Maintenance
Repairing a punctured tyre If you have a punctured tyre, we recommend that you get a specialist to carry out the repairs. You can always of course consult a specialist and carry out the repairs on your own.
As there are no electronic components on the rear wheel, its removal follow standard proceedures as with normal bicycles with internal gears. Read the Shimano gear manual provided for more instructions.
As the front wheel contains the hub motor, there are additional steps in the case you require the entire wheel to be removed from the bike.
A philips head screwdriver will be required to open the cable housing (shown on left) to first unplug the wires than run from the motor to
controller. There should be 1 x 6 pin connection and 3 colour coded wire connections (Blue, Yellow,
Green). Unplug these before proceeding to remove the front wheel. Be mindful of the tightening assembly sequence of washers, nuts and spacers.
Hub motor and general inspection
After 5,000 kms (3,000 miles) of cycling. We recommend you arrange to have a thorough inspection of your bicycle by an eZee dealer. This includes opening up the hub motor to inspect and lubricate the gears.
