Five things you should know about the Ballard’s bike carrier

When you're transporting your dirt bike from A to B, you want to make sure it's safe, secure, and easy to load and unload. That's where the Ballards Bike Rack/Carrier comes in. 

In this article, we look at five things you should know about the handy motorbike rack.

Affordable transport alternative: Motocross is expensive, and finding a way to transport your dirt bike is no cheap exercise either, with most riding buying a trailer or using a ute/van. The Ballard's Bike Carrier is a more affordable alternative to move your bike around, and it takes up no extra space in your garage or backyard when parked up during the week.

Lightweight: Weighing in at just 25kg, the motorbike carrier is incredibly lightweight and suits vehicles with a 150kg tow ball capacity. The lightweight nature of the carrier means it's easy to install and remove, plus, it takes up minimal weight on the tow ball, allowing for most two-stroke and four-stroke dirt bikes to fit under the rated limit.

Strong & steady support: The dirt bike carrier is strong, sturdy and secure. It utilises a multi-adjustable loop over design that ensures your bike remains secure and give that have extra peace of mind, while the wheel straps and supports are incredibly strong and secure. 

Multiple mounting points: There are a number of mounting positions and tie-down points, along with adjustable turnbuckles and removable shackles. This means your bike will remain secure and you can travel worry-free.

Fits most vehicles: The bike rack is extremely versatile and fits the majority of vehicles with a towbar and Hayman Reese style receivers. Keep in mind that if you have a tray-back ute or a 4WD with a spare tyre mounted to the back door, you may encounter some difficulty mounting your motorbike, however a hitch extension will solve this problem.
