Overview
This European Standard specifies safety requirements and test methods for two track cycle trailers (that is, with one or two wheels) and their connecting devices. These cycle trailers are intended for the conveyance of cargo loads or up to two passive child passengers (that is, not pedalling), both of whom are capable of sitting unaided and neither of whom weighs more than 22 kg. The maximum permitted weight of such a cycle trailer, including cargo and/or passenger(s), does not exceed 60 kg. This standard is not applicable to trailer cycles (one or two-track trailer for the transportation of one or two pedalling passengers, usually children, with device for connection behind cycle) and for type L trailers for professional use or with a single wheel (single track trailer) according to Table 1. The responsible German committee for this standard is Working Committee NA 112-06-02 AA "Fahrrad-Zubehör" ("Accessories for bicycles") at DIN Standards Committee Sports Equipment (NASport).
