12 Replacing components of the
fast Pedelec
As your fast Pedelec is a Category L1e moped. As is the
case with other motor vehicles in Germany, it is necessary
to obtain a permit rom the Federal Motor Transport Au-
thority and the technical inspection authority (TÜV). This
fast Pedelec has such a permit.
During the approval process, speciic components were
deined as being suitable for use with this vehicle. This
means that the permit for your fast Pedelec only remains
valid if exactly the same components in the approved
model are used.
If components are subsequently modiied, the same re-
quirements that apply with other motor vehicles take
efect. You must only use replacement parts that are certi-
ied as approved for your fast Pedelec. Alternatively, you
can have components approved individually by the techni-
cal inspection authority (TÜV).
The following lists show which components of your fast
Pedelec can be replaced and what provisions apply.
