Operator and scope
This website is operated by Driftbicyclegalxy Technik GmbH, Werkstraße 12, 83022 Rosenheim, Germany; Amtsgericht Traunstein, HRB 32874. Questions can be sent to [email protected]. These terms describe the intended use and limits of the site. They do not override mandatory statutory rights.
Technical information, not a commissioned service
The website provides general educational and editorial information about bobsleigh design, construction and testing. Articles, tables and conceptual diagrams are not component-specific engineering advice, dimensioned manufacturing drawings, risk assessments, maintenance instructions or certifications.
Reading the site or sending a message does not create an engineering consultancy relationship. Any professional service would require a separate, explicit agreement defining its scope and responsibilities.
Rules, safety and eligibility
Always consult the applicable sporting rules, event requirements, manufacturer documentation and qualified professionals before taking action. An article may explain a measurement method without establishing that a modification is safe, permitted or beneficial. Equipment eligibility is determined through the relevant sporting authority and inspection process.
Bobsleigh operation and workshop processes involve serious hazards. Nothing here replaces competent supervision, suitable facilities, material safety information or a component-specific safety assessment. No performance improvement, competition result or universal preparation method is promised.
Accuracy and external sources
We aim to distinguish published requirements from methods and interpretation. Rules, standards and external websites can change, and errors may occur. Verify any requirement against its authoritative source and applicable edition before relying on it. Send proposed corrections through the Contact page.
External links provide reference material. A link does not imply endorsement, partnership or control over the external content. The site is not affiliated with the IBSF, national federations, track operators or equipment manufacturers mentioned in the articles.
Use of content
Original site text, diagrams and design are protected by applicable intellectual property law. You may link to the articles and make use permitted by statutory exceptions. Broader republication, commercial redistribution or reuse beyond those permissions requires authorisation from the relevant rights holder. Third-party standards, names, images and marks remain subject to their own rights.
Local brief tool
The contact work-order tool creates a preview in your browser. Copy and download actions do not transmit a message to us. You remain responsible for reviewing the brief, handling the resulting clipboard contents or file securely and deciding whether to send it separately. The tool is not a secure document vault and does not provide an engineering assessment.
Liability and mandatory rights
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so is prohibited by law, including liability for intent, gross negligence, or injury to life, body or health. Mandatory consumer protections remain unaffected. Any other liability is governed by applicable law; no statement here creates a guarantee about technical fitness or uninterrupted availability.
Applicable law and changes
German law applies to the extent legally permitted, without depriving consumers of mandatory protections available under the law of their habitual residence. Statutory jurisdiction rules remain applicable. We may revise the site and these terms prospectively as its content or functions change.
