Transport your Tadpole Recumbent, D Trike, or Handcycle with Ease
The Easy Load Tray uses the transporting Vehicle’s 2” receiver hitch. It lays out flat to load your trike or handcycle from either side with two ramps. Three ramps are available if desired. There are two wheel chocks on the outside wheel trays and tie down straps on all three wheel trays. It folds vertically when unloaded therefore it is not required to remove the Tray when the trike or handcycle is not loaded.
Carries one tadpole trike, D trike, CatTrike 559, or handcycle outside the transporting vehicle.
Using a ramp to load your recumbent bike onto your car offers several advantages:
1. Ease of Loading: Ramps provide a gradual incline, making it easier to push or roll your recumbent bike onto the tray compared to lifting it directly. This reduces physical strain and the risk of injury during the loading process.
2. Protection of Bike and Car: Ramps typically have a smooth surface, which helps prevent scratches or damage to both your recumbent bike and your car during loading and unloading. This is especially important for expensive or delicate bikes and cars.
3. Independence and Convenience: With a ramp, you can load and unload your recumbent bike without requiring assistance from others. This is particularly advantageous if you frequently transport your bike alone or in a situation where help may not be readily available.

So far so good
We received the bike carrier with 2 ramps about 3 weeks ago. Putting it together was strait forward. We loaded the carrier onto our vehicle and tested it. It was easy to install and easy for me to load my 69lb Catrike Trail with e-assist onto the carrier. We will be testing more thoroughly on our camping trip in a couple of weeks. Customer service was great. Very responsive to all my questions and kept me apprised of shipping and delivery. So far I’m impressed. I’d like to follow up with a further review once we’ve actually used the carrier on a trip

Great trike carrier and even better customer service
This trike carrier is perfect for my TerraTrike Maverick with an attached electric pedal-assist motor. It was easy to put together with clear instructions. Loading the trike is as simple as putting the ramps in place and wheeling the trike up them. I would recommend getting the model with three ramps instead of two. Additionally, the customer service from All Around E-Bikes was superb. They confirmed that I had the model I needed and recommended I downgrade to a more suitable option because the carrier I initially ordered was overkill. This saved me over $200. They also made sure the trike carrier would fit my vehicle prior to shipping. I had an excellent experience.

The crank that you use to tighten the rack into the receiver doesn’t work. Leaving the rack loose and unsafe. Customer support does not respond. Not sure where to go from here this was a big purchase and I had it professionally assembled, now it is defective.
