We're giving away a free hitch!

There’s nothing that quite beats the feeling of the wind in your face as you hurdle past trees or other slow moving bikes on the trail. In order to get yourself set up for these future trails, you’ll need to make sure that you have everything to get you there including a bike, helmet, gear, a bike rack and a hitch!

 

Torklift Central will be attending the Seattle Bike Show to help you get a couple of those items: the bike rack and the hitch! There’s a lot going on at this show and you don’t want to miss everything we have planned – including a video showing how easy it is to install an EcoHitch!

The Nissan LEAF with the EcoHitch and bike rack installed!

 

The Torklift Central Booth
This is the first year that we’re going to have a Nissan LEAF in our booth to show off the EcoHitch and how hidden it is compared to other hitches available. The Nissan LEAF EcoHitch is a no-hassle, no-drill installation that is a perfect complement to your bike rack needs!

 

You may be asking yourself why choose a hitch-mounted system for hauling bikes rather than a roof-mounted rack. There are a few reasons why a hitch-mounted bike rack is often a better decision. For one, you’re not having to load cargo and bikes over your head and onto the roof which could be an accident waiting to happen. With the bikes installed on your roof, the aerodynamics of your vehicle while driving are also affected and can increase your gas or electric consumption. If you forget to unload your roof rack, you could also potentially drive into your garage with the bikes still installed! Another issue with roof racks is that you can scratch and damage your bike or car if you’re not careful while loading and off-loading.

 

With a hitch-mounted system, it’s much easier to load your gear behind the vehicle and you don’t have to worry about scratching or damaging your car since everything is contained as a unit behind it. Another advantage to the trailer hitches is that it installs to the frame of your vehicle rather than the roof, making it a sturdier and safer option. Plus, there’s the perk of avoiding the trouble of dis-assembling your bike to try and fit it into the back trunk or seat area when you have a hitch-mounted rack.

 

As a special Seattle Bike Show treat, we are also doing a giveaway of a free hitch! So, if you’re interested in getting hitched this spring, make sure you enter for a chance to win. But! You have to be at the show in order to sign up to win the free hitch, so we hope to see you there.
