Install the rear rack

Below you'll find the instructions you'll need to install the Voltaire rear rack, which are also available on the leaflet supplied with the rack.

You can download the instructions below. An explanatory video is available at the end of this article and on our YouTube channel.

Make sure that all parts are supplied in the box and that you have prepared all the necessary tools for assembly.

Prior to assembly

Before fitting the rear rack, check that it is compatible with your bike.The rear rack is compatible only with 26" wheels, is approved to support a child seat or animals, and can carry a maximum load of 27 kg. We recommend that you check that the bicycle frame has the necessary threaded studs for mounting the rack, that they are spaced between 155mm and 165mm apart, and that the bicycle is strong enough to carry a load at the rear.

Any modification of the rear rack is strictly forbidden by the manufacturer, as it may pose a risk to the user and other users. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage resulting from such modifications. During use, it is important not to exceed the maximum permitted load, and to carry panniers or luggage only on the rear rack. If a child seat is fitted, carefully read the baby carrier's instructions and check that no ties can get caught in the wheel.

Finally, check that reflectors and lights are visible and not covered by the rack or its load. The Voltaire rear rack is designed to be mounted on city or mountain bikes.

Read the instructions carefully before installing the rear rack.

If you have any doubts about compatibility with your bike, contact your dealer or visit our website www.voltaire.bike.
