Where to Add Lights for Extra Safety

To Disassemble

When not in use, remove Storm Shield from the bike and slide each Roof Support Pole out from the center socket in the roof.

To Store

Place the front panel over the rear one to form a flat package. Take care to store all parts together to prevent loss. Please do not bend or twist the fiberglass poles that support the front and rear panels. This will cause damage to the poles and cause them to break. The Roof Support Poles are not toys and are dangerous if swung around.

Carrying Rear Passengers

In order to safely transport rear passengers, please check the following points and ensure your bike is equipped with the proper accessories.

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.

Check Max Gross Vehicle Weight Limits
Please follow and check your bike’s manual for information about maximum gross vehicle weight. (Maximum gross vehicle weight is the total weight of the bike, rider, passenger, accessories, and cargo.) Most riders can comfortably carry 80% of their weight. You should determine if you are comfortable carrying that much weight.

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 Proper Equipment
The bike needs to have the following accessories installed in order to safely transport rear passenger(s).

  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 pegs on both sides of the bike
  4. Foot and leg protection. Something to prevent feet and legs from getting caught in the spinning wheel

The illustrations above show a mix of suggested gear to safely carry passengers. Your combination of passenger accessories may differ depending on your needs. To learn more about to safely carry passengers on your bike, visit ternbicycles.com/support.

Follow Installation Procedures
Check to ensure accessories have been correctly installed and securely fastened before riding.

Use Accessories Properly
Our seating accessories are strictly for sitting. Using them to lift the bike will damage the frame and accessory. Our rear handhold accessories are strictly for passengers to hold. Adding substantial weight on the top of or using the rear passenger handlebars to lift the bike will cause undue stress on the seat post and handlebar. Our foot support accessories are strictly for passenger use when SEATED. Standing on them is unsafe and may permanently damage the frame.
