Your GRACE MX II The GRACE MX II is a member of the class of electric power assisted cycles, or EPAC's. The motor only provides assistance when you apply force to the pedals. The force applied by the rider is measured in terms of speed, pedalling frequency, and torque through which the motorised assistance is adjusted.
1.1. About this operating manual This operating manual is solely for the GRACE MX II range in the Pedelec- and S-Pedelec variants and frame sizes M and L for model year 2014. Follow the instructions and warnings for your own safety. Failing to do so may damage the bike and/or lead to personal injury, For maintenance work and repairs, please talk directly to your dealer.

• Rear-view mirror (S-Pedelec) • Pedal reflectors (Pedelec/S-Pedelec) Modifications to your GRACE MX II which result in an increase in the motor output and speed put your safety while riding at risk and can lead to your driver's licence being revoked or the loss of insurance coverage.
2.1. Charging the battery The battery is fitted to the down tube of your GRACE MX II. The battery can be recharged at any time either separately or while in the vehicle. Make sure the voltage set for your charger is the same as that of the power supply (110V or 230V).
GRACE MX II. Using other batteries can lead to injuries and the risk of fire. If you want to stop using your GRACE MX II for a longer period of time (> 1 month), make sure that the battery is charged to approximately 60%, this is equivalent to 3 –...
When switching on the bike, there must not be any load on the pedals on your GRACE MX II - otherwise, performance of the drive may be impaired. If the GRACE MX II was switched off accidentally while there was a load on the pedals, switch off the bike again and switch it back on without a load on the pedals.
If you pull out the saddle post too far, the seat tube may no longer be able to support the saddle post sufficiently. The saddle post may come undone while riding or it may damage or break off the seat tube. Danger of injury or accident! GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 97...
After adjustment, re-tighten the screw again (see torque table). The brake levers are configured correctly when your fingers can reach the brake levers when your arms are outstretched. The wrist should be stretched out as much as possible. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page |...
(M4x10) and two self-sealing nuts. Screws and nuts are not included in the scope of supply. 2.10. Side reflectors (S-Pedelec only) The self-adhering side reflectors are secured to the side of the fork - as shown next. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 99...
Have the following tools available: • Cross screwdriver PH2 • Wrench 7mm mouth width Work steps Take the reflector housing and plug the M4 screws into the existing long holes. Then push on this the mounting wedge. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page |...

Clip the reflector into the reflector housing. Repeat the process for both pedals and on both sides of the pedals GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 101...
Explore the origin of any rattling noises and where necessary check the bearings and screw connections. The GRACE MX II comes with the following tyres as standard: • Schwalbe Big Ben RaceGuard 60-559 (MX II Urban) • CONTINENTAL MountainKing 2.2 (MX II Trail)
• All screws must pre present and have a firm fit. Check the brake callipers for oil leaks. Make sure the brake cables are kink-free. Check the seal on the brake cables. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 103...
Brake pads and discs wear due to friction. The more often you ride in a hilly environment or through rain or dirt, the higher the wear. The braking system on the GRACE MX II has a fully-automatic pad synchronisation system. This system balances the wear on the brake pads so that the pressure point of the brake is always constant.

Pull the quick-release axle out of the fork by moving it towards the right. While doing so, firmly hold the front wheel and undo the front wheel by removing it out of the fork in a downwards direction. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 111...
With the front wheel removed, insert the transport safety mechanism between the brake pads to prevent unintended adjustment of the gaps between brake pads. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page |...
Next, undo the quick release and guide the rear wheel out of the dropouts by moving it downwards. Insert the transport safety mechanism between the brake pads to prevent unintended adjustment of the gaps between brake pads. GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 113...
Attach both axle nut screws and tighten them alternately with a wrench SW15 to 30 Nm. Also refer to the settings in the torque table. Please also follow the guidelines for installing the gears in the NuVinci N360 manual GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page |...
This also increases the wear and frictional losses in the entire drive. Undo the four hexagon sockets (SW6) right and left on the dropouts as well as the screw for the torque arm (SW5). GRACE MX II Operating instructions Page | 115...

Transporting the GRACE MX II battery in a passenger aeroplane is not permitted. Transporting the GRACE MX II with its battery installed on a car with a roof or tailgate carrier is not permitted. Remove the battery before transport. The weight of the bike places special requirements on a car roof or tailgate support.
The brake pads are subject to function-related wear which is heavily dependent on how the GRACE MX II is used. When riding along tracks with heavy drops or when using it for bike sports, it may be necessary to replace the brake pads at shorter intervals. It is therefore essential that you check the wear on your brake pads regularly.
The chain is susceptible to function-related wear which depends on maintenance, repair and the how the GRACE MX II is used (performance, dirt, salt, riding in rain, etc.). The service life can be extended by regularly cleaning and lubrication. However, the chain will need to be replaced when it reaches its wear limit.
(distance, riding in rain, dirt, salt). 8.12. Frame paint and coating The coatings on the parts of your GRACE MX II protects them from corrosion. Regularly check all paint surfaces for damage and touch up these surfaces right away. This also preserves the look of your bike.
Your GRACE dealer knows your bike very well and has the right tools to maintain your GRACE bike. After a crash or an accident on your GRACE MX II, you must take your bike to a specialist dealer for a thorough inspection.
13. Warranty A statutory warranty period of two years has been in effect since 01/01/2002.
