DANGER!
G
Make sure the child always wears a properly fitting cycling helmet and well
visible, i.e. bright, clothing. It is also advisable to wear reflector stripes to
increase visibility.
CAUTION!
A
Make sure the cycling helmet complies with the EN 1078 test standard.
CAUTION!
A
Children can be vain. Therefore, buy a cycling helmet that the child feels
happy with. Take your child with you to make sure you buy one which is
comfortable and fits correctly. This will increase the chances that the helmet
is actually worn, which one day might be a life-saver. Make sure the helmet is
always fastened!
CAUTION!
A
When you buy the helmet, have yourself explained how to adjust the straps
of the helmet to the head. Only a properly fitted helmet can provide full
protection in case of an accident!
ADJUSTMENT
Adjusting the SCOTT kids’ bike to the bodily proportions of a child is even more
important than in the case of an adult. When determining the saddle height you
should find a compromise that allows the child to reach the ground with both
feet (f) when sitting in the saddle while at the same time giving them enough
space for pedalling. A safe standing (when stopping) takes absolute priority!
Handlebars that are too far away from the saddle or adjusted in a too high/low
position can also lead to the fact that the child is less confident and relaxed dur-
ing cycling. Normally, children’s bicycles allow adjustments of the saddle tilt and
sometimes the tilt of the handlebars can be adjusted, as well.
It is essential that your child has good control of his/her SCOTT kids’ bike before
riding on public roads. As a first step in this direction we recommend that you
give your child a scooter or a SCOTT walker (a), so that he/she can train his/her
sense of balance.
This being accomplished you will need to make your child familiar with the func-
tioning of the brakes and gears (b) before you let him/her sit on his/her SCOTT
kids’ bike. Find a place away from the road, ideally a backyard or park, where
you can practise braking and shifting gears with your child under your supervi-
sion.
Once your child has progressed to a point where he/she can ride in traffic (c+d),
teach him/her how to cross kerbs and railway tracks, i.e. to cross these obsta-
cles, if possible, at right angle. Your child should also learn to look ahead and
back for any danger before taking this kind of obstacle.
Set a good example when it comes to wearing a cycling helmet (e) and to riding
on cycle lanes. It is also advisable to let your child take part in road safety les-
sons offered at schools or by local clubs and associations.
DANGER!
G
It is important to tell children when they practise braking that in wet condi-
tions the brake performance is less effective and the tyre grip reduced and
that they should therefore ride more slowly and brake more carefully.
DANGER!
G
Take care your child is wearing the helmet while cycling only. For example,
wearing the helmet at a park or playground can be hazardous; the helmet
can get caught on features or obstacles and result in strangulation by helmet
straps.
DANGER!
G
Children should not ride near precipices, staircases or swimming pools as
well as on paths used by automotive mobiles.
