WARNING
Unsuitable accessories may change the qualities of your SCOTT bike and
even cause an accident. Therefore, before fitting any accessories contact
your SCOTT dealer and observe the instructions regarding the intended use
of your SCOTT bike.
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.
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
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 (a). Make sure additional battery/accumula-
tor-powered lamps are marked with the wavy line and the letter “K”.
Bicycle locks
Do not forget to take a high quality D- (b) 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 (c). 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.
Cycle computers
There are electronic computers that show your current and average speed, your
daily and annual mileage as well as the duration of the present ride (d). Top-end
models show the highest speed that was reached, the difference in height, the
cadence or (with a special chest strap) your pulse rate as well.
Today, there are global positioning systems (GPS) and specific power meters for
optimal training on the market which are compatible with your SCOTT bike.
