BUZZ RACK Spark
It’s supplied almost fully assembled; minimum work is required.
It’s the right shape for storing in the boot when not in use.
It fits to all tow balls with an easy “first time out only” adjustment system.
Fitting is simple and, above all, fast; place the carrier on the tow ball and lift the lever, the ergonomically easy thing to do, with nothing to tighten or turn.
The BUZZ RACK Spark is genuinely easy to tilt, well balanced during the tilting phase. The tilt function is accessed at the front of the carrier so it’s easy to get to, unlike many other bike carriers.
It sits high on the tow ball, well clear of speed bumps and other hazards such as steep ferry ramps.
The wheel holders, much more robust than we’ve seen elsewhere, will slide in and out and will accommodate all wheelbases, even very small children’s bikes if you turn the wheel holders through 180º.
The wheel straps are tough, easily adjusted and fit tyres up to 2.8 inches. A longer strap is available separately if you have semi-fat tyres – see below. A fat tyres adapter is also available for wheels up to 4.6″.
Both bike holders have locks, and the carrier also locks to the tow ball with a robust lock.
Flick up a couple of cam levers and the carrier folds flat for easier storage.
All parts are replaceable if e.g. someone forgets that a tow bar carrier is fitted and reverses into a wall – which happens!
Dimensions: 96cm wide by 61cm deep (measured from the centre of the tow ball mount to the outside edge of the number plate holder).
Weight: 17.5kg.
The BUZZ RACK Spark comes with a 5 function 13 pin lighting system, with UK compliant fog lights, i.e. the fog light is on the right hand side / offside. An adapter is available if you have a 7 pin socket.
The build quality – tube bending, welding, rust proofing, painting, component quality, is exemplary. All tools you might need are provided.
It’s TÜV approved to ISO standard R15264-4, a standard some way tougher than current requirements.
