MAXXRAXX carriers are designed from first principles; some people think they're quirky, with their single supporting arm. Are they stable enough? Are they strong enough? Of course they are. That single arm is a serious benefit, and as for stability, they're the best of the hang on racks.

MAXXRAXX carriers are designed from first principles; some people think they're quirky, with their single supporting arm. Are they stable enough? Are they strong enough? Of course they are. That single arm is a serious benefit, and as for stability, they're the best of the hang on racks.
So what's the big deal about MAXXRAXX carriers? Apart from the solid British engineering and clever design features (see below), you can:
In other words, they offer a degree of flexibility which other 'hang on' carriers can't match. It's a "Discovery" 5 bike carrier designed for cars, vans and 4 x 4 vehicles with a narrower spare wheel requiring a 125mm offset. Design features / specifications include:
A range of accessories are shown below, including a Light Board Hanger, a lighting board (7 pin plug supplied; check the accessories page for an adapter if you have a 13 pin socket), a Wall Mount Bracket which provides off the ground secure bike storage as well as a ready made work station, and an Artificial Cross Bar for Y-frame and ladies bikes. We also have a full spares programme, including the parts required to transfer your MAXXRAXX between different types of vehicle - click here for details. This carrier holds a maximum 5 bikes, and we assume that you are only buying it because your vehicle has a maximum nose weight of 100kg or more. If there is any doubt, please check with your tow bar fitter to be on the safe side. This rack us supplied two auxiliary safety straps which must be used when carrying more than 2 bikes to avoid any shock load damage to the tow bar. You can't tow at the same time as using this bike rack. MAXXRAXX do have a bike carrier available that allows you to tow and carry bikes if you have a bolt-on style tow ball - click here for details. Special Offer! Buy a MAXXRAXX cycle carrier from us and we'll give you a FREE MaxxRaxx Light Board Hanger, worth £12.50. Only 1 light board hanger per carrier purchased. |

Deciding which bike carriers to buy is not always easy, especially as you may not have had experience of using bike carriers before. We hope that our buying guides provide useful guidance about which bike carrier 'strategy' will be most appropriate for your circumstances, as well as highlighting the best features of particular models. We also have troubleshooting FAQs - for example, some customers struggle at first to fit four bikes onto a tow ball carrier, and wonder whether a different carrier would allow the bikes to be spaced wider apart. (It won't, but we have some good tips which make bike fitting much easier.) Our bike carriers Exchange Scheme covers roof mounting and tow ball mounting bike carriers only. Rear door mounting / strap on carriers are not included, and nor are roof bars. It allows you to exchange within 90 days of invoice date. Most exchanges are for roof mounting upgrades, or are tow ball carriers with very basic tilting systems being exchanged for easy to use sliding / tilting carriers. These are the rules of the bike carriers Exchange Scheme:

Bike carriers with 7 pin plugs Wheel support bike carriers which are supplied with 7 pin plugs usually only include rear lights, brake lights and indicator lights, which is why they are often called ‘3 function lights’. Unusually, Thule bike carriers with 7 pin plugs also include a fog light; this works when plugged into 7 pin electrics, but it does not work when plugged into 13 pin electrics via an adapter. Bike carriers with 13 pin plugs Bike carriers which are supplied with 13 pin plugs include a fog light and reversing light, as well as rear lights, brake lights and indicator lights – which is why they are often called ‘5 function lights’. If these are plugged into 13 pin electrics then all 5 functions will work. If they are plugged into 7 pin electrics via an adapter then the fog light should work, but the reversing light on the bike carrier will not work. Please note These notes assume that your tow bar electrics have been wired correctly! Tow bar wiring in the digital age is much more complicated than it used to be when everything was analogue. Our experience is that if you are having lighting problems, e.g. a fog light does not work in 7 pin tow bar electrics, the problem is much more likely to be caused by the wiring, not by a dud bulb in the bike carrier. |
