The bike rack on your Van Villa can hold a maximum of 50kg for both bikes combined. The maximum capacity per individual rail is 30kg.
Be sure to check the weight, especially if you want to take e-bikes, because some e-bikes exceed the maximum weight!
- Remove the Italy/Spain warning label. It is attached with reusable cable ties.
- Loosen the straps on both sides that hold the carrier up and lower it carefully:
- Secure the rails at the back with the plastic straps on the carrier:
- Unlock the frame locks with the small silver bicycle carrier key (if not already done).
- Adjust the position of the wheel straps on the rail according to the bike and open the straps.
- First fasten the frame locks at the top and then strap the bikes to the rails:
- If possible, use one tension strap to secure two bikes.
- Lock the frame locks so that your bikes cannot be stolen. If they are locked, the handle can still be turned but not opened.
- Then return the carrier with the bikes to the top position and secure it with the straps on the left and right:
- Reattach the Italy/Spain warning sign with the reusable cable ties.
Attention
- You are responsible for ensuring that the bicycles are always secured while participating in road traffic.
- If you are only transporting one bike, use the rail closest to the vehicle.
- Make sure that the wheels do not cover the rear lights or indicators.
- Be careful when lowering the loaded carrier. Risk of injury!
