Steps | All Bikes
Step 1: Access the Display Cables
Unzip and remove the sleeve that protects the front cables.
Cut the zip ties that hold the cables together.
Untwist the spiral plastic organizer to expose the cables running down the handlebar.
Step 2: Disconnect the Old Display
Locate the Julet connector (green) coming from the display cable and pull it apart carefully without twisting.
Use a 2.5 mm Allen wrench to remove (counterclockwise) the single bolt securing the display’s control buttons on the handlebar.
Using the same Allen wrench, loosen and remove (counterclockwise) the two bolts that hold the display in place on the handlebar.
With both bolts removed, gently open the display clamp with two fingers and slide the display off the handlebar.
Step 3: Pull Out the Display and Buttons
Pull the display and button controls out completely from the handlebar and set them aside.
Step 4: Install the New Display
Slide the new display onto the center of the handlebar, making sure to include the rubber circular pads under the clamps.
Slide the display control onto the left handlebar.
Use a 2.5 mm Allen wrench to tighten (clockwise) the single bolt securing the display’s control buttons on the handlebar.
Using the same Allen wrench, tighten (clockwise) the two bolts that hold the display in place on the handlebar.
Step 5: Connect the New Display
Align the arrows of the green Julet connector and push both ends together until you feel a soft “click.”
Twist the spiral plastic organizer to cover the cables running down the handlebar.
Zip-tie the cables together and cut the excess ends.
Zip the cable sleeve back into place.
Step 6: Test the New Display
Power on the bike by holding the “i” button, and confirm that the display lights up.
Troubleshooting
Display won’t power on → Make sure the green Julet connector is fully seated and the arrows are aligned. Verify that your battery is properly connected and charged before testing again.
Display turns on but doesn’t respond to buttons → Double-check that the control buttons are securely plugged in and that the connector pins are not bent.
Display flickers or restarts while riding → Inspect the display cable for loose connections or tension near the handlebar. Make sure the cable is not pinched under the stem or zip ties.
Display moves or tilts while riding → Loosen the bolts, reposition the rubber pads under the clamps, and retighten evenly to secure a firm grip on the handlebar.
No pedal assist after replacing the display → Power off the bike and reconnect both the display and button connectors. A loose or partial connection can interrupt communication with the controller.
