ROAD BIKE | OWNER’S MANUAL 2021

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.
WARNING
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!
Do not buy a carrier on which the SCOTT road bike has to be mounted up-
side down, i.e. with the handlebars and saddle fixed face down to the carrier.
This way of fastening the bicycle exposes handlebars, stem, saddle and seat
post to extreme stress during transport. Do not opt for a carrier system with
crank arm fit. Risk of breakage!
