Video Summary
The video reviews three main types of bike carriers: hitch mount, roof mount, and trunk mount.The hitch mount carrier is found to be the most convenient for loading and unloading bikes, making it well-suited for heavy electric bikes.
A hitch mount carrier provides good aerodynamic efficiency and has a stable, secure attachment point.
A hitch mount carrier requires a tow hitch, which increases overall cost. It also lengthens the vehicle and can obstruct rear visibility. It may also prevent trunk access, unless it has a tilt function.
The roof mount carrier doesn't obstruct rear views and has no lateral bulk.
The roof mount carriers can be affordable and left installed even when not in use.
A roof mount carrier makes loading and unloading bikes inconvenient, especially if the bikes are heavy. Portapack must also be present and must also have a good load capacity.
A roof mount can increase vertical height and decrease aerodynamic performance.
Trunk mount carriers are typically made to fit specific vehicle models.
The trunk mount carriers are among the more economical options. They also facilitate loading.
A trunk mount system may require extra time for careful installation to be effective and secure. A trunk mount carrier is likely to obstruct rear visibility.
The Peruzzo Atlantis 2 E-bikes Art.714 hitch mount carrier is certified, innovative, and patented. It allows tilting of the bikes for trunk access and is 100% made in Italy.
The Atlantis 2 e-bikes carrier has adjustable arms for connecting to any type of frame and wheel support straps with ratchets. It also features locking mechanisms for added security. The Atlantis 2 e-bikes is fitted with tail lights and includes a cable for electronic connection.
The Atlantis 2 e-bikes carrier has a maximum load of 60 kg, supports wheel sizes from 12" to 29", and has aluminum construction. It is also delivered fully assembled.
