Luggage rack (optional accessory)
A loaded luggage rack changes the way the bike handles. It has a negative effect on
the steering- and braking properties, in particular. The braking distance may
increase. Risk of accident!
Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of the luggage rack (see the information
on the luggage rack).
When transporting items, make sure that the rear light and reflectors on the tyre
walls can be easily seen by other road users.
Do not use a loose strap to secure the items being transported as the hanging ends
of the straps can get caught up in the rear wheel.

Suspension forks RockShox Recon 29'' (optional accessory)
The RockShox Recon 29'' suspension fork reliably
provides the necessary traction and control on
difficult road surfaces.
A lockout function disables the fork's suspension
function to allow you to pedal efficiently on a level
road surface. To enable it, turn the setting head
"lockout" on the fork crown clockwise as far as it
goes. To prevent damage to the suspension fork, only
use the lockout function on a level surface.
The stiffness of the suspension can be adjusted using the valve on the left side of the fork
crown in order to adjust the fork to the driver's weight using a standard fork pump. If you sit
on the bike when stationary, the suspension fork should spring up by approx. 20 % of the
entire spring travel.
The right-hand fork has a knob which can be used to adjust the speed with which the fork
springs down. When riding over an obstacle, the suspension fork should spring down quickly,
however it should also not oscillate more than once.
