SQlab M-D Line Saddle Exchange on Pedelec25
E-bikes and pedelecs with a CE mark and a pedal assistance of up to 25 km/h fall under the Machinery Directive, so components of these
bicycles may not be exchanged or modified without further ado. In order to provide clarity, the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV) and
Verbund Service und Fahrrad (VSF) associations, in cooperation with the Zedler Institute and the Bundesinnungsverband Fahrrad (BIV),
have published a joint guide to component replacement on e-bikes / pedelecs 25.
What bicycle dealers and workshops are allowed to change on these vehicles, and for which components they must obtain the approval
of the vehicle manufacturer or system provider, is clearly regulated by the guide and can thus be classified as a recommended course
of action.
An exchange of SQlab M-D Line saddles with the eBike Ready designation is possible on the basis of the recommended action "Guideline
for component exchange on CE-marked e-bikes/pedelecs with pedal assistance up to 25 km/h" of the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV)
and Verbund Service und Fahrrad (VSF) associations in cooperation with the Zedler Institute and the Bundesinnungsverband Fahrrad
(BIV), if the offset to the rear of the series/original application area is not greater than 20 mm. In this case, a change in load distribution
outside the intended adjustment range may lead to critical steering characteristics. The length of the saddle struts on the saddle frame
and the saddle shape also play a role here.
On our website www.sq-lab.com/service/downloads/ you will find a document called eBike Ready in the service area under
Downloads. There you will find detailed information on component replacement on Pedelec25, as well as the guidelines for component
replacement from the Zweirad-Industrie-Verband (ZIV), Verbund Service und Fahrrad (VSF), the Zedler Institute and the
Bundesinnungsverband Fahrrad (BIV).
SQlab M-D Line Saddle Exchange on Pedelec45
A component exchange of SQlab M-D Line saddles with the eBike Ready designation on fast pedelecs, so-called S-pedelecs, which are
classified as motor vehicles and are subject to EU Directive 2002/24/E6 or EU Regulation no. 168/2013, is possible on the basis of the
guideline "Bauteiletausch an S-Pedelecs - schnelle E-Bikes / Pedelecs mit einer Tretunterstützung bis 45 km/h" of the
