To conclude this introduction, a few things important for any cyclist. In traffic, always ride with full attention, so that you do not
endanger yourself or others. Observe traffic laws and regulations, so that you don’t attract the anger of other road users. Respect
nature when you’re riding in the countryside. Ride only on marked and surfaced roads. Observe any laws and regulations for the
use of bicycles off-road including regional or local bye-laws. Never ride without a helmet, and always ride in suitable cycling
clothing.
We hope you have great fun on your new Frog!

PAGE 4, Before the first ride
1. Load capacity
The Frog is designed for a maximum rider height of around 1.95m (6’ 5“) depending on leg length and for a maximum
loading (rider weight and luggage weight) of 100kg (225lbs).
2. Use the Frog only on streets and surfaced roads
We can take no responsibility for the consequences of inappropriate use, assembly errors, accidents, racing, jumping or
similar activities.
3. Are you confident using the brakes?
Check whether the front brake is operated with the lever you usually use. If this isn’t the case, you should get used to the
arrangement thoroughly, as an unintended application of the front brake can lead to a fall. Alternatively, let your dealer re-
assemble the brakes the other way round. Modern brakes are much more powerful than old ones! Take care! In any case,
before you take to the streets, test your brakes and get familiar with them away from the traffic! You can read more about
the braking system on pages 21-23.
4. Are you confident that you know how to change gear, and how the gears work?
Ensure that youre familiar with the gears somewhere where there’s no traffic. You can read more about gearing systems on
pages 24-25.
5. Are saddle and handlebars correctly adjusted?
The saddle should be adjusted so that with the pedal in its lowest position, you can just reach it with your heel. Check that
you can stay in the saddle and still reach the ground with your tiptoes. Your dealer will be able to help you if you’re not
happy with your saddle position. You can read more about seating position on pages 11-15.
