Riding a bicycle at night is more dangerous than riding during the day. Due to the natural reduction in visibility, it can
be very difficult for motorists and pedestrians to see a cyclist. Therefore, children should never ride at dawn, at dusk
or at night. Adults should not ride at dawn, at dusk or at night unless it is necessary.
WARNING: Reflectors are not a substitute for required lights. Riding at dawn, dusk, night time, or at other times of
poor visibility, without an adequate bicycle lighting system and without reflectors is dangerous and may result in
serious injury. It is important that if you need to ride in scenarios that present reduced visibility, that you observe
the local laws around illumination of yourself and your bicycle, whilst riding is said conditions.
Bicycle reflectors are designed to pick up and reflect streetlights and car lights in a way that may help you to be seen
and recognised as a moving cyclist...
CAUTION: Check reflectors and their mounting brackets regularly to make sure that they are clean, straight,
unbroken and securely mounted.
Whilst riding at dawn, dusk or at night time:
Ride slowly.
Avoid dark areas and areas of heavy or fast-moving traffic.
Avoid road hazards.
If possible, ride on familiar routes.
Observe local laws and regulations for the correct illumination of you 'the rider' and 'your bicycle'.
SECTION THREE:
CAUTION: Make sure the bike fits. A bike that's too big or too small is harder to control and can be uncomfortable to
ride.
Pedals:
Before you start, you need to have mounted the pedals and the handlebar.
Stand over height:
Stand over height is the basic element of correct bike fit (see fig. 2). It is the distance from the ground to the top of
the bicycle's frame (top tube – see fig. 1), at the point where your crotch would be if you were straddling the bike,
standing halfway between the saddle and the handlebars (see fig 2). To check for correct stand over height, straddle
the bike while wearing the kind of shoes in which you'll be riding, and then bounce vigorously on your heels. If your
crotch touches the frame, the bicycle is too big for you.
For this electric bicycle which is tailored for both paved and light unpaved surfaces, you should give yourself a
minimum of seven and a half centimetres of stand over height clearance.
