Models | E6, 4.3E (2007)
4.3E and E6 have a quick resistance switch on the
upper handlebar and the screw is too long.
Symptoms include: scrolling, resistance that is
hard or may bob up and down.
Replace the screw and the switch. The temporary
x is to take out the screw and/or disconnect the
wire (an assembly step).
The E6 requires a larger size crank puller for
removal. Our standard crank is 22mm. The E6 is
26mm.
Use a 26mm crank puller. If one is not available it
can be hammered off.
E6 issues with the crank hitting bolt for the
ywheel.
Verify that the ywheel is mounted properly.
There have been some reports of the pedal arm
rubbing against the shroud plastic on right side.
If the pedal arm is rubbing on the plastic the
shroud may be installed incorrectly or missing
screws. Most likely the plastic slit is misshaped so
either it should be led or dremmeled to give
clearance or the shroud should be replaced.
Models | 2.3E, 3.3E, 4.3E (2007)
2007 Elite models sometimes have a clicking
sound in the pivot block set attached at the crank
arm. The issue is being caused by the silver inner
bushing being slightly higher than the copper
bushing therefore causing the copper bushing to
click up and down on the U-bracket of the Pedal
arm.
The inner bushings have been modied to
eliminate this problem and should be sent.
There are updated bolts | nuts that can be sent
when other repairs fail.
Models | 2.0AH
(2008 Hybrid Bike)
During life testing, a sample at the factory had the
cranks loosen.
A cup washer is being placed at the point where
the crank attaches to the axle to prevent this
problem.
