If you notice that a wheel guard is damaged, always replace it before using the bike again. If you carry pannier bags or other loads on the pannier racks, make sure they are securely attached. Make sure that nothing can become caught in the spokes and the turning wheels. 23.2.1 Re-engaging the safety-release mechanism Only fit child seats to rear pannier racks if suitable fixtures are provided. In doing so, be careful not to exceed the permissible weight category. Safety mechanism released Safety mechanism engaged A plastic clip is attached to the end of the strut. 23.2 Wheel guards / mudguards Additional struts are mounted to hold the mudguards in the correct position. The strut is at its ideal length if the inner edge of the wheel guard runs more or less concentrically and parallel to the tyre. The wheel guard cannot detach when you are riding normally. If a foreign object lodges between the front wheel guard and the tyre and blocks it, the mudguard struts immediately detach from their mountings on the fork. This allows the mudguard to deflect and the wheel will not block. › Insert this clip on the strut into the easy-clip mount on the fork until it engages. › Align the wheel guard so that the tyre and front wheel guard do not touch. To securely reattach the safety-release mechanism, you may need to push the strut and plastic mount slightly together by pressing hard. If this happens, the struts must be securely reattached. Have a specialist cycle shop check that the mudguard, struts and plastic mounts are still in a serviceable condition. Never ride with the strut detached, it must be reattached. If this is not possible, have the strut replaced by a professional bike workshop. Check regularly that the struts are securely fastened in the safety-release mechanisms. I General User Manual 51
