FAQs

What is the range of the 500Wh battery?

The range varies significantly based on factors like rider weight, terrain, assistance level used, and wind conditions. Bosch estimates typically range from 50-100 miles (80-160 km) on a single charge for this battery size and motor combination.

How do I clean and maintain the Bosch motor?

The Bosch motor is sealed and requires minimal maintenance. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid direct high-pressure water jets. Ensure the motor casing is free from debris.

Can I fit different tires to this bike?

The bike comes with 50-622 Schwalbe Road Cruiser tires. While other tires within a similar size range might fit, it's best to consult with a Raleigh dealer or experienced bike mechanic to ensure compatibility and avoid frame or component interference.

What is the maximum weight capacity of the bike?

The maximum permissible weight (including rider, cargo, and the bike itself) is 120 kg.

Is the battery removable for charging?

Yes, the Bosch battery is designed to be easily removable, allowing you to charge it indoors conveniently.

What type of lock is included?

The bike comes with an Abus frame lock for immediate security.

What is the warranty on the Raleigh Motus?

Raleigh typically offers a warranty on their frames and components. Specific details for the electric system (Bosch motor and battery) are usually provided by Bosch and Raleigh. It is recommended to check the official Raleigh warranty documentation for precise terms.

Troubleshooting

Motor not providing assistance

Ensure the battery is charged and properly inserted. Check that the display unit is correctly connected and that the assistance level is activated. Verify that the speed sensor is clean and properly aligned.

Display unit not turning on

Check the battery connection to the display unit. Ensure the main battery is charged and securely attached to the frame.

Gears not shifting smoothly

The derailleur cable may need adjustment. Clean and lubricate the chain and cassette. Ensure the rear derailleur is not bent or damaged. Consult the Shimano Cues manual for adjustment procedures.

Lights not working

Check the connections to the lights and ensure they are securely seated. Verify that the lighting system is activated via the display unit. Confirm the main battery has sufficient charge.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Initial Setup: The bike arrives mostly assembled. Users will need to attach pedals, potentially adjust handlebar height, and ensure tires are properly inflated. It is recommended to have a professional bike mechanic perform a final safety check and familiarize yourself with the Bosch e-bike system.

Compatibility: The MIK rear rack is compatible with MIK accessories (sold separately). The bike uses standard Schrader valves for tires. The internal components are designed to work seamlessly with the Bosch system; ensure any accessories fitted do not interfere with the frame or electrical components.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Clean the frame and components with a damp cloth. Avoid high-pressure washers, especially near the motor and battery housing. Regularly clean the chain and drivetrain.
  • Battery: Store the battery in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods. Avoid full discharge and charge the battery regularly.
  • Tires: Maintain proper tire pressure as indicated on the tire sidewall for optimal performance and to prevent punctures.
  • Brakes & Gears: Regularly check brake pad wear and adjust brakes as needed. The derailleur system may require periodic adjustment to ensure smooth gear changes.
