Components allowed to be changed according to the bike or
bike part’s manufacturer
• Pedal crank arm
(Provided that the distances/chainsets/frame
centre (Q-Factor) are observed)
• Wheel without hub motor
(Provided that the ETRTO is observed)
• Chain or drive belt
(Provided that the original width is observed)
• Rim tape
(Use the correct rim tapes for the rims) Modi-
fied combinations may result in rim tape shift -
ing and thus in defective inner tubes)
• Tyres
(The increased acceleration, additional weight
and more dynamic cornering require the use
of tyres approved for e-bike use. As a result,
compliance with the ETRTO is essential)
• Brake hoses/brake cables
• Brake pads
(Disc, roller, drum brakes)
• Handlebar/stem unit
(Provided that there is no need to change the
lengths of cables and/or hoses. It should be
possible to change the seating position with-
in the original hose lengths for the benefit of
the consumer. Going beyond that results in a
significantly changed load distribution on the
wheel and could seriously affect steering)
• Saddle and seat post unit
(Provided that the offset to the rear does not
exceed 20 mm with regard to the series/orig-
inal area of application. In this case as well,
modifying the load distribution beyond the in-
tended adjustment range could seriously affect
steering.
The length of the saddle brace on the saddle
frame as well as the saddle shape are also im-
portant)
• Bicycle lights
(Headlights are designed for a specific voltage
which must be compatible with the vehicle’s re-
chargeable batteries. In addition, electromagnet-
ic compatibility (EMC) must be ensured provided
that the headlight may be responsible for a part
of the potential interference)
• Sprockets and derailleur cassettes
*The manufacturer of the part can only approve a component
if it was tested in accordance with its intended use and with
standards beforehand. A risk analysis must also have been
performed.

number of gears and be compatible with one
another)
• Gear lever
• Gear cables and housings
•
Chain rings/belt pulleys/sprockets
(Provided that the number of teeth and the di-
ameter is identical to the series/original area of
application)
