Pendix recommends attachment to available
holes in the frame. The drilling of new holes
can weaken the frame: it is a decision that
must be made by the technician. Pendix can
assume no responsibility for the safety /
duration of new attachments and resultant
possible frame damage.
In the case of a full suspension frame, neit-
her battery nor battery holder may come into
contact with any other parts of the constructi-
on due to suspension movements. Check to
see that sufficient cable length is available
for a correct and safe attachment of the bat-
tery holder.

If your frame has no thread for a bottle holder:
Have your battery holder attached by a me-
chanic / expert. Do not drill holes in very light
/ thin-walled frames and especially frames
made of composite materials (carbon frame)!
Drilling holes in such cases can cause broken
frames, falls and severest injuries.
