The Sportrex was designed as a bicycle trailer and comes with an additional buggy and walker
function. For , use a tow bar with coupler to connect the trailer to a suitable towing
vehicle (bicycle or motorised pedelec with a maximum speed of 25 km/h). With the buggy wheel
attached, the Sportrex can be used as a child carrier in . In you can use
it when walking.
The Sportrex is available as a one-seater (Sportrex1) or as a two-seater (Sportrex2) and should be
used exclusively for the private transportation for one or two children on paved routes. You can
also carry baggage in the compartments intended for that purpose, provided that you observe the
permissible weight limits and stow the baggage securely so that the load is evenly distributed.
During the journey, each child must be secured in the seat by a safety harness. If you are carrying
only one child in the two-seater, you must alter the harness arrangement as per the instructions in

The way in which the bicycle moves changes significantly when it is pulling a trailer, and this is
particularly noticeable when braking and cornering. Withregard to this, pay attention to the following:
Practice cycling with the trailer before going out onto the road.
Do not carry children until you have familiarised yourself with the different riding behaviour on
suitable terrain.
Think of the children’s safety whenever you ride. Always adapt your way of riding and your
speed to local conditions, and never forget that you are towing a trailer.
The two wheels of the Sportrex run outside the familiar cycling lane. On all routes, particularly
when there are obstacles and potholes, remember that you will always need 3 suitable lanes
for safe riding.
The Sportrex1 is 72 cm and the Sportrex2 is 82 cm wide. Maintain a sufficient distance from
obstacles and avoid routes that are too narrow. Always negotiate narrow points and bends
slowly.
Combined, the bicycle and trailer are at least 2.5 m long in total. Negotiate curves with wider
radii than usual and bear in mind the additional lane required for the inner wheel of the
Sportrex.
When fully loaded, the Sportrex1 weighs up to 50 kg and the Sportrex2 weighs up to 60 kg that
the bicycle must pull, brake and keep on track in addition to its own weight and that of the
rider:
–Jerky pulling and braking puts high loads on the coupler and tow bar, and thereby increases
wear.
–All stopping distances are much longer when braking, and the stress on the brake linings
is correspondingly greater. The stopping distance is further increased on wet surfaces and
downhill slopes.
–During braking, especially on bends, the trailer can swing out or push the bicycle’s rear
wheel to the side and reduce its traction.
–High centrifugal force on bends can result in the trailer tipping over.
Do not exceed the maximum permitted speed of 25 km/h and avoid riding at an angle.
Negotiate bends no faster than at walking pace (max. 7 km/h) in order to prevent excessive
centrifugal forces.
Always ride defensively and with foresight.
Brake in good time before reaching bends, junctions, obstacles etc.
Always negotiate curbs and uneven surfaces slowly. Keep away from steps, escalators and
very steep stretches.

Sportrex 2018 Subject to change. 12|2017 –
You do not have to remove the tow bar completely. Simply place the tow bar into the
tow bar mount from behind to stow it under the cabin floor, see „Insert tow bar“ on
page21.
Make sure that your bicycle is suitable for towing a bicycle trailer, see „Performance
limits“ on page4. Since it may in some cases be necessary to change the rear wheel
axle, it is best to consult your specialist dealer or the bicycle manufacturer in order to
do this.
Secure the bicycle to prevent it from toppling over, and make sure that the rear wheel
cannot drop out of the axle mount after the screw connection has been undone. Use for
example an assembly stand, or turn the bicycle upside down so that you can place it on
its saddle and handlebars.
In the as-delivered state, the supplied coupler is connected to the tow bar:
fUndo the cotter pin fastening and remove the coupler.
fThen insert the retaining cotter pin onto the tow bar
coupler pocket.
fPrepare the bicycle for mounting the coupler by
undoing the screw connection of the rear wheel axle:
–Quick-release axle: Open the bracket of the quick-release axle and unscrew the cap nut on
the other side of the rear wheel axle.
–Full axle: Unscrew the nut on the left side of the rear wheel axle.
fMount the coupler on the rear wheel axle:
–Place the large hole of the coupler onto the left side
of the rear wheel axle so that the coupler is facing
outwards.
–Screw on the dedicated nut and tighten it slightly.
–Align the rear wheel so that it can turn freely.
–Align the coupler so that it faces horizontally to the rear.
fTighten the connection firmly in order to secure the rear wheel:
–Quick-release axle: Tighten the cap nut until you can close the clamp with a certain amount
of pressure.
–Full axle: Tighten the nut with a spanner. Always pay attention to the bicycle manufacturer’s
notes about the tightening torque.
18 – 12|2017 – Subject to change. Sportrex 2018
The axle nut must be tightened in order to assure sufficient clamping force. Therefore,
observe the assembly instructions for the hub and the manufacturer’s torque
specifications when tightening the axle nut.
Due to the construction of the coupler, slight wear and tear in the form of scratches can
occur at the connection between bicycle frame and coupler. This is not a reason for a
complaint.
Do not use a washer or similar at the connection between the bicycle frame and coupler
because this could negatively affect the stability of the connection.
The provided universal coupler is suitable for mounting on the most rear-wheel models.
If it does not fit your bicycle, find a suitable adapter and special couplers in our manuals
on the following website: www.qeridoo.de/kupplungsleitfaden
Do not use a tool which was previously in contact with conventional steel.
Smallest steel particles could be transferred that could lead to contact corrosion.
In trailer mode, a certified rear light must be used during poor visibility or darkness in accordance
with the Road Traffic Licensing Requirements.
fMove the push handle to the lowest position.
fMount the rear light below the left joint of the push
handle.
Follow the attached manufacturer's information for the work of the rear light.
