Retrofitted accessories, such as mudguards, pannier racks etc. can impair
the functioning of your SCOTT bike. Ask your SCOTT dealer for advice be-
fore mounting any kind of accessories to your bike.
CAUTION!
A
Before buying any additional bells or lighting accessories, inform yourself
thoroughly whether they are permitted and tested and accordingly ap-
proved for use on public roads. Make sure additional battery/accumulator-pow-
ered lamps are marked with the wavy line and the letter “K”
(c)
.
Bar ends
Flat handlebars can be equipped with bar ends
(d)
. Some thin-walled handle-
bars (primarily those made of aluminium or carbon fibre) require additional
handlebar plugs or other special parts to prevent the handlebars from being
crushed or broken. Be sure to have them mounted by your SCOTT dealer!
Bicycle locks
Do not forget to take a high quality D-
(e)
or chain lock with you on your ride.
The only way to effectively protect your SCOTT bike against theft is to lock it to
an immovable object.
Puncture kit
The most important accessories for a successful cycle tour are a tyre pump and
a small tool kit. The tool kit should include two plastic tyre levers, the most com-
monly used Allen keys, a spare tube, a tyre repair kit and a little cash
(f)
. In this
way you will be well prepared in the event of a puncture or some other mishap.
Take your mobile phone with you, as well.

Make sure that the pedals and shoe soles are always clear of mud and other
foreign bodies and grease the lock-in mechanism with lubricant at regular
intervals

Some cycling shoes with cleats are only suitable for walking to a limited
extent. As the cleats are sometimes thicker than the sole, they provide less
grip even on a non-slip ground. Be particularly careful.
NOTE!

Ask your SCOTT dealer for advice about the different shoe and pedal mod-
els. Cycling shoes come in various styles for specific uses.
NOTE!

Read the manual of the pedal manufacturer on this SCOTT info CD.
