Buzzrack Buzzracer 4 bike platform Rack

BUZZRACER series offer convenient mounting, user-friendly functions and compact storage. The ratchet cradle is the perfect solution to attach the bike frame. It is also a great solution for carbon frames as it does not apply pressure to the carbon tubes. This would be the most economical solution to carry 4 regular bikes (no ebikes) with a tilting function that gives access to the trunk. Assembly: Even though it is not assembled, BUZZRACER 4 is very easy to put together: assemble the wheel support frame to the base using 8 screws, assemble the light support with 2 more screws, install the license plate, slide in the plastic wheel supports, fit the rack to the tow ball with no tools needed and you are ready to go! Fitting to the car: When you first place the BUZZRACER 4on the tow ball it supports itself – you can let go of it and it won’t fall to the ground. You’ll then take the weight again, spin the tightening knob until it’s tight, and lock it. BUZZRACK‘s carriers comply with the very exacting standard XPR-18-904-4 and therefore include an anti-sway tensioner; this has an integrated handle and 2 or 3 turns are usually sufficient. The video below shows the fitting to the car and the installation of bikes. Lighting system: The BUZZRACER 4 comes with a 7 pin lighting system. 7 pin to 13 pin adapter is not included but can be purchased as an option. Tilting: Tilting is easy, and is very well balanced even with a full load. The BUZZRACER 4 sits quite high on the tow ball, and the tilt function is optimised to prevent the lights from hitting the road surface, while still using the weight of the bikes to help bring the bike platform back to the level again in a controlled way. But this geometry doesn’t allow for tall vertical tailgates to be opened – e.g. VW Transporter T5 and T6.
