corresponding to the indicated upper threshold. Use the air pump with a pressure
display in order to check the tyre pressure when pumping up the tyres.
10.4.1 Basic settings
The tyre pressure has an influence on the roll resistance and the suspension of the
cargo bike.
●
Ensure that your air pump has the appropriate connector or adapter for your valve.
●
Check the tyre pressure with the help of a pressure gauge or an air pump with
pressure display.
●
Increase or reduce the pressure as desired by pumping up the tyres or allowing air
to escape.
●
Close the valve with the help of the protective cap you have previously removed.
●
Once you have adjusted the tyre pressure, ensure that the lower knurled nuts on
the valve are sitting correctly and securely. Affix the knurled nuts where appropriate
by tightening them in a clockwise direction in the direction of the rim.
11 Rear Carrier
The rear carrier is suitable for the direct mounting of the MIK HD system for easy and
safe mounting of MIK HD compatible child seats (or other MIK accessories) and
suitable for lighter luggage while traveling. The maximum load of the rear carrier is 59
lbs. Do not change the rear carrier, otherwise the stability or functionality of the cargo
bike may be compromised. Bicycle parts can be damaged by overloading the rear
carrier. The maximum load of the rear carrier and the maximum total weight of the
cargo bike must be considered when loading it. Do not exceed rear carrier weight
limit of 59 lbs.
Luggage on the rear rack
●
When loading your cargo bike, make sure that reflectors and lighting are always
visible.
●
When driving, consider the extra weight of the luggage on the rear carrier and the
changed handling characteristics that this extra weight entails.
●
It is possible that the braking distance will be increased and the balance of the
cargo bike will be different if you add extra load / luggage.
●
Secure the luggage to the rear carrier using, for example, lashing straps to prevent
luggage from sliding.
●
Place heavy luggage so that the heaviest point is as low as possible, for example at
the bottom of the box or panniers.
●
Always make sure that it is not possible for straps or cables to get into moving
parts of the bicycle, for example a rotating wheel or the pedals.
