Condition 2 SCOTT Bicycles
In general, SCOTT condition 2 bicycles (a-c) are used, for example, for leisure and
trekking rides under moderate exertion.
SCOTT condition 2 bicycles are for use on normal, paved surfaces, i.e. asphalted
or paved roads and cycle lanes, as well as on unpaved roads and gravel paths of
moderate grading. Under these conditions there may be contact with uneven
terrain and loss of tyre contact with the ground may occur. Steps or kerbs (jumps/
drops) may only be ridden carefully up to a maximum height of 15cm. The intend-
ed range of the average speed is between 15 and 25kmh (9.3 and 15.5mph).
These bicycles are not suitable for off-road, cyclo-cross or mountain bike use or
jumps and competitive use of any kind whatsoever.
Before using SCOTT condition 2 bicycles on public roads, they must be equipped
with the devices prescribed for this purpose (lighting system, bell). Observe the
traffic rules when riding on public roads. You find more information in the chapter
“Legal Requirements for Riding on Public Roads” in the translation of your detailed
original SCOTT operating instructions “Trekking and Trekking-Pedelec” on the
SCOTT web page.
You find details as to the maximum permissible overall weight on the sticker on the
frame of your SCOTT bike and in the chapter “Notes on the maximum permissible
overall weight”. Under certain circumstances the permissible maximum weight can
be further limited by the component manufacturers’ recommendations for use.
WARNING
SCOTT condition 2 bicycles are not suitable for offroad use, jumps, slides,
stair riding, stoppies, wheelies, tricks, etc. and not for competitive use of any
kind whatsoever!
Trailers and child seats are only permitted if outlined on your weight card
which came with your SCOTT bicycle. Note that SCOTT will not assume liabil-
ity or provide guarantee for the use of trailers and child seats because of the
wide variety of fastening systems for them, the technical specifications for
these systems and the problems associated with them.
Luggage carriers are permitted on SCOTT condition 2 bicycles, if the rear
stays and the drop-outs of your SCOTT bike have fastening devices for lug-
gage carriers. In this case mounting a suitable luggage carrier is permitted.
Contact your SCOTT dealer before mounting.
