The load(s) attached or placed on 
the carrier off the Utility Bicycle 
have to be securely fastened. 
Check that no edges or parts of 
the load can get in contact with 
moving parts of the bicycle. 

Always make sure you have at 
least two well-adjusted brakes. 
Under severe loads (as when 
carrying a passenger or cargo at 
high speed a very strong front 
brake can lead to failure of the 
front fork. 

 

check to see that your wheels are securely fastened, 

 

that your helmet (and head) is securely fastened, 

 

that no components or frame members are cracked or broken (in general, if at 
any time you notice a crack or bend in your bike, stem, forks, or bars of your 
bicycle, stop riding immediately; take your rig to your local bike shop and have 
them inspect it) 

 

Maximum payloads 

For the carrier: 200kg/ 440lbs 
Behind axle: 50kg/ 110 lbs 
Side platform: 50kg/ 110lbs (eachside) 
 

Loading platforms 

Carrier : loading platform #1 

The carrier is where you want to transport boxes, 
baskets, cartons. Center the load and securely 
attach it to the carrier using a rope, cam straps or 
bungee cord. 
 

Sideloaders : lateral loading platforms #2 

These horizontal racks provide a perfect platform for 
carrying big boxes and the like, and are essential if you plan to carry really long things 
like flagpoles, kayaks, or lumber. They can also be used for passengers’ feet support.  
 

Loading tips 

Bike loading 

Load the kickstand side of the bike first, and load it with the things you need the most. 
Not only will the load be more 
accessible, but it will help 
keep the bike from falling over 
when you load heavy things 
on the other side. 
 

Using the kickstand 

If your bike wants to fall over 
every time you put a load on 
the right side. 
 

Figure a : using a pole or hard surface
