BERGAMONT speed pedelecs are regarded as motor vehicles, have an operat-
ing licence or EU type approval and are therefore subject to strict regulations
relating to the replacement of components and to changes. Modifications
without approval/type approval result in an expiration of the operating licence,
i.e. the BERGAMONT pedelec must no longer be used on public roads. Please
check in the country where you use your BERGAMONT speed pedelec whether
you require a moped licence or a driving licence for motor vehicles.
You can obtain a moped licence if you are aged 15 or over. Inform yourself at
your driving licence agency.
Inform yourself in the country where you use your BERGAMONT speed pedelec
about the regulations on the use of speed pedelecs on cycle lanes in built-up ar-
eas, on lanes which are marked with a road sign allowing access for mopeds, on
cycling one-way streets in the opposite direction, even when they are allowed to
bikes, and on the use of roads which are closed for motor vehicles, motor cycles
and mopeds.
Inform yourself in the country where you use your BERGAMONT speed pedelec
whether wearing a helmet (e) is compulsory. Also read the chapter “Useful facts
for riding a BERGAMONT speed pedelec”.
Only use trails that are allowed for speed pedelecs / e-bikes. Typical
BERGAMONT speed pedelecs are generally not suitable for off-road use (f).
Using BERGAMONT speed pedelecs off-road can result in crashes with unfore-
seeable consequences.
Your BERGAMONT speed pedelec is designed for a maximum overall weight,
including rider, luggage and BERGAMONT speed pedelec. The permissible
overall weight is 150kg / 330 lbs.

G
Be sure to use your BERGAMONT bike only for its intended purpose, as it
may otherwise not withstand the stress and fail. Risk of falling!
DANGER!
H

this applies in particular to the performance or the possibly assisted speed!
A modified pedelec or speed pedelec must no longer be used on public roads.
DANGER!
g
For your own safety, do not overestimate your riding skills. Please note that
though looking easy the tricks of a professional are hazardous to your life
and limb. Always protect yourself with suitable clothing.
Pedelecs
Pedelecs (pedal electric cycles) or EPACs (Electrically Power Assisted Cycles)
are bicycles with an auxiliary motor that only switches on when you move the
pedals. When you stop pedalling, the motor switches off.
A driving licence is not required for riding a BERGAMONT pedelec (a+b), if the
motor assistance switches off automatically at a speed of 25 kmh. You do not
need an operating licence and need not insure the pedelec either.
All regulations that apply to BERGAMONT bikes, also apply to BERGAMONT
pedelecs, i.e. using cycle paths is not compulsory. Wearing a helmet is rec-
ommended, but not compulsory. Please make sure you do not confuse your
BERGAMONT pedelec with a “BERGAMONT speed pedelec” (see “Speed
pedelecs).
Most BERGAMONT pedelecs are designed for cycling exclusively on lanes
and roads with a smooth surface. Only use trails that are allowed for bicycles.
For off-road use only BERGAMONT off-road pedelecs are suitable. Using
BERGAMONT trekking pedelecs off-road can result in crashes with unforeseea-
ble consequences.
Some BERGAMONT pedelecs have a pushing aid (c) which provides assistance
during pushing, even without pedalling, up to a speed of 6 kmh.
Your BERGAMONT pedelec is designed for a maximum overall weight, includ-
ing rider, luggage and BERGAMONT pedelec. The permissible overall weight is
150 kg / 330lbs.
Speed pedelecs
Speed pedelecs are bicycles with an auxiliary motor (d) which provides assistance
to the rider even beyond a speed of 25 kmh, as long as you continue pedalling.
The pedal-assist stops at a speed of 45 kmh. Without pedalling a BERGAMONT
speed pedelec provides assistance to a maximum speed of 20 kmh.
