BIKE ASSEMBLY | PROFESSIONAL HELP OR DO-IT-YOURSELF
Correct assembly and fit are essential elements of ensuring your electric bike’s safety
and proper performance and we recommend seeking professional help from a
reputable, certified bike mechanic to verify your bike is set up correctly. While you may
have the skills, experience, and tools to assemble the bike before your first ride, GEN3
recommends having a certified bike mechanic double check your work. GEN3 works
with Velofix, which offers mobile bike assembly service. Learn more

LOCAL LAWS
Regulations related to the use and operation of electric bikes vary based on the country,
state/province, county and municipality in which the rider may live. In many cases, the
regulations for the use of an electric bike are the same as those for a standard bicycle.
However, each jurisdiction may have laws regarding licenses and regulations of electric
bikes, where you can ride, minimum rider age, or required equipment, such as helmets. It is
the rider’s responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to an electric bike and to
obey them.
AFTERMARKET MODIFICATIONS
An electric bike has hidden wiring throughout the frame as well as other parts like the
control unit and battery pack. When mounting accessories (such as a bottle cage), use
appropriate fasteners. By using too long or pointed bolts, damage could be caused to
internal components resulting in a short circuit and/or damage to the battery.
