IMPORTANT NOTES:
• This bicycle rack has been designed to carry one (1) bike, as long as the maximum weight on the rack does
not exceed 18 kgs or 40 lb.
• This rack is designed for typical use and applications (on paved or smooth gravel roads). Do not use this rack
on a vehicle that will be driven on rough roads or where the rack (and bikes) will be subjected to significant or
constant jarring and/or shock, or any vehicle with very stiff springs that will transfer the load shocks directly to
the rack and the bikes.
• Proper fitting and installation of this carrier to your specific vehicle is critical, and is the owner’s sole
responsibility.
• Check security of all clamps & straps during trip at fuel and rest stops to ensure that they are still tight and
secure. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
• Improper use of this product may result in damage to your rack, your vehicle, your bicycles, or even other
vehicles driving behind you (as a result of colliding with or trying to avoid fallen bicycles and/or the rack).
• ROLA™ racks are coated to help prevent rust. As with any metal equipment it is recommended that
you keep the rack clean and remove road salt and debris.
• When leaving them outside for extended periods of time the finish will lose its luster. It is recommended that
when not in use the rack is stored indoors.
• Take care to add padding on any area of the bikes that touches another bike or any part of the vehicle.
Damage can and will happen (to your bikes and/or to the vehicle) if care is not taken during the loading and
transporting of your bikes, and padding used where necessary.
• Bikes fitted with large accessories (such as child carrying seat) will greatly increase the wind resistance
and therefore the pressure on the rack and all vehicle-mounting points. Reducing vehicle speed will reduce
the chance of any problems occurring because of this situation.
Please read all instructions carefully before assembly, installation and/or use of this product.
