10 Individual components
10.1 Double Cable Steering System
The Carqon has a unique steering system: the Double-Cable Steering System incorporates a high-quality
technique taken from the automotive industry. Instead of a conventional steering rod, strong double steering
cables are used. This allows for more direct, smoother steering and enables a wider steering angle. There are
two sets of cables for added safety, the second cable is added as a backup.
It is important that both sides have the same tension
●
If you prefere a more stiff rotational movement, please increase the tension.
●
If you prefer a more smooth rotational movement, please decrease the tension
●
Make sure the two vertical mounts are always strongly mounted
●
The replace the cables, it is necessary to remove the flatbed panels. Please contact your Carqon dealer to
execute this service. We advise you to replace the set of cables every two years.
Warning: Contact a Carqon dealer if you need to adjust the double cable system or if
one of the cable breaks.
10.2 Optional luggage carrier
If the optional luggage carrier is improperly assembled, this can cause damage to bike components.
The luggage carrier is intended for transporting children
up to 25kg and lighter luggage whilst travelling. Do not
modify the luggage carrier, otherwise the stability or
functionality of the cargo bike may be compromised.

Bike components can be damaged by overloading the
luggage carrier. The maximum load of the luggage carrier
and the maximum total weight of the cargo bike must be
taken into account when loading it. Only load the luggage carrier with a maximum of 25 kg/55 lb.
10.3 Luggage
When loading your flatbed, ensure that reflectors or lights continue to be visible.
●
When riding, take the additional weight into account and the unaccustomed handling, where
●
appropriate.
You may need to consider that the braking distance will be longer and the riding style may be different,
●
since the balance of the bike might be changed.
