TRANSPORT OF THE SCOTT BIKE OR SCOTT PEDELEC

BY CAR

Nearly every car accessory dealer and car company offers carrier systems (e)

that allow the transport of a bike without disassembly.

The usual design involves rails fixed to the roof of the car onto which the bicy-

cles are fixed with clamps gripping the down or the top tubes. This can, howev-

er, result in irreparable damage to the frame. High-end, very thin-walled alumin-

ium or carbon frames are particularly susceptible to such kind of damage. Due

to the material properties of carbon, you may not see a severe damage at first

sight. This can result in an unforeseeable severe accident at a later date. There

are, however, special suitable models available in the car accessory trade.

Rear carriers are becoming more and more popular. Their big advantage over

roof carriers is that you do not have to lift up the bicycle so high to attach it.

Make sure the clamps do not cause any damage to the fork or frame. Risk of

breakage!

Whatever system you opt for, make sure it complies with the relevant safety

standards, e.g. DIN/EN standards of your country (GS symbol).

Read the manual of your bicycle carrier and comply with the maximum load

capacity and recommended or prescribed driving speed. If applicable, comply

with the required supporting load on the trailer hitch.

DANGER!

Make sure to remove all parts of your SCOTT bike (tools, pannier bags,

tachometers (f) etc.) which may come loose during transport. Risk of acci-

dent!

DANGER!

Towing devices have a strong influence on the riding characteristics of your

SCOTT bike. The weight of both the hitched kids’ bike and the child will

make the bicycle somewhat top-heavy. Your SCOTT bike may tend to wobble.

Practise getting on and off your bicycle as well as cycling. Keep in mind, in par-

ticular when turning, that your bicycle including trailer system is much longer.

DANGER!

It is also important for you to practise with your child how to behave on

a hitched bicycle during the ride. Make sure your child wears a helmet (a)

even when riding on a tandem bicycle. Set a good example by wearing a helmet,

as well!

DANGER!

Only buy tested trailer systems (b) (e.g. DIN/EN/GS tested systems) and

have them properly mounted. The manuals of the manufacturers included

in the delivery of your trailer system, provide detailed information in this regard.

DANGER!

When riding in the dark the attached kids’ bike should be fitted with the

prescribed lighting (c), i.e. the latter should be marked with a wavy line and

the letter “K” (d). If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your

SCOTT dealer. If the bottle dynamo’s roller does not spin, we recommend a

tested battery-powered rear light.

NOTE!

If you want to use your SCOTT bike for towing a trailer system, check

whether it is approved for towing. Have a look at the SCOTT bike card or

ask your SCOTT dealer for advice.
