Section A. Important Safety Information
GT Bicycle Owner’s Manual
Child Carriers
WARNINGS
Child carriers add weight and raise the center of gravity, making balance and cornering more difficult. If
you loose control, you and your child passenger can be severely injured or killed.
We urge you NOT to install child carriers on bicycles. If you choose to install a child carrier, have an
experienced bicycle mechanic install it. Install only on a compatible bicycle. If you insist on using a
child carrier we urge that you confirm with both the carrier rack manufacturer and the child carrier
manufacturer that the two products are safely compatible. Always use caution when riding with a child
carrier.
Some saddles are equipped with coil springs. If you use a rear rack mounted child carrier there is a risk
that a child’s fingers could be injured if trapped in the coil springs when the rider hits a bump and the
springs compress. Be sure that the child cannot reach the springs when properly strapped in the carrier.
We encourage use of trailers or bicycles specially designed for carrying children. Be very careful when
towing a trailer. Remember that braking distances increase, and the trailer will track inside the line of
the bicycle when making turns. Children should always wear helmets when riding in a child carrier or
trailer. Use of bicycle helmets on children is required by law in many areas.
Distracted Attention
WARNING
DISTRACTED ATTENTION: Do not allow any accessories to distract your attention or to impair your
ability to operate your bicycle safely.
Do not stare at electronic devices (e.g.,light controls, iPhones, Android phones, lighting system, remote
cameras, or cycling computers) while you are riding. Distractions will take your attention away from the
important tasks of riding your bicycle.
Fully stop your bike in a safe place away from traffic before adjusting, changing modes or otherwise
interacting with the App, or any other controls.”
