Key Features of the Buzzrack E-HORNET 2 E-Bike Carrier
The E-HORNET 2 is packed with features that enhance convenience and security, making it a top choice for transporting your buzz e bike.
Effortless Assembly: While delivered unassembled, setting up the E-HORNET 2 is remarkably straightforward. In just a few minutes, you can easily attach the wheel support frame to the base using four screws, followed by the light support with two additional screws. Installing the license plate is equally simple. The tool-free attachment to the tow ball means you’ll be ready to hit the road with your buzz e bike in no time.
Secure and Stable Car Fitting: Mounting the E-HORNET 2 onto your car’s tow ball is designed for ease and security. The carrier is self-supporting upon initial placement, allowing you to manage the weight without concern. Simply tighten the knob until secure and lock it. BUZZRACK carriers, including this buzz e bike model, adhere to the stringent XPR-18-904-4 standard, incorporating an anti-sway tensioner. Typically, just a few turns of the integrated handle are sufficient to ensure a rock-solid fit, minimizing movement and protecting your e-bikes during transit.
Safe and User-Friendly Bike Holding: Positioning your buzz e bike on the E-HORNET 2 is intuitive. The wheel supports are designed to cradle your bike securely. Adjustable clamps slide along the vertical tubular frame, allowing you to find the perfect point to secure your bike frame, regardless of its design. Once clamped, ratchet straps firmly attach the wheels to the supports, and the clamps can be locked for added security against theft. This system ensures your buzz e bike remains stable and protected throughout your journey.
Integrated Lighting System for Enhanced Visibility: The E-HORNET 2 is equipped with a comprehensive lighting system, available with either a 7-pin or 13-pin connector, depending on regional standards. Folding lights are incorporated in the 13-pin version for added convenience and protection. While a 7-pin to 13-pin adapter is not included, it can be purchased separately if needed, ensuring compatibility with your vehicle’s electrical system and maximizing safety and visibility on the road when transporting your buzz e bike.
Tilting Function for Easy Trunk Access (Limited for Certain Vehicles): The tilting mechanism of the E-HORNET 2 is engineered for ease of use, remaining well-balanced even when fully loaded with buzz e bikes. Its elevated position on the tow ball and optimized tilt angle are designed to prevent the lights from scraping the road, while leveraging the weight of the bikes to facilitate a controlled return to the level position. However, it’s important to note that the design may not accommodate the opening of tall vertical tailgates, such as those found on VW Transporter T5 and T6 models. For most vehicles, though, accessing your trunk remains a simple process even with your buzz e bikes loaded.
