Introduction

The VanMoof AutoHub Set is a 2-speed replacement for the original 4-speed system on your bike. This set includes a new wheel and a pseudo e-shifter. During installation, you'll need to transfer the tire and brake rotor from the original wheel. Follow the steps below for a successful installation.

Tools :

• Allen key #2.5
• Allen key #4
• Allen key #5
• Anti-theft tool with #15 key
• Tire lever
• Pump
• Torx #25

Steps:

1. Remove the chain guard and chain tensioner

Action :

• • Remove the rear portion of the chain guard.
  • Remove the bolts holding the chain tensioner.
    
    
    

2. Disconnect the e-Shifter

Action :

• • Remove the e-Shifter bolt (save the bolt for later use).
  • Remove the cover and unplug the connector from the frame.
  • Disconnect the e-Shifter connector.
    
    
    

3. Remove the rear wheel

Action :

• • Use the anti-theft nut to remove both wheel nuts.
  • Lower the wheel out of the frame.
    
    
    

4. Transfer the Inner & Outer Tire and Brake Disc Rotor

Action :

• • Remove both the inner and outer tires and the brake disc rotor from the old wheel.
    
  • Carefully remove the rim tape and check it for physical damage. If it appears to be in good condition, you can reuse it on the new wheel; if not, we recommend replacing it with a new one. You can always use any rim tape of your choice.
  • Install all of the above mentioned parts onto the new wheel.
    
    

5. Install Pseudo e-Shifter

Action :

• • Connect the Pseudo e-Shifter.
  • Install the cable bracket using the bolt you saved from step 3.
  • Slide the Pseudo e-Shifter into place.
    
    
    

6. Install 2-Speed ​​Hub Rear Wheel

Action :

• • Check the chain's wear. If it's worn, replace it (note: a new chain is not included in the kit).
    
  • Remove 1 full link from the chain (the rear sprocket on the new wheel is slightly smaller, so this adjustment is necessary)
  • Install the new wheel.
    
    

7. Install the Chain Guard and Tensioner

Action :

• • Close the chain guard and install the tensioner onto the frame.
  • Align the Pseudo Shifter bracket with the holes for the e-Shifter.
  • Align the chain tensioner properly with the slotted holes.
  • Make sure the metal bracket does not touch the chain.
    
    

8. Check and Adjust the Brake Caliper

Action :

• • Align the brake caliper.
  • Make sure the disc is not rubbing and the brake pads are free from movement.
  • Take the bike for a test ride to check for proper alignment.
    
    
    

Troubleshooting tips

• Error 44 : If error 44 is still displayed on the screen, there may be a problem with the wiring or the Cartridge, not with the E-shifter.
• App settings : With the Pseudo E-shifter, the shift points are fixed at specific speeds. The app settings will no longer affect shifting. Make sure the shift point is set to the appropriate shift point.
