6. RIDING SKILLS
Correct cycling posture is essential for safe riding. The riding posture is closely related to the height and size of the cyclist. Proper
cycling posture not only determines the efficiency of muscle movement, but at the same time determines whether the cyclist can
manipulate the handles and brakes safely.
Safety riding skills:
Adjust three parts of the e-bike to suit your body; bicycling is just like buying clothes—you need take measurements and make
adjustments. The method of adjusting three parts is a combination of bicycle sports mechanics, exercise physiology and safe riding.
1. Adjust the position of the seat: Use your heel to push the pedal down and let the muscles in your legs
contract without forcing them. The legs should be able to bend very slightly.
2. Adjust the height of the handlebar: For the height of the bar, in general, the riser bar is about 30-50 mm higher than the seat,
and the flat bar is the same high as the seat. The top of the lower curve is the same height as the seat.
After adjusting, pay attention to the direction of the handlebar and then lock.
*Sitting posture on the seat: Similar to the posture on horseback, weight is placed on the handle and pedals and not on the upper
body, to prevent hip pain.
*Pedal position: The top third of your foot should be positioned on the middle of the pedal. Your feet must be parallel with the
center line of the bike to ensure optimal efficiency. You should try to pedal at a uniform speed to avoid fatigue.
*Slowdown skills: The speed change gear is used to slow down but not to accelerate. It serves to stabilize the number of revolutions
of the pedal, to relieve fatigue arising from uneven force. You should change gears in order to lesson effort and ride more
comfortably. You should change gears when going up a hill; riding on uneven pavement or against the wind; or when feeling tired
or uncomfortable.
*Braking skills: As you may be aware, when hard braking you should stop the rear brake then the front brake. But in case of an
emergency, people generally use both brakes at the same time. If the braking distance is adequate, the bike can stop securely; if the
slowdown is too fast, people often would be thrown forward. To prevent this, the best way to stop is through intermittent braking.
On rainy days, increase the braking distance and reduce speed in order to stop safely.
