GENERAL MANUAL | OWNER’S MANUAL 2021
• Do not overload your child/pet/cargo trailer. Overloading can result in breakage
of the frame, the fork or the components. Risk of accident and injury!
• If your trailer obstructs the lighting equipment of your SCOTT bike, you have to
mount the lighting equipment visibly to the trailer. Before riding in the dark, pro-
vide the rear end of the trailer with a battery/accumulator-operated lamp (d).
• Equip your trailer with a high safety flag to be seen better by other road users.
• Make sure your child always wears a helmet. Be a good example and remember
to always wear a helmet (e) yourself.
• Adjust the tyre pressure (f) to the additional weight. The maximum pressure is
indicated on the tyre side.
• Make yourself familiar with the modified riding and braking behaviour of your
SCOTT bike with child/pet/cargo trailer in an area free of traffic.
• Adjust your riding style especially in wet conditions to the modified riding char-
acteristics and braking response of your SCOTT bike.
• Start by practising riding with an empty trailer in an area free of traffic. If you feel
secure practise riding with your child or pet or the additional load in an area free
of traffic.
• Luggage and cargo or the weight of children or pets generally modify the riding
characteristics of your SCOTT bike and extend the stopping distance! Therefore,
practise riding and braking with your loaded SCOTT bike in a place free of traffic.
Ride particularly considerately and anticipate critical situations.
WARNING
Observe the maximum permissible speed limit of the child/pet/cargo trailer.
You find this information in the accompanying user manuals of the respective
manufacturer.
