Warning
Riding with one or more loose bolts in the stem
The handlebars can be damaged or slip so badly that they can no longer be used safely.
•
After 20-50 km and at least every 3 months thereafter, check the screw tightening torque of the clamping screws on the stem
for the correct torque and tighten them if necessary.
•
When checking the tightening torque, also make sure not to exceed the maximum tightening torque.
•
Never ride with a loose handlebar.
Shortening the Width of the Handlebar
Note
•
Note that by shortening the width of the handlebars, you will affect the handling and steering characteristics of the bike.
•
Therefore, do not ride in traffic or off-road under any circumstances until you have become accustomed to the new feel. Only
after you have become completely accustomed to the new steering characteristics can the handlebars be used as usual in
the area of application assigned to them in accordance with ASTM F2043-13/ DIN EN 17406.
•
Before first use, pay attention to country-specific standards, rules and regulations, which may prescribe a minimum and
maximum dimension for the handlebar width.
•
Shortening the overall width to less than the minimum width listed below will void the warranty and a subsequent Crash
Replacement will not be possible. The widths listed below only indicate up to which width the product can still be driven.
As soon as this minimum width is not reached, the product is no longer drivable!
Shortening the total width of your SQlab handlebars is possible as follows:
The SQlab aluminum handlebars can be shortened with a fine-toothed metal saw or a pipe cutter (to mininmal 620/640/660 mm). After
shortening, deburr the end of the handlebar.
Warning
Structural modification of the handlebar
The handlebar can be damaged to such an extent that it can no longer be used safely.
•
Do not add holes to the handlebars
•
Do not add any additional paint to the handlebar.
eBike Ready
SQlab products with the eBike Ready award are suitable for use on pedelecs in their respective ASTM F2043-13/ DIN EN 17406 category
from the point of view of function, ergonomics and operational stability (in accordance with the DIN EN ISO 4210 and DIN EN ISO 15194
standards).
The SQlab eBike Ready award refers exclusively to use on pedelecs with a pedal assist of up to 25 km/h. The eBike Ready award

Exchange of SQlab Handlebars on Pedelec25
E-bikes and pedelecs with CE mark and a pedal assistance up to 25 km/h are covered by the Machinery Directive, so components of
these bikes may not be exchanged or modified without further ado. In order to provide clarity, the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV) and
Verbund Service und Fahrrad (VSF) associations, in cooperation with the Zedler Institute and the Bundesinnungsverband Fahrrad (BIV),
have published a joint guide to component replacement on e-bikes / pedelecs 25.
