How to check on your own bike

  1. Look at the motor housing near the bottom bracket for any maker name, model code or serial number that is cast or printed into the casing.
  2. Read the display mounted on the handlebar; note the brand, model line or firmware version shown at startup or in the settings menu.
  3. Check whether the bike pairs with a smartphone app and note the exact app name, since the app name usually matches the drive system family.
  4. Read the type plate or sticker on the frame, usually on the seat tube or down tube, for drive system specifications and part numbers.
  5. Cross-check the original invoice, owner manual or dealer handover paperwork, which typically lists the exact motor and battery fitted to that specific frame.
