Tilting hitch-mounted bike rack - 2 bikes
Description
The Buds Bike Rack Original 2 attaches to the towbar and holds 2 bikes. Its tilting system makes it easy to handle on a daily basis.
Versatile, it accepts road bikes, gravel bikes and MTB as well as electric models, provided that the maximum permitted loads are respected. Its high-end manufacturing prioritizes three qualities: robustness, speed of installation, and ease of use.
The tilting mechanism allows access to the trunk without having to remove the already loaded bikes. A real advantage for weekend getaways, holiday trips, or frequent outings. For added security, a double locking system ensures everything is secure: the bike rack remains attached to the towbar, and the bikes stay fixed to the platform.
Designed for ISO 50 mm standard hitches, this model ensures stable and reliable support for all types of bicycles, including electric bicycles up to a limit of 20 kg per bicycle.

Instructions for use
Before each trip, check that the bike rack is correctly attached to the towbar and that all fastening points are securely locked. Also, make sure that the bikes are properly secured on the platform before setting off.
Always respect the maximum permissible load , both for the bike rack and for the towbar and the vehicle. When transporting heavy bikes or electric bikes, it is recommended to remove the removable batteries if possible.
Before setting off, check that the rear lights and signals are working properly. If your model is equipped with a tilting system, use it only according to the manufacturer's recommendations to maintain safe access to the trunk.
To prolong the product's lifespan, regularly clean contact areas, locking mechanisms, and fasteners. For extended periods of storage, the use of an additional lock may be recommended.
