Safety Information:
WARNING!
The Globe pannier adapter is intended for use on Globe bicycles only. Panniers
and racks, especially when loaded, affect the handling of your bicycle by
altering the center of gravity, weight, and balance. When installing and
loading the Globe pannier adapter, ensure the accessories are evenly spaced
and loaded. Before your first ride, you should practice riding in a controlled
environment with the pannier adapter fully loaded. Before each ride, ensure
the pannier adapters are securely installed and any accessory is securely
attached. Loose components or cargo could cause you to lose control and fall.
