Frequently Asked Questions
Here you will find some frequently asked questions about our products.
Safety notice: No. Child seats are expressly prohibited on our luggage racks.
Although the carrier can carry up to 45 kg, it is only approved for transporting goods. The reasons: The included mounting kit is designed for a maximum of 26 kg, the dynamic forces of a child can damage the threaded eyes of the frame, and only a few bicycle manufacturers approve their frames for child seats on such carriers. Please use only child seat systems approved by the frame manufacturer.
Yes! Provided it is a stable aluminum fender, you can mount the carrier directly above it. The mounting kit is fully adjustable and offers various spacers as well as screws in different lengths. This ensures that everything is securely in place and nothing rubs against the tire. Please use only the included self-locking nuts and adapters.
If you cannot attach the carrier to the fender, use the robust seat stay mounting kit (maximum stay length: 350 mm).
Stability Note: The further the stays need to be extended, the lower the overall stability. For maximum stability, the distance between the carrier and the seat stays should be as small as possible.
Check the tight fit of all screws before each ride.
Whether you need an adapter (Extension 5, 7 or 9) required depends on your wheel size and the position of your lower mounting point (near the axle height):
28-inch wheels: At a low mounting point (near the axle), Extension 5 is required.
*29-inch wheels (with 3-inch tires): At a low point Extension 7, at a higher point, Extension 5.
*Fat bikes (from 4 inches tire width): Depending on frame clearance, Extension 5 or Extension 7 is required.
32-inch wheels: At a low point Extension 7 (for 3-inch width possibly Extension 9), at a higher point, Extension 5.
36-inch wheels: At a low point Extension 9, at a higher point Extension 7.
Yes, thanks to the construction from high-quality stainless steel, the carrier is extremely corrosion-resistant and does not rust under normal weather conditions.
Exception saltwater: Avoid permanent contact with seawater or road salt in winter. If it comes into contact with salt, simply rinse it with clear water and dry it briefly.
Our carrier is standard for modern thru-axles (142 mm and 148 mm Boost standard) designed. However, if you ride an older or classic bicycle with a narrower rear frame width (dropouts under 170 mm), the carrier may be too wide. This is where the No-Boost Adapter made of aluminum comes in, providing a firm, torsion-resistant hold on narrower frames.
Yes. Stainless steel does not degrade under normal conditions and does not rust, giving the carrier an exceptionally long lifespan. Just like our motto: The most sustainable product is the one you only need to buy once in your life.
Our luggage carrier follows a completely new concept: It transforms your existing bicycle into a powerful cargo bike. Instead of spending several thousand euros on a large e-cargo bike, our system maximizes your transport capacity flexibly. Please note: Always adjust the load to your own riding practice and physical strength. Detailed information on various loading situations can be found right here in our FAQ as well as in the user manual.
The optimal position depends on your amount of luggage and frame size. Our anto Tragfläche are intentionally designed to start behind the saddle, allowing even large boxes to fit easily and preventing you from hitting your legs or heels while pedaling (ideal for larger shoe sizes as well).
Everyday & light loading (2 side bags): You can securely attach two normally packed bags centrally on the carrier. Use the adjustment options of common manufacturers (e.g. Ortlieb, Valkental, Fahrer Berlin): Push the front adjustment lever (in the direction of travel) slightly backward and align the lower closure so that it clicks behind the 45-degree brace. The bag may move a bit forward.
Heavy Loads & Tours (Optimize Center of Gravity): Always place heavy luggage as far forward as possible near the rear axle. Important for frames with mounting points behind the axle (at the dropout): Here, the luggage sits far back. Make sure to set the center of gravity as far forward as possible. For very heavy total luggage, we additionally recommend a frame bag or a front rack (lowrider) to distribute the load evenly.
Maximum Packing Volume (4 Side Bags): If you use four bags, the two rear bags must necessarily be hung on the lower level and only be loaded very lightly (max. 4 kg including their own weight).
You can find detailed instructions in the user manual. A detailed test report with all the details on the mounting positions will follow shortly!
