Safe and secure
Moreover, bike wheels can be easily secured with the adjustable pump buckles at the wheel holders. These are extra long, allowing wheels with a maximum width of 3" to be attached. Finally, the bikes can be locked to the bike carrier, and the tow bar of the carrier can be locked to the car. This allows you to leave the bikes on the car without worrying about their safety.

Tilt function
When the bikes are securely attached to the carrier, it is easy to access the trunk thanks to the tilt function. By pressing the foot pedal with your foot, the bike carrier tilts forward, creating space to load items in and out of the trunk. When mounting the bike carrier on the tow bar, it can be easily adjusted thanks to the stability on the tow bar. After adjustment, the carrier is locked with a handle. After use, the bike carrier can be easily folded and transported thanks to the ergonomic handles.
