24 Accessories and equipment
Always install enclosed accessories according to
the instructions. Use the correct tightening torques
for screw connections (see
➠
Chapter 30 "Technical
data"
).
›
Only use accessory parts that meet the require-
ments of the national road traffic licensing
regulations (these are the Road Traffic Licensing
Regulations (StVZO) in Germany for example).
›
Non-approved accessory parts are not safe for
use in traffic and can cause accidents. All acces-
sories or add-on components must be compatible
with your bike
›
Otherwise accidents could occur or the bike
could be damaged. Ask your specialist cycle shop
for advice.
24.1 Child seat
You can carry a child up to the age of seven years on
the child seat. The rider must be at least 16 years old
in Germany.
A child seat must not be mounted on a carbon frame
as this could damage the frame.
›
Only use child seats that satisfy the standard
EN 14344.
›
These child seats must safely support the child's
feet.
›
Never leave your child sitting unattended in the
child seat when you park your bike. The bike
could fall over and severely injure the child.
›
Never attach the child seat to the bike handle-
bars directly as it will not be possible to steer
the bike safely.
›
Do not use a suspension saddle if you are car-
rying a child in a child seat behind the saddle.
The child's fingers could be crushed. The coil
springs under the seat must always be com-
pletely wrapped or covered in such a way that
it is impossible to insert fingers into the coils of
the springs.
›
Always strap the child into the child seat as oth-
erwise it could fall out and be severely injured.
›
Make sure that children wear a snug fitting bicy-
cle helmet as otherwise a severe head injury may
result in the event of a crash.
When using a child seat, this adversely affects the
handling of the bike. The additional weight can cause
the bike to sway and significantly increases the brak-
ing distance. Adapt your handling accordingly.
Not all bikes equipped with a suspension system are suit-
able for transporting child seats
Check the mounting options or consult your specialist
cycle shop. If the child seat is mounted incorrectly, a seri-
ous accident may occur.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible gross weight of
the bike and the maximum load-carrying capacity of the
pannier rack (see
➠
Chapter 30 "Technical data" ). If you
do, this could damage the pannier rack and frame and
cause a serious accident.
