Safety information for anti-lock braking systems
(ABS)
u
Tampering with the system components is not permit-
ted under any circumstances. The rider must adapt
their riding style to the environmental conditions (e.g.
the coefficient of friction between the tyres and the
ground, steep inclines, weather, additional loads,
etc.). Carrying an additional load that changes the
vehicle's centre of gravity in any way (e.g. a basket or
a child seat on the handlebars), which could increase
the tendency to pitch over, is not recommended.
u
WARNING – Tampering with components of the ABS
will prevent it from working correctly.
If any components of the braking system or the ABS are
tampered with, modified, or replaced with unauthorised
components, this may prevent the ABS from working as it
should. Correct operation cannot be guaranteed and
there is a greater risk of falling over. Servicing and repairs
must only be carried out by professionals. Defective parts
must always be replaced with original parts.
u
WARNING – ABS increases braking distance
The ABS prevents the front wheel from locking. This signi-
ficantly improves rider safety by reducing the risk of skid-
ding on low-friction surfaces and pitching over on high-
friction surfaces. In some situations, however, system in-
tervention may increase your braking distance. Always
adapt your riding style to the present environmental con-
ditions and your personal cycling abilities.
u
WARNING – Reckless riding
The presence of the ABS does not absolve the rider of the
need to exercise due caution. The system is primarily de-
signed to provide an additional safeguard in emergency
situations. The rider is always responsible for adapting
their riding style to the situation on the road.
u
WARNING – Braking around corners
The ABS is a safety system that reduces the risk of the
wheels locking when braking in a straight line with no lat-
eral forces acting on the vehicle. There is an inherently
greater risk of falling over when braking around corners.
The rider is always responsible for adapting their riding
style to the situation on the road.
u
WARNING – ABS intervention is limited.
In extreme riding situations, the ABS may not be able to
control the bicycle all the way through to the wheel com-
ing to a complete stop. The ABS function can be re-en-
abled for braking by briefly releasing the front-wheel
brake. Always adapt your riding style to the present envir-
onmental conditions and your personal cycling abilities.
u
WARNING – eBike pitchover
The ABS is not always able to prevent the vehicle pitching
over in extreme riding situations (e.g. when carrying a
heavy bag with a high centre of gravity or the vehicle hav-
ing a high centre of gravity, e.g. due to the saddle being
set high or variations in the road surface or steep des-
cents). Always adapt your riding style to the present en-
vironmental conditions and your personal cycling abilit-
ies.
u
WARNING – Air in the hydraulic system
The air in the system means that less braking force
can be built up, especially following intervention by
the ABS, in which the brake lever also moves a little
closer to the handlebars.
Before every journey, you
should therefore apply the brake to check whether there
is a clearly noticeable centre of pressure and whether
there is sufficient clearance between the brake lever and
the handlebar grip. The centre of pressure should be at
approximately 1/3 of the brake lever travel. In case of
doubt, set the brake lever to the maximum possible
length of travel. If air finds its way into the brake system,
please have it bled by a professional. Always adapt your
riding style to the present environmental conditions and
your personal cycling abilities.
u
CAUTION – Damage to components or risk of crushing
Take care not to trap components such as brake lines,
cable harnesses or parts of the body between the ABS
control unit and the frame. This will help prevent damage
to components and bodily injury, even in the event of the
handlebars fully locking.
