Braking and stopping
A cargo bike is heavier than a conventional bike, particularly when
loaded, which causes greater inertia. As a result, reaction time is
reduced and more anticipation is required when braking.
Be very careful not to lock the wheels, especially on
slippery or wet surfaces. It is also important to adapt
your braking to the load carried.
Vertical storage
You can store your LT vertically to save space. This is possible if your LT
has the Footrest accessory, which has buffers to stabilise the bike. This
accessory is available as an option from your Retailer or the DOUZE
Cycles Technical Centre and on our website.
Changing gears
To adjust the pedalling effort required to the incline, you will need to
change gears. Choosing the right bracket will also relieve the electric
assistance so it is not forced needlessly.
The derailleur’s trigger gears shifter lets you move up or down the gears.
Changing gears must occur while the bike is in
motion, never while it is at a standstill. This could
damage the transmission. Switch down a gear when
you come to a stop to make it easier to set off
again. This is even more important when the bike
is loaded. You should always release the pedalling
effort to change gears one by one.
