V.III Pedelec weight
Forsafetyreasonswerecommendyouweighyourpedelec
because the weight can vary due to various equipment
characteristics, accessories and frame heights, otherwise
you risk fracturing the frame. This can lead to severe falls
that could result in death or serious injury.
V.IV The maximum permissible total weight
WARNING
Do not exceed the the maximum permissible total weight of the
pedelec, because it can lead to the fracture or failure of safety-
relevant parts (such as the brakes). If this happens while you are
riding the bike, it can lead to severe falls – with fatal consequences.
Total weight = Weight of the bike + weight of the rider + weight of the
trailer bike or trailer + weight of luggage and/or child.
Example calculation:
259 lbs total weight = 61 lbs weight of the bike + 165 lbs weight of
the rider + 22 lbs weight of the trailer + 11 lbs weight of the luggage.
259 lbs is below the allowed total weight of 287 lbs and is therefore
permissible.
