or paved roads and cycle lanes, as well as on unpaved roads and gravel paths
of moderate grading. Under these conditions there may be contact with une-
ven terrain and loss of tyre contact with the ground may occur. Steps or kerbs
(jumps/drops) may only be ridden carefully up to a maximum height of 15 cm.
The intended range of the average speed is between 15 and 25 kmh (9.3 and
15.5 mph).
Before using
SCOTT condition 2 bicycles
on public roads, they must be
equipped with the devices prescribed for this purpose (lighting system, bell).
Observe the traffic rules when riding on public roads. You find more information
in the chapter “Legal Requirements for Riding on Public Roads”.
You find details as to the
maximum permissible overall weight
on the sticker on the
frame of your SCOTT bike and in the chapter “Notes on the maximum permissible
overall weight”. Under certain circumstances the permissible maximum weight can
be further limited by the component manufacturers’ recommendations for use.
WARNING
SCOTT condition 2 bicycles are not suitable for offroad use, jumps, slides,
stair riding, stoppies
(f)
, wheelies, tricks, etc. Cyclo-Cross & Gravel/Adven-
ture bikes are allowed in Competition.
Trailers and child seats are only permitted if outlined on your weight card
which came with your SCOTT bicycle. Note that SCOTT will not assume lia-
bility or provide guarantee for the use of trailers and child seats because of
the wide variety of fastening systems for them, the technical specifications
for these systems and the problems associated with them.
