The Airborne Bike Rack System is designed to hold up to six bikes with three on each side. Made of aluminum alloy, bikes are locked into adjustable mounts via an innovative locking system and a secondary safety strap. The mount system can be easily adjusted by the pilot to accommodate any size of mountain bike or road bike. The system weighs only 55 kilograms and can be pilot installed within 60 seconds. Loading can be accomplished in approximately 20 seconds with trained ground crew.
