- Gravel bikers unnoticed endanger numerous protected or useful animals that use paths and trails as habitats or migration routes.
- Particularly affected are slow-reacting or sun-loving species such as grass snakes, shrews, alpine newts, grass frogs and sand lizards.
- Many of these animals live to a very old age and are ecologically important, but their lives often end under bicycle tyres on popular nature trails.

- Crivit XL (up to € 20): high volume, favourable price, but inaccurate and wobbly, only suitable for everyday bikes and occasional users
