3. Safe Riding Recommendations
1. Please observe traffic regulations, and don’t lend
your bicycle to anyone who is unfamiliar with it.
The bicycle can legally only be used on the road by
a person aged 14 years or over.
2. If you are in a country where wearing a cycle
helmet is not compulsory, we still strongly advise
you to always wear one. If you are unfamiliar
with cycling, we also advise you to attend a cycle
proficiency course prior to using it, or gain advice
from your local SmartMotion dealer. Your eUrban is
not a toy and should be considered a serious mode
of transport.
3. As with all bicycles it is important that you stay
within safe limits. If you feel you are traveling too
quickly for the road conditions you probably are, so
slow down! High speed will increase forces in the
case of an accident and increase the possibility of
injury.
4. Test your brakes prior to using the bike every
time you use it and remember the bike will not stop
as quickly in wet or icy conditions as it would on a
dry road.
5. Check the tyres, rims, pedals, stem, cables,
chain, etc for general condition regularly.
6. A rider is very difficult for motorists and
pedestrians to see at dusk, at night, or at other
times of poor visibility. If you must ride under these
conditions, check and be sure you comply with all
local laws about night riding; follow the rules of the
road. Take the following additional precautions:
make sure that your bicycle is equipped with
correctly positioned and securely mounted
reflectors, wear light-colored, reflective clothing
and or accessories (any reflective device or light
source that moves will help you get the attention
of approaching motorists, pedestrians and other
traffic). Make sure your clothing or anything else
you are carrying on your bicycle doesn’t obstruct
a reflector or light. Ride slowly when conditions
demand you to do so.
