Caution:
Most clamps are
potential sources of
damage to large-diam-
eter frame tubes that
are not designed to be
fixed in such clamps.
Risk of crushing! Do not
use such systems with
carbon frames.
Caution:
If your bicycle has disc
brakes, be sure to
mount the safety locks
before transporting the
STEVENS bicycle with
the wheels removed.
Caution:
Secure the bicycles on
the bicycle carrier with
an additional lock when
you take a break for
example.
Caution:
Bear in mind that your car has a greater overall height with the bicycle on
it. Measure the overall height and place a sign stating the height some-
where in the cockpit or on the steering wheel so that it can be easily seen.
Whatever system you opt for, make sure that it complies with the relevant
safety standards of your country.
Read the operating instructions of the bicycle carrier and observe the permis-
sible payload and the recommended or prescribed maximum speed. Observe, if
necessary, the required bearing load of the coupling device.
By Train / By Public Transport
In cities the regulations for taking bicycles by public transport differ. There are
e.g. some places where you are only allowed to travel with your bicycle during off-
peak hours and with an additional bicycle ticket. Inform yourself in time about the
regulations of carrying the bicycle before you start the trip!
In some trains you can stow your bicycle in multi-purpose compartments. They
are often at the front or end of a train and marked with a bicycle sign.
Note:
Before you start your trip inform yourself in time about the conditions of
carriage and also observe the regulations and rules about bicycle transport
in the countries through which you intend to travel.
Caution:
Remove, if necessary,
heavy or bulky pannier
bags and luggage for
an easier boarding and
disembarking of the
train.
