The Tout Terrain Expedition Rack II (stainless steel) and the Trekking Rack can be loaded with a maximum payload of 40 kg.

We use butted tubes for our frames, which means that the wall thickness is designed to withstand the stresses of riding with luggage and varies depending on the load. The wall thickness is very thin at the point where a child seat is usually clamped to the seat tube. This means that the tube can be deformed when the seat is mounted. We therefore cannot approve the use of a child seat on our bikes. However, you can mount a child seat on the luggage rack of our bikes where the luggage rack is part of the frame. Please refer to the manufacturer's operating instructions for attached luggage racks. Some manufacturers exclude child seat mounting.

You can get replacement derailleur hanger brackets from your Tout Terrain dealer. This overview will help you identify the derailleur hanger bracket on your bike.

Depending on the model, the frame number can be found in different places on the frame for design reasons. This overview will help you find it quickly.

Your bike was powder coated in three layers in our manufactory. The second layer determines the color tone, and the top coat ensures a matte or glossy finish.

Since we do not work with liquid paints, this paint is unfortunately not available for purchase in an identical color tone. A paint shop may be able to help. Some of them are able to determine the color and mix a small amount for you. The powder coating can also be touched up with a wet paint, which you can purchase there.

However, as a preventive measure, we recommend covering the frame with protective film in areas subject to wear and tear. This is available from your Tout Terrain dealer or in motorcycle supply stores. Motorcycle protective film is often slightly more robust and available in sheets that can be cut to size. When cutting, please make sure to round the corners and moisten the frame well. This will make it easier to apply the protective film without bubbles.

Yes, you can use our refresh service through your dealer. We will give the dismantled frame and fork a new powder coating in the colors from our configurator. Minor repairs are also possible. If you are interested, you can ask your dealer for the price and delivery time.

To avoid damaging the carbon fork, make sure that your mount/lowrider only touches the fork directly at the screw-on points. Some mounts/lowriders come with special inserts for mounting on carbon forks. Your Tout Terrain dealer will be happy to help you with this.

With some brakes, the sensor piston in the brake lever may close the opening to the reservoir when the lever is in a certain position. It may therefore be necessary to move the lever to a different position (see lever reach adjustment).

The lever width can be adjusted using a sufficiently long SW2 Allen key (see here). Please proceed with caution so as not to damage the hexagon socket when you reach the end of the adjustment range.

The holes in the bottom bracket shell are designed to provide support for routing the brake line. The brake line can be pulled to the lower edge of the bottom bracket using a cable tie to allow the bottom bracket to be inserted. This also allows a connecting sleeve with an outer diameter of 37 mm for 30 mm shafts to be used, as is the case in series production. Once the brake line has been secured, care should be taken not to pull on it to avoid kinks.

We generally use stainless screws where screws are part of the frame or fork. If a component manufacturer supplies screws, we use them, as the manufacturer has carried out all the necessary safety tests with these screws.

We recommend having your bike checked by your dealer at least once a year. Many dealers offer an initial inspection. You should definitely take advantage of this, as screws can loosen due to settling, especially in the beginning. You will also find important information on care and maintenance in the Quick Start Guide.

You can obtain spare parts from your Tout Terrain dealer.

To connect a coupling, you need a thru axle with coupling from your trailer manufacturer. The original thru axle has a length of 161 mm (without head) and the thread has dimensions of M12x1.5 mm.

Your bike is equipped with a 5 mm quick-release axle. Many trailer manufacturers offer suitable couplings for quick-release axles. Alternatively, you can install a Weber EP-coupling. However, the drawbar must be modified in order to use the coupling.

To use the BackRoller 2.1 on the Ex-Rails, a small adjustment to the hook is necessary: at first glance, the rail in which the hook can be adjusted resembles a “smiling mouth.” The rail is secured with two screws. If you loosen these screws and turn the rail around (“crying mouth”), the hook will fit perfectly on the Ex-Rails.

The thru axle of your bike is inserted from the right, which is unusual. This is necessary for technical reasons due to the frame divider for the belt on your bike. You have the following connection options:

- At www.trailer-components.de, you will find thru axles that are compatible with your bike.

- Connection via a Weber EP coupling on the kickstand mount. However, the drawbar must be modified in order to use the coupling.
