What rules must I follow?
Your cycle must have the right equipment (see below for more information).
Where there is a cycle path, you may ride on the cycle path or on the road. Where there is no cycle path, you must ride on the road and keep as far left as you safely can. If specifically prohibited by a sign from riding on the road, you must ride on any cycle path or use an alternative road.
If you are cycling on a shared path, be courteous to pedestrians. Often pedestrians can't hear cyclists approaching, especially from behind or the side. Call out politely or use a bell if you have one.
You can only ride on the footpath if you're delivering newspapers, mail or leaflets.
You may use a bus lane, as long as there isn't a sign forbidding this.
If you're riding with other cyclists, don't ride more than two abreast. Ride in single file when you're passing other vehicles - including parked vehicles, or when you're impeding traffic behind you.
Use a clear arm signal if you intend to turn, reduce your speed or stop.
At intersections, you must follow the same road rules as motor vehicles, or get off your cycle and walk across.
You can only carry a passenger if your cycle has a pillion seat and footrests for that passenger. A container or seat for an infant must protect their legs from the wheels.
You can tow a trailer with your cycle, but you can't tow any other sort of vehicle. Your cycle can't be towed by another vehicle.
If you carry a load it must be secure, must not touch the ground and mustn't extend more than one metre in front of or behind the wheels, or half a metre (50 cm) on either side (from the centre of the cycle).
What are the rules for wearing cycle helmets?
It's compulsory for all cyclists on New Zealand roads to wear cycle helmets. Your cycle helmet must:
meet an approved standard (see below)
be securely fastened.
Check that your helmet is the right size – it should fit snugly on your head with a minimum use of pads. It's not a good idea to buy a child a helmet that they will 'grow into'.
If your cycle helmet gets damaged, replace it with a new one.
Please note that if a police officer stops you and asks to inspect your helmet, you must give it to them.
Riding in the 'hours of darkness'
If you ride during the hours of darkness, you must:
have cycle lights fitted (see below)
switch your cycle lights on
wear reflective material (if you don't have pedal reflectors).
What are the 'hours of darkness'?
Legally, 'hours of darkness' means:
any period of time between half an hour after sunset on one day and half an hour before sunrise on the next day, or
any other time when there isn't sufficient daylight for a person or vehicle to be clearly visible at a distance of 100 metres.
Courtesy on the road
Every time you ride, you have an opportunity to contribute to a cycle friendly culture. It is important to ride with courtesy and respect for all other cyclists and motorists. Make sure you are visible at all times and clearly show your intentions. Thank other road users when you can. For example, let them know you are happy they waited for you by waving, smiling, or giving them a 'thumbs up'. This will make sharing the road easier for everyone.
Equipment for cyclists
Your cycle must have the following equipment.
Brakes
Your cycle must have good brakes on the front and back wheels. (If the cycle was made before 1 January 1988, the law only requires a brake on the back wheel.)
Reflectors
You must have a rear reflector that is visible from a distance of 100 metres when light shines on it (eg a car's headlights).
You may have yellow or amber pedal reflectors on the forward and rearward-facing surfaces of each pedal.
Equipment you need in the hours of darkness
If you want to ride your cycle on the road during the hours of darkness, it must have:
one or two white or amber headlights that can be seen from a distance of 100 metres (one of these headlights may flash).
one or more a red rear-facing light that can be seen from a distance of 100 metres (this may be steady or flashing)
and
pedal retroreflectors on the forward on the forward and rearward facing surfaces of each pedal (or if the bike does not have these the cyclist must be wearing reflective material).
Your responsibilities
It's up to you to:
make sure your cycle is fitted with brakes, lights and reflectors that comply with the law
wear your cycle helmet
follow the road rules.
If you don't, you could get an infringement fine or be taken to court.
Manufacturers' and retailers' responsibilities
Manufacturers and retailers must make sure that any cycle they sell, and its equipment, complies with the law. Standards markings and information supplied by manufacturers can be used to show that a cycle and its equipment comply.
It's an offence to sell a cycle helmet that doesn't meet an approved standard.
Cycle helmet standards
Every cycle helmet must meet an approved standard. Your helmet should have a sticker inside it stating which standard it complies with.
The approved standards stickers are:
ASTM F1447-1994 standard sticker.
Complies with standard ASTM F1447-2006
Australian standard sticker.
New Zealand standard sticker.
Complies with standards AS/NZS 2063:2008, NZS 5439 or AS 2063.2
Snell standard B90 and B95 sticker.
Complies with standard Snell B90 or B95
European standard EN 1078 sticker.
Complies with European standard EN 1078.
The US Consumer Product Safety Commission's bicycle helmet safety standard is also approved.

OMG，这可是意大利的手工顶级品牌啊，晕死。普通架子都在10000元人民币以上的价格，这还是个十年前的架子，根本就没货了啊。再加上配套的东西，唉。。。。。。。。。。这样的东西不具可比性，开价12000NZD，还算是厚道了，如果他不要你赔钱，只要你赔一样的架子，光找，就能找晕人，找到了，也不一定买的了，太贵了。
