Description Collection only, Used 3 times
Atera's STRADA Sport tilting carriers are designed to take bikes up to 30kg each - which means electric bikes
This 3 bike version is cleverly engineered to weigh only 17.9kg, making it relatively very easy to move around. It fits to all types of tow ball without any adjustment, you just place it on the tow ball and push down the handle - no tools are required. It tilts away from the vehicle so you can access the car boot.
A 4th bike adapter is available. Note that the maximum permitted load for the 3 bike version is 60kg
This superb rack from Atera is relatively compact and light yet the reinforced frame makes it suitable for carrying heavier and electric bikes (up to 30kg). The optional drive-up rail makes the loading particularly comfortable if you have heavy bikes.
It is extremely robust and is made from both steel and aluminium, this gives it the best of both worlds. The steel means the carrier reinforces where it need to be making it suitable for heavier bikes (up to 30kg each) yet the carrier only weighs 17.9kg so it is easily manoeuvrable.
It fits to 'bolt on' or 'swan neck' tow balls without any adjustment; you just place it on the tow ball and push down the handle - no spanners or Allen keys are required.
It tilts away from the vehicle allowing access to the tailgate.
The bike frame holders fit oval and other outsize frames as well as round ones, wrapping a strap right around the frame for safety and security. (This looks like a simple plastic strap, but it is in fact 'sandwiched' around a spring steel core.) With swivel joints at both ends, and a slight curve in the aluminium support rod to increase the opportunities available, Can easily be locked into place using the same key which locks the whole unit to the tow ball.
Weight of carrier: 17.9kg
Maximum payload: 60kg
Approximate dimensions when folded: 1000 x 200 x 720 mm
The wheels are held in place with quick fit polypropylene straps which accommodate tyres up to 2.4" - 2.6" (dependent on rim height). Longer straps are available for tyres up to 4" As a option
The STRADA has five function rear lights so it is fitted with a 13 pin plug for 13 pin continental type electric sockets. If you have a 7 pin socket a Lighting adapter '13 pin' (rack) to 7 pin (car) Is included
