Installation of the V-Rack - Model: 1011 

The V-Rack is a very unique bike carrier.  It is designed to clamp onto the 2” x 2” insert 

(sometimes referred to a “Stinger-Tube”) that fits into the more common 2 x 2” receiver hitch.  

The clamping power or pressure is a lot.  It needs to be this firm in order to stabilize the 2 bikes 

that you may want to carry.  The weight limit must be 26 kg or 57 lbs. maximum. 

 

You must first align the V-Rack with the 2” x 2” insert tube.  It will need to have about 1½” of 
clamping space on the insert tube.  There must be this much space for it to clamp on for proper 

use.
