21.1 Bicycletrailers
You are allowed to transport one or a maximum
of two children in a bicycle trailer with the FLYER
Goroc X models up to a trailer load of 40 kg. The
frames bear the following label:
The maximum trailer load and the listed tongue
load may not be exceeded.
The following applies when using child
trailers:
– Max. trailer load of 40 kg for FLYERs with a per-
missible total weight of 140 or 150 kg
– The tongue load must be between 2 kg (min.)
and 8 kg (max.)
– Only allowed for e-bikes with hydraulic brakes
– Only allowed for mountain e-bikes with an alu-
minum rear section
– Fast e-bikes (S-pedelecs) may not be used as a
towing vehicle, at least in Germany. Check out
the applicable regulations in your own country.
– A bicycle trailer may never be clamped to frame
tubing or components (seat post, rack, etc.)
– The law forbids children under the age of 16
from riding a bicycle towing a trailer.
Please note that the application area
changes, or is reduced to category 2 for
Goroc X models if they are used to tow a
bicycle trailer (see Chapter 8.4 Applicati-
on area).
Only ever use the trailer manufacturer’s
original system. The coupling system
should be mounted and checked by your
FLYER specialist dealer. The FLYER
specialist dealer will instruct you in how
to handle the trailer combination as well
as how it works. Pay attention to the tips
in the following chapters on learning how
to handle your bicycle before taking it
outforyour rstride,and beforeevery
ride, and remember that towing a trailer
leads to greater wear and tear. Have
your FLYER regularly checked by your
specialist dealer.
Observe any applicable national laws. In
Germany, bicycle trailers are not permit-
ted on S-pedelecs with assistance up to
45 km/h. This is allowed in Switzerland,
but remember that the bicycle trailer
must be approved by the manufacturer
for operation up to 45 km/h.
Regardless of any statutory obligation,
we recommend that children wear a hel-
met. Fit an at least 1.5 m high, exible
pole with a brightly-colored ag to your
child trailer. Please note that children who
weigh more than 22 kg may not be trans-
ported in child trailers.
The safe transport of children is the
responsibility of the cyclist. FLYER AG
cannot be held liable in connection with
the transport of children and the resul-
ting risks.
21.1.1 Beforeyourrsttripwiththeapproved
bicycletrailer
Bike trailers will signicantly extend the overall
lengthofyourFLYER.Practicesettingo󰀨,braking,
riding around corners and on hills in a safe
place
with an empty trailer. Then load the trailer with
things that are of the same weight as your child-
ren. Unhook the loaded trailer from the coupling
to the FLYER and hold it in your hand at the same
height as the connection point. You should increa-
se the pressure in the rear wheel if you feel its
weight pressing down on your hand. However, the
tongueloadshouldnotexceedthegureshown
on the FLYER or in the trailer’s instructions, other-
wise have this checked by your specialist dealer.
Familiarize yourself with the longer braking dis-
tance and altered braking behavior during a short
trip with the loaded trailer. Always use both brakes
when braking to distribute the loads as well as the
heat generated over both the wheel sets and the
overall FLYER. If only the front brake is used, this
can lead to greater stress on several parts on the
towing vehicle, and thus shorten their lifetime.
21.1.2 Beforeeverytripwiththebicycletrailer
Check that the children are buckled in
safely and are wearing a helmet before
every trip, or that the item being trans-
ported is in the middle of the trailer and
rmly secured. Check the secure t of
the coupling and that the safety coupling
has engaged correctly. Make sure that
the vehicle’s permissible total weight
has not been exceeded. You have to
take the trailer and load into account
here. Permissible total weight:
(FLYER + rider + luggage + trailer + chil-
dren/load)
