operation.
When installing a child seat or panniers, the user must perform a safety check (e.g., hanging straps that are
in danger of catching in the spokes and raise the risk of a fall; check the secureness of the fastenings on the
child seat, the potential trapping of the child's fingers under the saddle, etc.)

The load on the rack must be evenly distributed on both sides to ensure the stability of the equipment while
