How to turn the bike on and off?

Turn on, turn off, and activate walk mode on your Torks e-bike in a few simple steps.

Turning the bike on

Press and hold the ⏻ button for a few seconds until the display turns on.

The display shows the current assist level and the remaining battery range.

Walk mode (walking assist)

When walking alongside your bike — for example, pushing it up a slope — you can activate walk mode:

  1. The bike must be turned on.
  2. Press and hold the "minus" () button for a few seconds.
  3. Keep the button held down: the bike will gently move forward at about 6 km/h beside you.
  4. Release the button to stop.

Turning the bike off

Press and hold the ⏻ button for a few seconds until the display turns off.

If you forget to turn it off, the bike will automatically go into standby after a few minutes of inactivity.

The bike also works without electric assist — you can always pedal normally if the battery is empty or if you prefer to ride without assistance.
