3.5 Prolonging the Life of your Battery:
Your HPC bicycle/kit features a state of the art Lithium based battery systems. Our kits feature the most
powerful, lightest weight and best performing batteries on the market. NMC based systems should expect
around 3 years of use depending on how you take care of your battery. Remember that these batteries do
have a shelf life so even if you are not using the pack, the battery will only be good for so long.
To prolong the life and performance of the pack, it is best to not drain the pack to zero capacity (like when
the battery management system shuts it off). Going from 100% to zero capacity will adversely affect your
life cycles. It is much better, for instance, to go from 100% to 50%. If you only rode your bike 3 miles every
day, you are better off charging the battery after each ride instead of waiting until the battery is dead.
Keeping the depth of discharge less than 80% (so from 100% to 20%) will make sure you get the full life
from the battery.
Heat and discharge rate also will adversely affect the life and performance of the battery. If you want more
life from your battery and system, it is best to use lower amps. The lower the amps that the system drains
from the battery, the less stress (and heat) it puts on the battery cells and battery management system. This
equates to a longer cycle life and higher performing battery. If you, for instance, use your system at full
throttle and high amps continually (like climbing long, steep hills), you will notice a degradation of your
performance and range a lot sooner than someone who is not pushing the system as hard.
3.6 Bike Operation:
1. DO NOT use FULL throttle for prolonged periods of time. This will result in excessive heat buildup in the
motor, throttle and batteries. Think about what would happen to your car if you redlined it for prolonged
periods of time... It will not last very long. Do not abuse your system, and it will last you a long time!
2. DO NOT cruise long distances over 80% of the stated top speed due to heat buildup in the components.
For instance, if you bikes top speed is 30mph, do not cruise over 24 mph. This is a rule of thumb to prolong
the life of your system.
3. NEVER fully rely on the motor for power when climbing. Pedal along to assist the motor. This will
increase range and prolong the life of the components
4. DO NOT operate in excessive heat (over 100 degrees Fahrenheit) for a prolonged period of time. Doing so
may result in excessive heat buildup and some components may shut down due to thermal protection.
5. If you notice a decrease in performance or abnormal operation, cease electrical operation immediately.
Failure to do so may result in damage to electrical components.
6. DO NOT apply the brakes abruptly when going downhill as this may result in loss of control. Use
consistent, gradual braking.
8. NEVER use the throttle and brake at the same time. Doing so will potentially damage the controller and
the bike itself due to the immense rotational forces of the motor.
9. ALWAYS help your system out by pedaling up steep inclines. If you hear your motor struggling or your
system is going less than 5 mph at full throttle, either help out by pedaling more, or simply get off your bike
and walk it up the hill. We will not be responsible for burnt motors due to willful neglect.
10. Ride the bike at a level and speed you are comfortable with. Do not push the boundaries of your skill
level or the bike!
11. The Revolution is made for fast and aggressive riding if the rider is sufficiently skilled. However, it was
not made for very large jumps and/or cliff jumping. It is intended as more of a do-it-all Freeride type bike.
Small to medium jumps are fine as long as you feel it is safe and comfortable to do so.
12. ALWAYS follow local laws regarding your electric bike. If your bike is over legal power limits, bikes
equipped with bicycle computer must make sure to program your system to federal legal limits when riding
on public roads or property.
3.7 Storage and Charging:
1. ALWAYS store and charge your batteries in a cool, dry place. Failure to do so will decrease performance
