• Uncontrolled movements of the child or pet can cause your GRANVILLE bike and/ or the trailer to tilt. Therefore, always buckle up your children and pets in the trailer.
• Do not overload your child/pet/cargo trailer. Overloading can result in breakage of the frame, the fork or the components. Risk of accident and injury!
• If your trailer obstructs the lighting equipment of your GRANVILLE bike, you have to mount the lighting equipment visibly to the trailer. Before riding in the dark, provide the rear end of the trailer with a battery/accumulator-operated lamp (a).
• Equip your trailer with a high safety flag to be seen better by other road users.
• Make sure your child always wears a helmet. Be a good example and remember to always
wear a helmet (b) yourself.
• Adjust the tyre pressure (c) to the additional weight. The maximum pressure is indicated on
the tyre side.
• Make yourself familiar with the modified riding and braking behaviour of your GRANVILLE bike with child/pet/cargo trailer in an area free of traffic.
• Adjust your riding style especially in wet conditions to the modified riding characteristics and braking response of your GRANVILLE bike.
• Start by practising riding with an empty trailer in an area free of traffic. If you feel secure practise riding with your child or pet or the additional load in an area free of traffic.
• Luggage and cargo or the weight of children or pets generally modify the riding characteris- tics of your GRANVILLE bike and extend the stopping distance! Therefore, practise riding and braking with your loaded GRANVILLE bike in a place free of traffic. Ride particularly considera- tely and anticipate critical situations.
