BUZZ RACK carriers always have great build quality and this rack is extremely versatile too. It's strong enough to take bikes up to 20kg, so it's ideal for eBikes. It will also take a wheelbase up to 134cm and a bigger tyres up to 4". It's got a large upright so you'll have no problem securing MTBs with huge frames, it's equally suited to smaller bikes too. If you are looking for a versatile and future-proof rack for two bikes this should certainly be on your shortlist.

Fits wheelbases: 84cm to 127 cm for 26" wheels, 134cm for 29ers

Assembly: Even though it doesn't come assembled the E-Hornet  is very easy to put together: assemble the wheel support frame to the base using the supplied 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 it on 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 wheel until it's tight, and lock it. BUZZ RACK'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.

Lighting system: The E-Hornet comes with a 7 pin lighting system

Tilting: Tilting is easy, and is very well balanced even with a full load. The E-Hornet 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. 

• The patented conical fitting fits to all tow balls.
• The E-Hornet is particularly well balanced - you can let go once you've placed it on the tow ball, which makes fitting the rack much easier.
• It's easy to fit to the tow ball. Fitting is a matter of spinning a hand-turning wheel, a really quick, easy and ergonomically satisfactory thing to do. Turn the key in the tightening wheel and the carrier is then locked to the tow ball. Additional tensioning is sometimes required (using the integrated handle), depending on the tow ball, to make sure the carrier is firm.
• It sits high on the tow ball, well clear of speed bumps and other hazards such as steep ferry ramps.
• The wheel holders will accommodate larger wheelbases; up to 134cm for 29ers.
• Ratchet straps allow a quick and secure attachment of the wheels, long straps can accommodate tyres up to 4” wide.
• Lockable frame arms hold your bikes securely and can be attached to any part of the frame, or the seat post.
• Locks to the tow ball.
• The large upright is suitable for bikes with very large frames.
• It tilts to allow access to the boot, even with the bikes fitted. It is genuinely easy to tilt and well balanced during the tilting phase.
• Supplied with a 7 pin lighting system, adapters are available if you have a 13 pin socket
• All parts are replaceable if e.g. someone forgets that a tow bar carrier is fitted and reverses into a wall - which happens!
• A loading ramp is available separately
• The build quality - tube bending, welding, rust proofing, painting, component quality, is exemplary. All tools you might need are provided.
• We also think it looks great!
