not to over-load the trailer, because the risk of tipping over gets greater,
the heavier you load the trailer.
Before every ride
Check the following before every ride:
-
Properly fit wheels
-
Correct tire pressure of the wheels (see tire manufacturer
’s
information)
-
All snap-locks firmly locked

Requirements for the cyclist
Inform yourself about the legal regulations of the country or the region,
in which you want to use the reacha. Reacha is an un-braked trailer. The
lighter the bike and the driver, the higher the risk that the loaded reacha
will cause the rear wheel of the bike to burst.
Children under the age of 16 are not allowed to use a bike trailer.
Requirements for the lead bike
The lead bike must be approved for use with cargo trailers by the
manufacturer. Moreover, it must be in a technically perfect state and
correspond with the state of the art. Ensure that the brakes of the bike
are working perfectly before each ride.
General correct way of driving
Drive on curbs and bumps with minimal speed. There is an increased risk
of tipping-over especially with the unloaded trailer. If the trailer tips
over, it can lead to accidents with life-threatening consequences.
Never drive on stairs or escalators with your trailer.
