Transporting children
Take these precautions to give young rid-
ers the safest, best experience possible.
Trek cargo bikes are designed to accom-
modate children if desired: rear cargo in
the rear; front cargo in the front. Cargo
bikes are not designed to transport adult
passengers.
Children must only be transported using
approved child carriers, or the optional
Trek accessories intended for transporting
children.
Rear cargo bike: when children ride on
the back of this bike, we recommend they
wear closed-toe shoes.
NOTE: Not all locations allow carrying pas-
sengers when riding on public roadways.
Consult your local authorities for the laws
in your location.
Ensure initially and re-check from time to
time that the child’s height and weight do
not exceed the maximum capacity of an
individual seat. See page 1-14 for weight
limits.
Ensure there are no sharp objects which
the child can touch, e.g. frayed cables.
Follow all provided instructions to ensure
children are properly restrained prior to
each ride. When Trek child carrying acces-
sories are used, all included instructions
and warnings must be followed, and all
required equipment must be tted. In-
structions for all accessories can be found
on trekbikes.com/manuals.
