MISCELLANEOUS

THE LUGGAGE CARRIER

As the name indicates, the luggage

carrier is intended for luggage and not

passengers.

Look at the text on the carrier itself,

or consult your Batavus dealer, for the

maximum acceptable load.

Ensure that a saddlebag is hung on the

luggage carrier and not on the bag

distancer!

THE STAND

The Batavus bicycle is sturdy and stable,

so that the bicycle is not as likely to fall

over in high winds.

• Do not push the bicycle forwards wit-

hout lifting it slightly to get the stand

to fold away, or you will damage the

stand and frame.

• Never sit or cycle on a bicycle if the

stand is still down! This is for your own

safety and to avoid damage to your

bicycle.

• You must also remove your child from

the child’s seat before putting the bicy-

cle stand down and vice versa: ﬁ rst fold

away the stand and then put the child

in the child’s seat.

CHILD’S SEATS

Various recommendations are given

below in the interests of the safety of

parent and child.

Batavus gives preference to a child’s seat

at the rear of the bicycle and ﬁ xed to the

frame (vertical back fork or seat tube). A

child’s seat mounted on the front of the

bicycle affects the steering. If, despite

this, you opt for a child’s seat on the

front of the bicycle, choose one with a

headset mounting (this is a system for

mounting the seat on the frame) or stee-

ring pin mounting and not one which

hangs on the handlebars themselves. This

means that the frame carries the load

rather than the carrier or the handlebars.

A bicycle with an extra sturdy frame,

roomy, low step-over, broadly construc-

ted handlebars and a very solid stand is

the most appropriate bicycle for child’s

seats on the front and rear of the

bicycle. In the case of the more sporty

bicycles, the use of a child’s seat on the

front restricts the step-over room.

• You can also consult your Batavus dea-

ler about dress guards, child’s seats with

foot protection to keep your child’s feet

out of the way of the spokes or a spring

cover to reduce the risk of your child’s

ﬁ ngers from getting caught between

the coiled springs of the saddle.

MAINTENANCE

SERVICES AND YOUR DEALER

Vital components such as cables, spokes

and brakes get the chance to settle in

the running-in period. Your Batavus

dealer may call you back one or more

times for careful examination and

adjustment or you can call in his help

yourself (40). Furthermore, he will, of

course provide assistance in the event

of breakdowns, doubts, strange noises

or obstinate faults so that he can de-

tect and correct any shortcomings at an

early stage.

However, to be able to continue

enjoying cycling, and cycling safely,

professional maintenance is neces-

sary, including an annual service. Your

dealer not only has the tools and the

experience to adjust and grease hid-

den rotating components such as the

headset, freewheel and hubs, but his

expertise also enables him to recognize
