To practice loading and unloading your bike follow these easy steps:

1. Squeeze the rack handle upwards to release the folded bike rack.

Bring the swing-arm down.

2. Lift your bike onto the tray, fitting the wheels into the slots. Each rack is labeled for front wheel placement.

3. Push in the black knob at the end of the support arm.

4. Pull the support arm all the way out and over the top of the front wheel. The support arm needs to be as close as possible to the bicycle's frame.

5. Congratulations! Your bike is now safely loaded.

1. Raise the support arm off the tire.

2. Move the support arm down and out of your way.

3. Lift your bike out of the rack.

4. Return the bike rack to the folded position. Reach underneath the rack to grab the handle. Squeeze and raise.

Now you’re ready to catch the bus with your bike! Have fun & good luck! - NSCC Transportation
