INTENDED USE
To dene the intended purposes for the dierent types of bicycles and pedelecs, we have classied our
bikes in dierent categories. The purpose of this classication is to dene the test requirements com-
plying with the respective stress as early as during the development of our bikes. This is to ensure the
highest possible level of safety for the use of our bikes.
It is therefore of major importance that the bikes and pedelecs are not used under conditions beyond
the intended use, as this bears the risk that the bikes’ and pedelecs’ maximum load is exceeded and the
frame or other components are damaged. This can result in severe crashes.
The
maximum permitted overall weight
should not exceed
130 kg
.
If the maximum permitted overall
weight of your model is dierent from this, this is marked on the frame sticker.
The maximum permitted overall weight is calculated as follows:
Weight of pedelec (kg)
+ Weight of cyclist (kg)
+ Weight of luggage (e.g. rucksack, pannier bags)
+ Weight of trailer including load, persons and/or animals (kg), only if approved
= Maximum permitted overall weight (kg)
The pedelecs are not approved in gener-
al for mounting child carriers.
