Safety and warning instructions
WARNING!
- The tightening torque depends on your bicycle’s manufacturer information. The values for becco adapters are guidelines – the weakest component is always decisive (e.g., dropout or axle thread). Use a calibrated torque wrench whenever possible. The adapter must be screwed onto the axle by at least six full thread turns to ensure secure clamping. After the first rides, you should check the clamping force and retighten if needed. Do not use any tool that has come into contact with ordinary steel – even the smallest steel particles can transfer and cause contact corrosion. Due to the design of the coupler, slight scratches or abrasion marks may occur at the contact point with the bicycle frame. This is technically unavoidable and is not grounds for a complaint.
DANGER!
- Professional assembly of the solid axle adapter is essential for safe trailer operation. Improper attachment can come loose while riding, with potentially serious accident consequences. If you are unsure, have the assembly carried out by a qualified workshop. Compatibility must be checked before assembly. This adapter is not suitable for bicycles with carbon frames, carbon dropouts, or carbon rear frames (risk of breakage!).
