Legal requirements regulating the use on public roads
If you would like to use your bike on public roads, it
must be equipped in accordance with the valid legal
regulations of your country. Familiarise yourself with
the valid regulations in your country before using your
bike on a public road.
Please note that bike lights are required in most coun-
tries. In most cases, the lights are powered by a dynamo
on the bike. Battery-powered lights are often not per-
mitted. Familiarise yourself with the valid regulations
in your country.
Please also consider other requirements of your local
legislative body. Some regulations also require a bike
bell or other signal.
The Porsche Bike includes a reflector set that satisfies
international legal reflector requirements. The reflectors
are not pre-mounted for your specific country. If you
would like to equip your bike with the required reflec-
tors, please determine which reflectors are needed
based on the following table. Please note that a
complete reflector configuration includes special
pedals with reflectors, which must be mounted on
your bike.
Please also consider that the Porsche Bike RX and
Bike RS do not include spoke reflectors for France
and Australia. If you would like to use your bike
in these countries, we ask that you subsequently
mount spoke reflectors which comply with the local
regulations of your country.
Mounting the reflectors
The Porsche bikes include reflector sets which comply
with international regulations for reflectors [ except
spoke reflectors for the Porsche Bikes RX und RS for
Crankbrothers Cobalt wheels for France and Australia ].
The required mounting materials are also included.
Use the NGH-318 handlebar clamp for a handlebar
diameter of 31.8 mm to mount the front reflector.
The fasteners and reflectors are directly labelled with
the respective codes.
Push the open holder over the handlebar. Then push
the holder as close as possible to the middle of
the handlebars and screw it in place with a Philips
screwdriver.
Once the clamp is securely positioned on your
handlebar, push the white reflector RR-180-SL onto
the holder.
Proceed similarly when mounting your rear reflector.
Mount the NGS-272 seat post holder on your seat
post and slide the red 180-SK reflector onto the
holder. Please make sure that the reflector is not in
your way when riding the bike and that the seat post
is pushed in far enough.
The following table indicates which spoke reflectors
you will need for your Porsche bike and for your
respective country. Please note that all reflectors and
fasteners are labelled with the respective codes.
Proceed as follows to mount the spoke reflectors on
your Porsche bike: Place the reflector on a spoke
from the inside with the fastener up. Gently clamp
the reflector between the two opposing spokes. Turn
the fixing clamp into the reflector and tighten it with
a slotted screwdriver. If applicable, push the reflector
between the spokes in the radial direction.
Proceed as follows to mount the spoke reflectors on
your Porsche Bike RX and Porsche Bike RS:
– Push the reflector between 2 spokes so that the
hatched side is on the spokes and the reflector
is firmly positioned between a 3
rd
spoke.
– Slide the enclosed mounting caps over the
reflector ends from both sides and screw them
in place with the enclosed star-headed screws.
– Check whether the reflectors are positioned in
a radial direction towards the tyre.
WARNING
PLEASE NOTE
Risk of damage to the spokes.
Do not apply
excessive force when bracing the reflector between
the spokes.
Loose spoke reflectors.
A loose spoke reflector
may cause a crash. Make sure that there is no risk of
the reflector twisting and that it is securely positioned
between the spokes.
