About Eazzy2 Fahrradträger
Eazzy2 ist ein auf der Anhängerkupplung montierter Fahrradträger für Pkw. Zwei Fahrräder unterschiedlicher Form und Größe können transportiert werden, bis zu einer Gesamtlast von 40 Kilogramm. Ein Schnellverschlusssystem für die Anhängerkupplung ermöglicht das Anbringen und Abnehmen des Trägers mit einem einzigen einfachen Handgriff. Der Rahmen lässt sich abklappen, sodass sich der Kofferraum öffnen lässt, ohne den Träger abzunehmen. Ein integrierter Griff, eine U-förmige Führungsschiene und Räder erleichtern Montage, Beladung und Verstauung. Verwendet werden Stahl und Kunststoff; das Roboterschweißen erhöht die Steifigkeit und reduziert Vibrationen und Geräusche.
