The E-Scorpion is a great choice for those who like their bikes with some beef, when it comes to transporting larger and heavier bikes such as e-bikes or MTB bikes it excels. With a weight capacity of 30kg, fold up feature and easy fitting. This carrier also has a very well thought out design and quality execution of production, with Buzzrack using the best quality alloys, construction techniques, and coating methods. It sits high on the tow ball to allow excellent ground clearance, avoiding scraping on the steepest slopes.
The E-Scorpion will also fit bike types with long wheelbases up to 129.5cm, making it suitable for a wide range of bike sizes and varieties. The wheel tray and ratchet strap design will allow fitting of a bike with up to 4in wide tires. These ratchet straps also make mounting your bike very simple and easy.
An extra convenience of the E-Scorpion is in the ability to tilt your carrier for full rear access to your vehicle, even with your bike loaded.
This carrier secures your bike via a frame clamp which can also be attached to the seat post. It makes for a secure attachment point but has the risk of marking your bike's frame while underway, albeit a minimal risk as the clamps has good padding. The frame clamp features an integrated lock for security and is vertically adjustable. It fits bikes with frame tube diameters between 25mm and 50mm, which allows for a huge range of bike sizes and types.
The E-Scorpion fits any 50mm (2in) size tow ball and has a conical attachment design to ensure that any variant of tow ball in 50mm size will fit perfectly. Speaking of security, the tightening knob also features an integrated lock, further adding to your peace of mind. Fitting to your tow ball is also made simple with the E-Scorpion as you fit it in the folded position. Buzz Rack have taken extra care to ensure excellent balance so when you place it onto your tow ball for fitting it will balance there with very little aid. For more details on installation please refer to the instructions below.
The E-Scorpion also features a full set lights and number plate board, with a standard 7 pin connector. Australian model includes an anti-sway kit plus all necessary tools needed for installation and adjustment of your bike carrier.
Adding to the overall design features of this carrier is its ability to fold up when not in use, this means it'll take up less space while in storage and it's less awkward to handle.
Please check your towbar rating and local state laws. Read the following instructions carefully and refer to the last picture provided before attempting to install this unit on to your vehicle.
The maximum permitted load you can carry is also determined by the tow bar nose weight; you will need to check you don't exceed this before using any tow ball mounted bike carrier.
