2. The Bicycle Kit
For your Chariot CTS there is a choice of three different bicycle hitch arms with different hitches. Fitting any of the hitch arms
on the base takes no time at all and is the same for all hitch arms.

bicycle kit) – example Cougar1
Safety Recommendation:
All aluminium hitch arms have been tested for safety by the manufacturers. These tests include functional tests as well as
load and fatigue tests. We only use hitch arms which have withstood these tests without any problem.
Because it is difficult to determine the exact life time of a bicycle trailer and to know the actual loads to which the hitch arms
will be subjected during this time, there does remain a risk in theory – and this cannot be excluded with absolute certainty –
that even a hitch arm which has undergone testing could fail, if it is put under extreme load for several years.
To rule out this theoretical risk, we have limited the period of use for all hitch arms to a maximum of 3 years.
Please replace your hitch arm after 3 years at the most and draw attention to this safety recommendation should you sell
the trailer.
