Frame Frame shapes vary according to the type and function of the pedelec. Thanks to the evolu- tion in materials and construction techniques, it is nowadays possible to produce all shapes of frames safely so they perform stably during rid- ing. So despite a low step-through, you can still be sure that your pedelec is always safe on the roads, even with luggage on board. If your e-bike is stolen, it can be identified using its frame number. Please always note down the full number in the correct order. If you do not have the number it will be impossible to make a unique identification. In the docu- mentation you received from the retailer when you purchased your pedelec, there is also a section where the frame number is entered. The frame number can also be en- graved on various parts of the frame. It is often located on the seat tube, on the drop- outs or on the bottom bracket shell.

Check whether the manufacturer provides a maximum permitted weight and a maximum permitted speed. If so, these values must be adhered to. Children under 16 are not legally permit- ted to ride a bike with a trailer in Germany. Full suspension pedelecs are not suitable for use with trailers and child bike trailers! The bearings and attachments are not designed to withstand this sort of force. This could result in wear and damage with serious consequences.

Under no circumstances should you ride with a bent or broken frame. Never attempt to repair dam- aged parts yourself. Otherwise, there is a danger of accidents. Defective parts must be replaced by a specialist/Fischer custom- er service technician. Please only ride your pedelec again when the parts affected have been replaced. Faults on the frame or other parts can cause accidents. If your pedelec does not ride in a straight line without any problems, this can be due to a bent frame or fork. Please contact us on our service hot- line to have the frame and fork inspected and wheel tracking corrected, if necessary.
