The LIKEtoBIKE is not a means of transport and may not be used
on public roads! The permissible total weight is 50 kg. Only allow
your child to ride in protected areas (such as a pedestrian zone,
playground, sidewalk, etc.). When riding on public roads, please
observe the legal requirements, such as: Lighting and reectors.
The LIKEtoBIKE is not designed for jumps and similar bike stunts.
The bicycle must be set up ready for use by a knowledgeable adult
as described in this manual. The saddle height (adjustable saddle
height 535mm - 640 mm measured from the ground to the top
edge of the saddle) must be adapted to the size of the child. Put
a pedal in the lowest position. If the child is sitting on the saddle,
it must be able to touch this pedal with his heel outstretched leg.
Make sure that your hips stay level and do not tip over to the side!
In this setting, it must at least touch the ground with the tip of the
foot! The minimum insertion depth of the seat post must not be
undershot!
The child has to wear sturdy shoes and a bicycle helmet! It is also
useful to wear cycling gloves.
Explain to your child how to handle the LIKEtoBIKE correctly, point
out possible dangers!
Explain to the child how to use the brakes! The left brake grille is
assigned to the front brake, the right to the rear brake! For bicycles
with coaster brake, the front brake is operated with the right brake
handle! Sudden excessive braking should be avoided as it may
cause the wheels to slip and fall.
The braking distance is extended on wet roads. Continuous bra-
king with the coaster brake on downhill slopes must be avoided
(danger of overheating the brake hub).
The child may only drive under adult supervision!
No riding on sloping terrain, stairs, etc.!
Regularly check the tightness of the wheel nuts!
Regularly check the tire pressure! The permissible air pressure is
indicated on the tire.
Regularly check the functionality of the brakes! Worn brake pads
must be replaced immediately! Brake pads for aluminum rims
must be used! We strongly recommend that this work be carried
out by a professional bike mechanic.
Part of the rim brake system is also the rim! The wear is indicated
by the indicator groove in the rim rim. If this is no longer complete-
ly visible, the wheel must be replaced immediately!
Regularly check the chain tension, it may be moved in the middle a
maximum of 15 mm up and down. After loosening the wheel nuts,
the chain can be tensioned by pulling the rear wheel to the rear,
then retighten the wheel nuts (30 Nm).
User information / Safety
Please regularly check the frame and fork for possible damage.
The brake and external drivetrains should also be checked for
kinks or other damage.
Only use original spare parts for repairs! Please contact your dea-
ler!
Accessories, such as suitable mudguards, are available from your
dealer.
We recommend that the LIKEtoBIKE be inspected annually by a
professional bike mechanic.
WARNING
As is the case with all mechanical components, the bicycle is ex-
posed to wear and high stresses. Dierent materials and com-
ponents can react in dierent ways to wear or fatigue due to the
stresses. If the design life of a component is exceeded, the com-
ponent may suddenly fail and possibly cause injury to the rider.
Any type of cracking, scratching or color change in highly stressed
areas is an indication that the life of the component has been
reached and that the part should be replaced.
If a defect is detected on the LIKEtoBIKE, do not let the child
ride!
