Overview

Proper use
The pedelec must only be used in perfect, fully
functional condition. National requirements may
apply to the pedelec which the standard
equipment may not meet. For riding on public
roads, some special regulations apply in relation
to the riding light, reflectors and other components.
The general laws and the regulations for the
prevention of accidents and environmental
protection in the respective country of use must be
adhered to. All check lists and instructions for
actions in these
operating instructions
met.
Approved accessories can be installed by
specialist staff.
The rechargeable batteries are designed to
supply power to the pedelec motor only and must
not be used for other purposes.
Each pedelec is assigned a Pedelec type
,
which
determines its proper usage, function and area of
use.

bicycles for young

Folding bicycle
City and trekking
bicycles are designed
for daily, comfortable
use. They are
suitable for riding on
public roads.
The legal guardians
of minor riders must
read and understand
these
operating
instructions
before
commissioning.
The contents of these
operating
instructions
must be
communicated to the
riders in an age-
appropriate manner.
The cycles for
children and young
adults are suitable for
riding on public
roads. The size of the
pedelec must be
checked regularly for
orthopaedic reasons.
A check must be
made at least every
three months to make
sure that the
maximum permitted
total weight is being
observed.
Mountain bikes are
designed for sporting
use. The design
characteristics
include a short
wheelbase, a sitting
position with the rider
inclined towards the
front, and a brake
requiring low
actuation force.
A mountain bike is a
piece of sporting
equipment. It requires
an adaptation period
and the rider must be
physically fit. Use
requires the
appropriate training;
in particular riding in
bends and braking
should be practised.
The strain on the
rider, in particular the
hands and wrists,
arms, shoulders,
neck and back, is
accordingly high.
Inexperienced riders
tend to brake
excessively and lose
control as a result.
A racing bicycle is
designed for fast
rides on roads and
paths with a good,
undamaged road
surface.
A racing bicycle is a
piece of sporting
equipment and not a
means of transport. A
racing bicycle is
characterised by its
lightweight structure
and a design which is
stripped to the
minimum parts
required for riding.
The frame geometry
and the layout of the
operating elements
are designed in such
a way that the bicycle
can be ridden at high
speeds. The frame
design requires
practice to ensure the
ride is able to ride
slowly, apply the
brakes and get on
and off the bike
safely.
The sitting position is
athletic. The strain on
the rider, in particular
the hands and wrists,
arms, shoulders,
neck and back, is
accordingly high. The
sitting position
therefore requires
physical fitness.
The cargo bike is
suitable for daily
transportation of
loads on public roads.
The transportation of
loads requires skill
and physical fitness
in order to balance
the additional weight.
The very varied
loading conditions
and weight
distributions require
special practice and
skill when braking
and riding in bends.
A longer period is
required to adaptation
to the length, width
and turning circle.
You need to be
cautious when riding
a cargo bike. You
must pay attention to
the traffic on public
roads and the
condition of the route
accordingly.
The folding bicycle is
suitable for use on
public roads.
A folding bicycle can
be folded up and is
thus suitable for
space-saving
transportation, for
example on public
transport or in a car.
The folding function
of the folding bicycle
makes it necessary to
use smaller wheels
and longer brake
cables and Bowden
cables. Therefore, in
case of an increased
load, a reduction in
riding stability and
braking power,
diminished comfort
and reduced
durability are to be
expected.
