LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
When you ride your bike on the road, it must comply with trac laws and guidelines.
These will vary from country to country. In general, there are minimum standards for brakes,
reflectors and lighting systems, as well as usually a general responsibility to ensure that
your vehicle is in roadworthy and in safe condition. You also have a duty to ride in a safe and
responsible manner. If you ride your Birdy in trac, be sure to observe all relevant laws and
regulations. Please ask your local transportation administration for current information.
BRAKES
In most countries, including Germany and the UK, two independent brakes are
required. Do not ride with only one functioning brake!
LIGHTS
Bicycle lighting systems need to comply with the relevant national standards.
