XLC Almada Work-E VC-08 foldable Bike Carrier with frame adapter - 2 bikes

The XLC Almada Work-E (VC-C08) is the technological revolution acclaimed by E-MTB (Electric Mountain Bike) and road cycling enthusiasts. This premium towbar-mounted model does more than just transport your bikes: it redefines your experience thanks to its integrated workstand, a world exclusive for demanding cyclists.

A mobile workshop everywhere with you: The real user benefit lies in its unique 2-in-1 concept

In one motion, the main arm transforms into a professional repair stand. Whether you need to lubricate your chain after a muddy ride or change an inner tube in a parking lot, the Almada Work-E holds your bike at chest height. It is the ideal companion for electric bike maintenance away from home, offering total autonomy without having to lay your bike on the ground or bend over.

Specifically designed for heavy electric bikes, this bike carrier supports a colossal load of 60 kg (30 kg per rail), easily accommodating high-capacity batteries. Its great strength lies in its universal compatibility: unlike other models, the VC-C08 is equipped with a specific adapter arm for low-step frames or specialized geometries. Furthermore, the fastening clamps are specially optimized for carbon frames, preventing any dangerous compression points thanks to controlled pressure.

Whether you own a full-suspension MTB, a competitive road bike, or a low-step "swan neck" frame, this universal bike carrier adapts to all geometries thanks to its included adapter and extra-wide wheelbase. Its aerodynamic design allows you to drive serenely up to 130 km/h while optimizing your vehicle's fuel or energy consumption.
