Follow Your Bike’s Max Gross Vehicle Weight Limits
Check your bike’s user manual and/or QuickStart Guide for
information about maximum gross vehicle weight* and/or cargo
weight** limits. Please do not exceed these weight limits.
* Maximum gross vehicle weight is the total weight of the bike,
riders (the cyclist and any passengers), accessories, and cargo.
** Cargo weight is the total weight of passengers, accessories, and cargo.
Check Local Regulations
It may be illegal to carry passengers on a bike in your area
even if it has been designed or configured to do so. Check
your local regulations before carrying passengers.
Know Your Riding Condition
Both front and rear tires must always remain in contact with the
ground when riding with passengers. No passenger is allowed
when riding on unimproved or unmaintained trails with a natural
surface, even if your bike is designed to handle such terrain.
Follow Installation Procedures
Check to ensure accessories have been correctly
installed and securely fastened before riding.
Wear a Helmet
Rider and rear passenger(s) are strongly
advised to wear an approved helmet.
Do NOT Leave Children Unattended
Do not allow your children to climb onto the bike nor
leave your children unattended on the bike, even if it is on
the kickstand. Wriggling children can upset the balance
of the bike and a fall may result in serious injuries.
Use Accessories Properly
If you’re carrying young children on your bike, please follow the instructions provided by your child seat manufacturer
for compatibility, proper installation, and recommended use to ensure your child’s safety and comfort.
Our seating accessories are strictly for sitting. Using them for other purposes such as
lifting the bike may cause damage to the frame and/or said accessories.
Our rear handhold accessories are intended for passengers to hold onto. Select rear rack-mounted handholds may be
used to briefly lift the bike over small obstacles, but in general please refrain from adding substantial weight on the top
of or using the rear passenger handholds to lift the bike, as this will cause undue stress which may damage the bike.
Our foot support accessories are strictly for passenger use when SEATED. Standing
on them is unsafe and may permanently damage the frame.
1. Seating. Purpose-built rear seating, chosen
according to the passenger’s needs
2. Handhold. Something for the passenger to
hold on to, other than the bike itself
3. Foot support. Fixed platforms or dedicated
foot rests on both sides of the bike
4. Foot and leg protection. Something to
prevent feet and legs from getting caught
in the spinning wheel
5. Double kickstand (optional). Dual-leg
kickstand with a wide stance that keeps
a bike standing firmly on the ground,
providing extra stability when loading and
unloading a young passenger
The illustrations above show a mix of suggested gear to safely carry passengers. Your combination of passenger accessories may differ
