Clothing:
On the Kettwiesel, the rider should wear clothing that is close-fitting
enough to make it impossible for garments to get caught in the wheel or
the drive. Watch out also for hanging string/ tying cords for example
from Jackets or scarves.
Health:
When you ride the Lepus, different muscle groups are used compared to
riding a standard bicycle. Take into account, therefore, that you will need
a short period of time to adjust.
You should avoid cycling too hard. A higher pedalling frequency (above
70 rpm) is better for your joints.

Carrying luggage:

If you're planning a long journey with the Lepus and intend taking a lot of
luggage, we recommend the use of a front carrier with panniers.
This way the weight distribution is balanced and the riding characteristics
are improved.
Front carriers can be fitted to the fork via adaptors. They are available in
bike shops. Standard front carriers can be fitted as used on two wheel
bicycles.

Tire pressure:

Ideally the tire pressure should be checked before commencing any
journey.
To minimise rolling resistance, it is recommended that the pressure
indicated on the sidewall of the tire be adhered to.
