE

The e-bike is intended for use on regular paved surfaces as well as upaved surfaces,

gravel roads and trails with moderate grades.

CAUTION

• Do NOT use the e-bike in combination with a bike trailer.

• Always use original Promovec spare parts when replacing electrical components.

• Do NOT clean the e-bike with a high-pressure cleaner.

• If the electrical system is modied the warranty is null and void.

BPSA CLASSIFICATION - CLASS 1

A “Class 1 electric e-bike” or “Low-speed pedal-assisted e-bike,” is an e-bike equipped

with a motor that provides asssistance only when the rider is pedaling and that ceases

to provide assistance when the e-bike reaches the speed of 15.5 mph

Page 5

WARNINGS:

• Using the e-bike outside the specied terrain may result in injuries and/or damage

to the e-bike.

• Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, both for the bicyclist and for

other vehicles sharing the road. The risk of an accident is dramatically increased in

wet conditions, take proper precautions.

• Under wet conditions, the stopping power of your brakes (as well as the brakes of

other vehicles sharing the road) is dramatically reduced and your tires will not grip

as well. This makes it hard to control the speed of the bike and risk a loss of control.

To make sure that you can slow down and stop safely in wet conditions, ride slowly,

apply your brakes earlier and more gradually than you would under, dry conditions.

GETTING STARTED

Assembly of this e-bike is recommended by a certied bicycle mechanic.

If you choose to assemble your e-bike it is recommended that your bicycle be

inspected by a certied bicycle mechanic prior to riding.

It’s important to follow this assembly guide. E-bikes are great fun but improper

assembly can result in serious injury and/or death.

The tools you will need to assemble this bike are as follows:

• 4mm Hex Key (included)

• 5mm Hex Key (included)

• 6mm Hex Key (included)

• Multi-wrench (included)

• 15mm open-ended wrench and/or a dedicated 15mm pedal wrench

(Recommend)

• Snips or cable cutters (not included)

• Torque wrench (not included)

• Pump to inate the tires (not included)

• Grease for the pedal axle threads, stem and seatpost (not incuded)

We recommend using a torque wrench to check all the nuts and bolts that require

assembly to meet the required torque settings.

Once the e-bike has been unpacked, make sure you have removed all the packaging

and dispose of it appropriately – much of the packaging materials can be recycled.

Before disposing of the carton check that there are no remaining parts in the box.

When cutting zip-ties we recommend using snips or cable cutters to cut. Be very

careful not to cut any cables or wires.

We recommend using a bicycle assembly stand to help secure the bike during

assembly.

EXPANSION BOLT

STEM ASSEMBLY

The handlebar comes mounted on the stem with brake levers and gear shifter mounted

to the handlebar. Insert the stem into the headtube and ensure the minimum insertion

mark is fully inserted into the headset.

1. Add grease to the stem, then insert it into the headset, the minimum insertion mark

must be fully inserted into the headtube.

2. Align the handlebars perpendicular with the front wheel.

3. Remove the rubber cover in the top of the stem expansion bolt.

4. Tighten the expansion bolt with 22-23 Nm in the stem ensuring the stem is xed in

position.

5. Place the rubber cover back into place.

6. Test that the stem cannot be removed or turned after installation.

HANDLEBAR ADJUSTMENT

It will be necessary to angle the handlebar to the correct riding position which is the grips

pointing down approximately 3-4 degrees from horizontal.

7. Loosen, but do not remove, both stem bolts.

8. Angle the bars in the correct position by pulling up on the grips.

9. Ensure the handlebar is still centered in the stem.

10. Tighten both stem bolts equally to 8-10 Nm.

11. Test that the bars cannot be moved up or down after installation.

Page 8

WARNINGS!

• The stems minimum insertion mark must not be visible above the top of the

headset. If the stem is extended beyond the minimum insertion mark the stem

may break or damage the fork’s steerer tube which could cause you to lose

control and fall leading to serious injury and/or death.

• An insuciently tightened stem expansion bolt, handlebar clamp bolt or stem

angle adjustment bolts may compromise steering action, which could cause you

to lose control and fall leading to serious injury or death.

• Place the front wheel of the bicycle between your legs and attempt to twist

the handlebar/stem assembly. If you can twist the stem in relation to the front

wheel or turn the handlebars in relation to the stem, the bolts are insuciently

tightened.

WEDGE BOLT

SIDE BOLT

STEM ANGLE ADJUSTMENT

The stem can be adjusted to raise the height of the handlebar to suit the desired riding

position.

1. Loosen but do not remove the wedge bolt located on the underside of the stem.

2. If necessary, loosen the bolts on the side of the stem.

3. Adjust the stem to the desired angle.

4. Tighten the bolts on the side of the stem to 8 Nm if they were loosened in step 2.

5. Tighten the wedge bolt on the underside of the stem to 14-15 Nm.

If you choose to change the angle of the stem it is likely you will need to adjust the angle

of the handlebars. Repeat the steps in the section “Handlebar adjustment” above to get

the correct angle for the handlebar if necessary.

WARNINGS

• Insuciently tightened bolts that controls the stem angle may compromise steering

action, which could cause you to lose control and fall leading to serious injury or

death. Ensure there is no movement by pulling up and pushing down on the stem,

properly torque bolts to the specied Nm.

FRONT VIEW OF FRONT WHEEL

FRONT WHEEL INSTALLATION

Bicycle wheels are designed to be removeable for easier transportation and for

repairing punctures. Insert the hub axle on the wheel into the fork dropouts. The

wheels are secured with the supplied axle nuts and washers (where applicable) which

are threaded onto the hub axle.

1. Ensure all the packing material is removed from the fork paying close attention

to the plastic fork protector at the bottom of the fork legs. Note: you may need to

loosen the axle nuts a few turns to get the axle into the fork dropouts.

2. Check that the axle is fully inserted into the fork dropouts and tighten the axle nuts

to 30Nm torque.

3. The wheel should spin freely.

4. At this point it is recommended you check the ination of both the front and rear

tires. Please refer to the Tires, Tubes and Wheels maintenance section.
