Accessories
In purchasing your MERIDA bike you laid the foundation
for many years and miles of enjoyable cycling. What-
ever you are planning to do with your MERIDA bike, be
sure to have proper equipment and to keep a few tips in
mind. Your MERIDA dealer has a variety of useful ac-
cessories on offer enhancing both your safety and con-
venience.
Your MERIDA bike can be fitted with various kinds of
accessories. Make sure to observe the requirements
according to the traffic regulations in your country and
of the DIN EN standards. Any retrofitted part must be
compatible with your MERIDA bike. If you are in doubt or
if you have any questions, contact your MERIDA dealer.

Improper accessories may change the quali-
ties of your MERIDA bike and even cause an
accident. Therefore, before fitting any acces-
sories contact your MERIDA dealer and observe the in-
structions regarding the intended use of your MERIDA
bike.

Retrofitted accessories, such as mudguards,
pannier racks etc. can impair the functioning

Before buying any additional bells or lighting
accessories
(a)
, inform yourself thoroughly
whether they are permitted and tested and
accordingly approved for use on public roads. Make
sure additional battery/accumulator-powered lamps
are marked with the wavy line and the letter “K”.
Bar ends
Flat handlebars can be equipped with bar ends
(b+c)
.
Some thin-walled handlebars (primarily those made of
aluminum or carbon fiber) require additional handlebar
plugs or other special parts to prevent the handlebars
from being crushed or broken. Be sure to have them
mounted by your MERIDA dealer!
Bicycle locks
Do not forget to take a high quality D-

or chain lock
with you on your ride. The only way to effectively pro-
tect your MERIDA bike against theft is to lock it to an
immovable object.
