On the front rack you can also fasten suitable pannier bags (Fig. 65 and
66). However, make sure that the pannier bags do not hinder steering and
pedalling.

The
maximum permissible load weight on the rear rack
includes the cargo
and/or the passengers plus accessories and amounts to
27 kg
.
Make sure that the weight is spread as evenly as possible on the rear rack
and in the pannier bags. Always try to stow the load in a way that the cen-
tre of gravity of the entire load is as far as possible above the longitudinal
centre line of the CS. Keep this centre of gravity as low as possible. Poor
weight distribution can have negative effects on handling and braking.
For more information on the removal and mounting of the centre rack, see
