Key features of the E-HORNET 3
Assembly: Even though it is not assembled, E-HORNET H2 is very easy to put together: assemble the wheel support frame to the base using 4 screws, fit the rack into the 2″ receiver with the wrench provided and you are ready to go!
Fitting to the car: Made to fit 2″ receiver tubes, equipped with a locking hitch bolt and tool included.
Holding the bike: Simply position the bike on the wheel support. Adjust the clamp position by sliding it around the vertical tubular frame to find the perfect fit with the bike frame. Clamp the frame, attach the wheels using the ratchet straps, lock the clamps.
Optional lighting system: The E-HORNET H3 was designed to receive our different lights and license plate supports (7 or 13 pin light kit available).
Tilting: Tilting is easy, and is very well balanced even with a full load. It gives you an easy access to the trunk.
Folding: Folding is easy using a simple handle secured with a safety steel clip.
