BUMPY RHODES

January 27th, 2011

A rhodegear bikerack can secure your mountain bike in the back of our car or a SUV. It secures at least four bikes comfortably and fit 1.5 and 2.5 inches out of the box and it tilts for easy access to the rear of the vehicle. The anti-sway brake prevents the contact between the bikes and is constructed in solid steel. An affordable and a safe solution to carry up to four bikes on your vehicle hitch.

There is a yellow color hub to adjust your shuttle rack, rotate the hub as to loosen the frame pieces, the larger of the two adjustable pieces known as the lower frame. Place the lower frame under the back of the wind shield of your vehicle and rest the lower frame against the back of your trunk. Avoid placing the top frame on your rear windshield. The top frame is positioned onto a solid metallic section of your vehicle. The shuttle rack has to be kept in place while tightening the frame pieces to fit your vehicle. Push down on hub the adjuster levers to lock the framing pieces in place. The upper hooks are attached around the top edge of your trunk or hatch, adjust the length of the straps to allow the shuttle rack to

hang in place. Fasten the lower hooks around the bottom edge of your trunk or hatch. Tighten the straps to secure the shuttle bike rack to the back of your vehicle. Lower the leavers to secure the position of the support of the arms. Place the metallic frame of your mountain bike onto the support arm and tighten the security straps to fasten your mountain bike to the shuttle rack, but don’t forget to cover your mountain bike pedals to prevent it damaging your vehicle.
