8. Tips for use and safety
The Bunch Bike Coupe is a stable, three-wheeled cargo bike with the great advantage that when
stationary you can rest your feet on the pedals without having to pedal. Especially for a heavily
loaded cargo bike, this is an advantage over a two-wheeled bike, which is more difficult to handle in
that situation. Slow down on curves (see "Brakes") because there is always a risk of tipping at
excessive speeds, even with a three-wheeled cargo bike! When approaching the beginning of a
driveway, be sure to ride up over the curb with both front wheels at the same time - approach at a
right angle.
The Coupe a has front hatch. This is to make it easy for small children
or a dog to step in and out. The hatch is fastened on the left and right
with a latching system. When closing the hatch, make sure that the
pawls of the latches mesh well on the left and right sides of the
frame, to prevent the latch from opening accidentally while cycling.
To protect your children's fingers, The Coupe has specially developed
mudguards. Your children sit safely in the cargo box with three-point
safety belts.
8.1 Helmets
All riders and passengers should always wear a helmet. Helmets can significantly reduce your chance
of head injury in the event of a crash. Riding a Bunch cargo bike does not protect you or your children
from the risk inherent in riding with traffic. Make sure your helmet is U.S. Consumer Product Safety
Commission certified and always make sure you follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper fit
and size. Always properly attach your helmet. Never use a damaged helmet. If your helmet becomes
damaged, replace it immediately.
8.2 Children in the cargo bike
Children must be seated on the bench and properly buckled at all times when riding in the cargo
bike. Always check that your children’s seat belts are properly buckled, prior to each ride. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury to your child as a result of sudden acceleration or braking of the
bike, or in the case of a road collision.
Do not allow children to play inside or on the cargo bike unsupervised. Do not allow children to play
with the equipment mounted on the handlebars. Doing so can result in serious injury or death.
Make sure that your children keep their hands and all objects inside the cargo bike at all times. Do
not allow them to hang their arms out of the cargo box. Doings so can result in serious injury or
death.
Warning: Do not leave children unsupervised for any length of time while they are inside the cargo
bike. Doing so can result in serious injury or death.
