The  rider  must  be  able  to ride  a  bicycle,  i.e.  he/she  must  have  the  necessary  basic  knowledge 
regarding the use of bicycle and the necessary feeling of balance to be able to steer and control a 
bicycle. Use your bicycle only if you have acquired riding and braking skills, also at high speeds. 

 

They rider must be able to get on a bicycle and get off it when a bicycle stops. This is particularly 
the case where a saddle is ergonomically set up and the rider’s feet while sitting do not reach the 
ground. 

 

If the rider wants to ride on the public roads and streets, he/she must be physically and mentally 
capable of using the bicycle in public road traffic. 

 

Always use the bicycle as recommended in this user manual and any additional documentation 
you may have. 

 

Riding after consuming alcohol is dangerous and illegal. 

 

Children should be transported in special seats. 

 

It is recommended to regularly check the brakes, tires, rims, steering and braking systems. 

 

The permitted total weight of bicycle, rider and luggage should not exceed 125 kg. The increased 
loads  impair  the  riding  behavior  of  bicycle  and  cause  the  braking  distance  to  extend.  If  you 
overload your bicycle, its components may fail or even break. All these may lead to dangerous 
situations during the ride, falls and accidents. 

 

Load your bicycle in such a way that you always have enough room to move and can always 
operate your bicycle safely when it is loaded. 

 

Adapt your riding to the more difficult riding behavior of bicycle. 

 

Do not use your bicycle for transporting goods, but only as an item of sports equipment and 
for moving from one location to another. 

 

Never use your bicycle with a bicycle trailer. 

 

Children should only be transported in child seats. Install the child safety seats only on the 
luggage racks that are suitable for this purpose. 

 

Contact the seller in the bicycle shop concerning the selection and mounting of a child seat. 
He/she will be pleased to advise you. 

 

Transport your luggage only on the suitable carrier system. 

 

It is recommended to use extreme caution on the downhill riding. 

 

During the installation of bicycle accessories, it is recommended to follow the assembly manual 
or contact the seller or the authorized service center for the advice. 

 

Before you ride your bicycle, you should check every time whether your bicycle is ready to ride. 
You should ensure every time that it is safe to operate. You should also consider the possibility 
that your bicycle may have  fallen over when it was not  supervised or that strangers may  have
