Can I install a carrier on my CUBE bike?

Category: FAQ, Technik

Basically all CUBE bikes that have a carrier installed initially are, of course, approved for carrier installation. Also aluminum hardtail frames that are ready for mounting a luggage rack are not exempted. The important thing is that fastening points are provided at the dropouts and at the top of the seatstay. Aluminum frames in combination with aluminum seatposts: carriers can also be installed at the seatpost. However, the max. load of 8 kg is not to be exceeded. Carbon seatposts are generally not suitable for such seatpost-carriers, because the clamping can notch the post and cause sudden breakage

Excluded from carrier assembly are all carbon bikes as carbon fullies, carbon hardtails and carbon racing road bikes. The combination carbon frame / aluminum

seatpost is also exempted for mounting a seatpost-carrier.

The occurring stress when using a luggage carrier can harm carbon frames on long-term. This can lead to unexpected breakage of the frame and serious accidents.
