About Eazzy2 Велокрепление

Eazzy2 — это велосипедное крепление для автомобиля, устанавливаемое на фаркоп. Оно позволяет перевозить два велосипеда различной формы и размера общей массой до 40 килограммов. Система быстрой фиксации на шаровой опоре фаркопа позволяет установить и снять крепление одним простым защёлкивающим движением. Рама откидывается, благодаря чему багажник автомобиля открывается без снятия крепления. Встроенная ручка, U-образная направляющая рампа и колёса облегчают установку, погрузку и хранение. В конструкции использованы сталь и пластик, а роботизированная сварка повышает жёсткость и снижает вибрацию и шум.
