Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup: Upon receiving the bike, ensure the battery is fully charged before the first ride. Check tire pressure, adjust saddle height, and confirm brake and gear adjustments. It is recommended to have a professional bike shop perform a final inspection.
Compatibility: The bike uses standard bicycle components, but specific electrical system parts (battery, motor, display) are proprietary to Cannondale. Consult the user manual for specific accessory compatibility.
Care: Regularly clean the bike, especially the drivetrain and electrical components, using mild soap and water. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on the motor or battery. Ensure the battery contacts are clean and dry. Store the battery in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods. Periodically check brake pads and tire wear. Refer to the owner's manual for detailed maintenance schedules for both the bicycle and the electric system.
