5. Be careful when transporting a RIDE+ bike.
• An E-bike is heavier than a normal bike. If transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum
load capacity of the vehicle's roof, towing hook and/or of the applied bike carrier.
Refer to the manual of the vehicle and bike carrier for details.
• Remove the controller, battery pack and, if present, panniers from the bicycle and store them
elsewhere in the vehicle during the drive.
• Always respect local laws about transportation of a(n electric) bicycle.
• Because Li-Ion battery packs of this size and power are considered 'Dangerous goods, class 9'
when transporting, regulations may restrict the transport of separate Li-Ion batteries in some
places. The restrictions apply to most airlines and some trucking companies. But, if you intend
to ship or travel with your complete RIDE+ bike (with installed battery pack), the regulations
are less strict. Make sure to check ahead with your airline or carrier, before booking your trip, if
it is allowed to travel with your complete RIDE+ bike.
6. Visit your dealer on a regular basis for maintenance of your new bike.
• Your dealer has the right knowledge and equipment to maintain your RIDE+ bike.
• If you have questions about your new RIDE+ bicycle, ask your dealer!
