Tips for even more safety
Roadworthy according to the law does not automatically mean maximum safety.
With the following measures, you can also prevent accidents and serious injuries:
Wear a helmet
A helmet is one of the things that determines whether you get away with a few bruises or suffer serious injuries in the case of an accident. That’s why it is clear to us: never ride without a helmet. But make sure to choose a robust helmet that fits you well. After all, if you feel comfortable when you wear it, you will probably wear it more often. There are also special bicycle helmets for children.
Prefer light-coloured clothing in the dark
If you are riding in poor visibility, light-coloured clothing will increase your visibility. Reflective elements, such as a reflector on your clothes, can help but not replace your bike lights.
Ride carefully
Even the best cycling equipment is of little value if you are on the road like Chuck Norris on a vendetta. Riding calmly and carefully pays off for everyone and increases your “popularity” with other road users. You should keep in mind that an e-bike can be particularly dangerous due to its higher weight and speed.
It also makes sense to have mudguards, a bike stand, a luggage rack and a chain guard. Optimal tyre pressure and tyres with a good grip prevent accidents, especially in autumn and on uneven roads.
