TRANSPORT OF THE SCOTT BIKE
BY CAR
Nearly every car accessory dealer and car company offers carrier systems (e)
that allow the transport of a bike without disassembly.
The usual design involves rails fixed to the roof of the car onto which the bicy-
cles are fixed with clamps gripping the down or the top tubes. This can, howev-
er, result in irreparable damage to the frame. High-end, very thin-walled alumin-
ium or carbon frames are particularly susceptible to such kind of damage. Due
to the material properties of carbon, you may not see a severe damage at first
sight. This can result in an unforeseeable severe accident at a later date. There
are, however, special suitable models available in the car accessory trade.
Rear carriers are becoming more and more popular. Their big advantage over
roof carriers is that you do not have to lift up the bicycle so high to attach it.
Make sure the clamps do not cause any damage to the fork or frame. Risk of
breakage!
Whatever system you opt for, make sure it complies with the relevant safety
standards, e.g. DIN/EN standards of your country (GS symbol).
Read the manual of your bicycle carrier and comply with the maximum load
capacity and recommended or prescribed driving speed. If applicable, comply
with the required supporting load on the trailer hitch.
DANGER!
G
Make sure to remove all parts of your SCOTT bike (tools, saddle bags (f),
tachometers etc.) which may come loose during transport. Risk of accident!
For safety reasons the front wheel stays must have security fastenings. They
prevent the tyre from being blocked by impurities taken up by the front wheel
from the ground. In this case the security fastening frees the stay and hereby
prevents a possible accident. The plug connection can easily be refastened.
DANGER!
G
Damaged mudguards should be replaced in any case. Risk of accident!
TRANSPORTING LUGGAGE
There are only theoretically various ways of carrying luggage on your SCOTT
road bike. Using a bicycle rucksack (a) is a convenient way of transporting lug-
gage on a bike and therefore recommendable.
Your choice will primarily depend on the weight and volume of the luggage and
on the bicycle you want to use. Contact your SCOTT dealer.
DANGER!
g
For SCOTT road and triathlon bikes as well as time trial machines and
cyclo-cross bikes pannier racks (b) are not permitted. Note that SCOTT will
not assume liability for the use of pannier racks. Such a use would render the
warranty null and void.
TAKING CHILDREN WITH YOU
For SCOTT road and triathlon bikes as well as time trial machines and cyc-
lo-cross bikes (kids) trailers (c), child carriers (d) and kids’ tandem bike systems
are not permitted. Note that SCOTT will not assume liability for the use of trail-
ers, child carriers and kids’ tandem bike systems. Such a use would render the
warranty null and void.
Contact your SCOTT dealer.
