Adjusting the Front Suspension
The lockout lever
Located to the top-right of the suspension fork, the lockout lever can be turned counter-clockwise to adjust resistance or fully lock the suspension in place. To unlock, turn the lever completely counter-clockwise.
The suspension fork can be adjusted up to 80mm to cushion riding surfaces, making rides on rough roads or trails smoother and more comfortable. Depending on the rider's preference, the suspension fork can be locked into place, providing less cushioning but greater pedaling efficiency.

Maintenance & Storage Instructions / Instructions de Maintenance et de Stockage
Cleaning and Storage
If you see stains on the bicycle, use a damp cloth to wipe them away, or use a toothbrush with toothpaste.
Warning: Do not use alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, or other corrosive and volatile chemical solvents to clean the bicycle, as they may cause severe damage. Do not use a high-pressure washer for cleaning. During the cleaning process, ensure that the bicycle is turned off, the charging cable is unplugged, and the charging port rubber cover is properly closed to prevent water leakage and avoid potential electrical short circuits or other major issues.
When the bicycle is not in use, store it indoors in a dry and cool place. Prolonged outdoor storage or exposure to excessive sunlight, heat, or extremely cold or wet environments can accelerate the aging of the bicycle and its battery.
Battery Maintenance
All Heybike Ebikes are equipped with advanced lithium batteries. To ensure safety and optimal performance for longer riding time and distance, proper battery maintenance is necessary.
- Please use the original battery pack, as using battery from other models or brands may pose safety risks.
- Do not touch the battery contacts. Keep them away from metal objects to prevent short circuits that could damage the battery or cause harm to individuals.
- Use the original power adapter to avoid potential damage or fire hazards.
- Improper disposal of used batteries can cause significant harm to the environment. Please follow local regulations for the proper disposal of used batteries.
- Always fully charge the battery after each use to extend battery lifespan.
- Store the bicycle in a dry and cool place at temperatures between 50°F-77°F (10°C-25°C). Moisture in the environment can lead to condensation or water accumulation, which could damage the battery.
- Avoid fully depleting the battery during regular use. If the battery level is low, recharge it as soon as possible. If the bicycle is not in use, make sure to recharge it every month to protect the battery.
