BUFFALO Tow Bar Bike Carrier: The Perfect Combination of Design, Quality, and Ease of Use
What makes the BUFFALO stand out? It’s the result of excellent design, top-notch quality, and user-friendly functionality. Here’s why it’s the perfect choice:
Key Features:
No Assembly Required: The carrier is ready to use straight out of the box.
Patented Tow Ball Clamp: Fits all 50mm diameter tow balls.
Easy Fitting: Simply spin the hand-turning wheel, tighten the key, and lock the carrier to the tow ball. A second nut with an integrated handle ensures the carrier is held firmly in place.
TÜV Approved: Certified for carrying up to 4 bikes, meeting the rigorous ISO R18-904-4 standard.
Safer Tilting: The tilt system is easier and safer than most hang-on racks. It features a foot pedal with a double tilt stop (steel loop and reinforced plastic pedal) for added security. A safety bolt, which requires two people to operate, ensures safe tilting when bikes are loaded.
Additional Features and Specifications:
Optimal Tilt Angle: Allows most tailgates to open, including vertical tailgates.
Adjustable Bike Frame Holders: The padded cradles and long notched straps protect your bike frame. The straps have quick-release functionality for easy removal.
Integrated Locking Cable: Neatly slides into the tubular upright when not in use.
Support Arm Dimensions: The arms are 34.2cm apart, fitting most modern bike frames. A telescopic crossbar is included for non-standard frames.
Protection for Bikes: A Velcro-fastened sleeve with a foam pad protects the first bike.
