Three possible height settings at 6-inch increments. Three different usable pin spacings to help avoid obstacles on trike frames. Uses ball bungee to secure rear tire.
Use this with a 2-inch receiver hitch. A 200 pound tongue load rated hitch is not strong enough for this carrier. Use of any other mounting could result in damage to vehicle and equipment.
Product Notes:
- Rack weighs 30 pounds.
- The ingenious "Alpaca Cinch Straps" provide secure mounting in many non-standard frame tube shapes and styles.
- A 1 1/4" hitch version of this rack can be special ordered by calling 800-233-4340. (Because of leverage, the load needs to be limited to 100 pounds with the 1 1/4" receiver hitches.)
- Warning: Use this carrier with receiver hitches bolted directly to the frame of the vehicle or to a bumper or hitch with a 300 pound or higher tongue load rating.
- Stock version does not work with HP Velotechnik Scorpion full suspension trikes, as the pin spacing interferes with the stabilizer bar on the trike. Alpaca will have a special version of this rack available for HP Velotechnik Scorpion full suspension trikes.
