The battery is a high quality power lithium-ion battery, 36V, 8.7AH. The range is approximately 90 km+. But that does depend on many various factors, including terrain, slope, your weight and how much you pedal and your level of assist.

The battery is 280mm x 75mm.

The battery holder must be positioned at an upward slope, therefore it’s best to be fixed on to your bike-frame. This is because there is a gyroscope inside it, which is part of the pedal assist technology.

Wheel with 250W/350W motor, battery & battery holder, wired thumb throttle, instruction booklet, charger, tools for installation (allen key and wheel spanner).

No. The thumb controller is your choice. We find that some of our customers prefer not to use the thumb controller and that’s fine, the bike will automatically work on the pedal assist mode.

This is a common question.  Your tyre size should be written on the side of your tyre.  There will be a series of numbers showing the diameter and width.  It will look something like this: 700c x 38.  Occasionally different cycle manufacturers will use a different scale.  If you have any problems working out your tyre size, please call us on +86 199 7018 0785.  Alternatively, you can email us a picture of the writing on your tyre to miya@lvbu.tech

Yes it does. The kit will automatically sense when the brakes are applied and cuts the power to the motor.

LVBU kit will fit most bikes except thru axle. 

• Lvbu assist system is an intelligent assist system which can calculate out and provide the proper power based on the speed, acceleration, the slope of the road, and the assist level set in the APP or display. It will provide proper power automatically when you pedal. The motor will not work until the speed reaches 5 km/h. 
• It will increase the power when it senses the acceleration is positive and decrease the power when it is minus. The system will also increase the power when going uphill and shut down the motor when going downhill. And the kit can also be controlled by the optional wireless thumb throttle. When you push the throttle, the bike will be fully driven by electric power, but when you release it the assist system will kick in again automatically. The introduction of the 5 assist modes is as following:
   * Manual mode: The most often used mode. The users can set a proper assist grade from 0 to 99 for themselves. 0 stands for no assist while 99 stands for the strongest assist. Under the manual mode the user can use the optional wireless display to set the assist grade instead of using smart phone. After setting the assist grade, the wheel will assist automatically.
   * Commute mode: Under this mode, the wheel will have relatively strong assist power all the time. The output curve of the assist grade is as shown above. It is similar to an assist grade of 60% in the manual mode.
   * Leisure mode: The assist power output is as the curve above. It is a curve similar to a damping ratio. Half an hour is a cycle. At the end of the cycle, the assist will become stronger.
   * Exercise mode: This mode has a small assist output. One cycle is also half an hour. After about 10 minutes, the assist power output will become stronger in the rest of the cycle.
   * Climbing mode: The wheel provides a certain assist grade only if the road is uphill that above a certain slope angle. The assist grade and the slope angle can be set in the APP. For example, when you set 2 degrees and an 80 assist grade, the wheel can give you an 80 assist grade when you are on the road with slope angle above 2 degrees.
  
   Note: Lvbu's intelligent assist system can be upgraded by the APP. We will keep optimizing the algorithm and publishing the new firmware.

Lvbu ebike kits use EV 18650 lithium-ion battery cells with class A quality. Working with our own BMS system, the lifetime of the battery is very high. 80% capacity remains after 1,000 cycles. So normally it can last 5 years.

*Note: The definition of one cycle is that charge the battery from 0 to 100% and discharge it fully. For example, if you charge the battery from the 0 to 50% and discharge it to 0, that is 0.5 cycle.

Open the APP and allow all the permissions that the APP asks for. And tap the magnified glass icon on the right top of the APP to search for the Bluetooth address. Select the right address of your kit in the list to connect.
 
*Note: Please connect the kit in the APP, don’t connect it in the operation system of the phone. You don’t need to input any pin to connect. And please make sure all permissions are allowed and the kit is not connected to other devices. The kit can just connect to only one device at the same time.

Lvbu wheel has a built-in six-axis gyroscope, which can sense the slope of the road such as uphill and downhill. But if you want to detect the slope of the road correctly, you must calibrate the gyroscope angle on the level ground first. The way how gyroscope works is as below: 

• The purpose of calibrating the gyroscope angle is to give the gyroscope a horizontal reference, telling the gyroscope that the current angle is level, so that the gyroscope can detect the slope. 
• If the gyroscope is calibrated on a downhill road, the gyroscope will regard the downhill road with a certain angle as a horizontal road, but when the bike is on a level road, the gyroscope will sense it as an uphill, in that case the motor will always provide assistance; 
• If the gyroscope is calibrated on an uphill road, the gyroscope will treat this uphill road as a horizontal road. And when the bike is on a level road, the system will shut down the motor because the gyroscope sense the level road as a downhill road by mistake.
  
  Therefore, you must calibrate the gyroscope on a level ground, otherwise there will be problem with the assist system.

BTC02 Display Connect Method:

• Please turn off or disconnect the Bluetooth connection on your phone before the Bluetooth display connects to the LVBU Wheel. The wheel cannot connect to more than one device at the same time; 
• Press the power button of the Bluetooth display to turn it on. Then press the power button three times continuously. The display will search for the Bluetooth address of the lvbu ebike kits nearby; 
• After the display finishes the search, press the up and down keys to select the right address of your kit and press the power button to connect.

DW03 Display Connect Method:

• Open the APP and connect it with the Lvbu ebike kit
• Press the power button of the Bluetooth display to turn it on.
• Tap the "device" icon at the bottom right in the front page of the APP-->Tap "Add Device"--> Select the display in the list to connect.

Yes, we have oversea warehouse in Europe.

And for some countries, we do have local dealers.
