• The use of unauthorised accessories
may lead to accidents, severe falls
and damage . You should therefore
only use original accessories and
add-on parts which fit your FLYER.
The warranty and/or guarantee can become void
if unapproved accessories are used .
FLYER AG cannot be held liable in connection
with the use of unauthorised accessories . Please
be aware that tuning the e-bike or manipulating
the speed may have legal consequences .
The installation of accessories might
damage the paint work . The frame, bat-
tery or components may not be changed
and no holes may be drilled into them in
order to attach accessories .
21. Riding with
additional load
Luggage carrier /riding with luggage
Transporting baggage changes the driving per-
formance of your FLYER e-bike. Not only is the
braking distance lengthened with more weight,
the steering is also less responsive . You should
therefore adjust your driving style to the braking
and steering behaviour of your FLYER, and al-
ways anticipate a longer braking distance . Only
transport luggage on the approved luggage racks
and ensure that the maximum permitted overall
weight as well as the maximum load capacity of
the luggage rack are not exceeded . These values
may never be exceeded. Do not fix luggage racks
on the seat post; this can lead to breakages and
to very serious falls. The manufacturer's warranty
will also be rendered void in this case .
Make sure that your luggage is firmly
and safely attached when transporting
packing bags or other loads . Ensure that
no parts can get hooked in the spokes or
the turning wheels .
21.1 Transporting children/child
seats
The use of child seats is not permitted and is not
approved by the manufacturer .
The safe transport of children is the responsibili-
ty of the cyclist . FLYER AG cannot be held liable
in connection with the transport of children and
the resulting risks . In Germany, child trailers are
not permitted on S-pedelecs with assistance up
to 45 km/h .
21.2 Bicycle trailers
The safe transport of children is the responsibility
of the cyclist . FLYER AG cannot be held liable in
connection with the transport of children and the
resulting risks .
Please inform yourself of the applicable
national guidelines before you use a
trailer, especially when transporting chil-
dren . Only use trailers that satisfy the
requirements of the applicable national
legal guidelines .
The use of a trailer may lead to severe
falls and injuries .
It is not permitted to use a fast e-bike to
transport children in a child trailer in Ger-
many .
Ensure additional safety when riding
with a child trailer . Use clearly visible,
colourful flags and additional lighting
elements .
Only use tested and licensed trailers and
safety equipment .
• The handling of the FLYER e-bike is
negatively influenced by using a trail-
er . You should therefore adjust your
driving style accordingly . Otherwise
there is a danger that the trailer could
flip over or come off, which could lead
to very serious falls and accidents .
• Bike trailers will significantly extend
the overall length of your FLYER .
Practise setting off, braking, riding
around corners and on hills in a safe
place with an empty trailer .
• The
maximum
weight of the vehicle also includes
the weight of the trailer and any other
load .
• You may require a substantially
longer braking distance to stop when
riding with a trailer . Take care so as to
avoid accidents .
• Ask your FLYER specialist retailer
about the maximum permitted weight
of the trailer you may tow with your
FLYER .
• Ask your FLYER specialist retailer
about the correct selection and instal-
lation of the trailer coupling .
21.3 Roof and rear carrier on a car
• Only use rear carriers which satisfy
the applicable national legislation for
transporting your bike by car . The use
of rear carriers may lead to accidents .
