Loose luggage rack
Only install baggage racks on bicy-
cles which are suitable for this kind
of equipment. Use only the intend-
ed xing devices. If you own a frame or parts
made of carbon, ask your specialist retailer
for transportation of luggage. Don`t x racks
at the seat post! It is not constructed for this
use. An overload of the seat post by a rack
can result in a break of the seat post and
serious accidents.
When loading luggage racks,
please make sure not to cover front
or rear lights or reectors!
Avoid uneven loading of the luggage racks.

Rack
Transporting baggage changes the
behaviour of your bicycle. In particu-
lar, it increases the braking distance,
which can lead to serious injuries. Please
adjust your riding style to this, i. e. brake ear-
lier and anticipate more sluggish steering.
Only transport baggage on racks intended
for this purpose! Never attach a baggage
rack to the seat post! It is not designed for
this purpose. Subjecting this part of the bicy-
cle to excess weight with a rack can lead to
breaks in the seat post and serious falls!
Only mount child seats on baggage racks
if they have the corresponding holders and
the manufacturers permit this.
Please ensure that nothing can get caught
in the spokes and turning wheels.
If you are riding with baggage, en-
sure that you do not exceed the max-
imum permissible weight of the bicy-
cle (see page C5). Information on the weight
capacity of the rack is also stated here.
When loading luggage racks,
please make sure not to cover front
or rear lights or reectors!
Avoid uneven loading of the luggage racks.
Front rack
Front racks are attached to the front
axle or the front fork. Front racks
have a strong impact on the bicy-
cle’s behaviour! Please practice riding in a
safe area before riding with a loaded front
rack for the rst time!
