A recent video explained the most important settings for pedal assist and how they work (see below). <strong>In this blog post, we summarize the key points and explain how you can get the most out of your e-bike.<\/strong>it button to change this text. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Ut elit tellus, luctus nec ullamcorper mattis, pulvinar dapibus leo.   <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Torque sensor: How sensitive should it be?&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">An important point is the <strong>sensitivity of the torque sensor<\/strong>. The torque sensor measures how hard you pedal and determines when the motor is activated. The sensitivity can be adjusted depending on the setting:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>100 % sensitivity:<\/strong> The motor reacts even at very low pedal pressure.<\/li>\n<li><strong>0 % sensitivity:<\/strong> Up to <strong>10 Newton meters of<\/strong> force are required before the motor provides assistance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The reason for this adjustment option is that the system has a modular design and the installation of the sensor by the customer may not always be perfect. By adjusting the sensitivity, it is possible to prevent the motor from being activated unintentionally due to incorrect installation or inaccurate torque signals. <strong>Safety<\/strong> is the top priority here! <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Power Ramp-Up Time: Smooth or fast response?&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>power ramp-up time<\/strong> determines how quickly the motor responds to your pedal movements. If you increase this time, the motor&#8217;s power is activated more evenly and smoothly &#8211; ideal for daily commuting. If, on the other hand, you shorten the time, the motor reacts much faster to your pedaling movements, which is particularly suitable for <strong>mountain biking<\/strong> on demanding trails.  <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Motor assistance factor: How much support do you need?&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The <strong>motor assistance factor<\/strong> determines how hard you have to pedal to get full support from the motor. You can adjust this value to obtain the optimum level of assistance depending on the riding style and terrain. For example, on very steep climbs, the motor can be set to provide assistance even when pedaling hard, while others prefer constant assistance with little effort.  <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Advanced settings: Start and stop conditions&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The video also covers the advanced pedal assist settings, such as <strong>cadence start<\/strong> and <strong>reverse pedal cut-off<\/strong>. These functions ensure that the motor works safely and in a controlled manner, even under difficult conditions such as when starting off on a steep slope or when you need to react quickly to a particular situation. <\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Conclusion&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221; woodmart_inline=&#8221;no&#8221; text_larger=&#8221;no&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The correct setting of the pedal assistance can significantly improve your riding experience &#8211; regardless of whether you want to ride comfortably to work or tackle sporty, demanding routes. It is worth investing time in fine-tuning these functions to increase comfort and safety when riding an e-bike. <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you would like to find out more about how the pedal assist works and the various settings, take a look at the following video.
