[edit] WideLoader Uses

Large, bulky objects that won't fit in your FreeLoaders require a platform to rest on. WideLoaders create a horizontal surface that allows you to safely carry items like shipping boxes, plastic bins, water coolers, etc.

[edit] Use with Other Xtracycle Accessories

[edit] LongLoader

LongLoader is a device that puts long loads out and away from your pedaling zone. It requires the use of a WideLoader and V-rack.

[edit] KickBack

KickBack is a center stand that mounts to the front bridge of your Xtracycle or Big Dummy. You can use KickBack with its supplied axles or use a WideLoader in place of the axle.

[edit] Installation

  1. Remove any plugs or KickBack axles from the side you're mounting your WideLoader.
  2. Be sure you're using the proper side, the Xtracycle X logo should be facing up. You can use it on the opposite side it was intended for, but use at your own risk as we only warranty the sling for use on its proper side.
  3. Insert the front tube into the front bridge as far as the button then insert the rear tube into the rear bridge and depress the spring button and insert about half an inch.
  4. While holding the rear tube in place, depress the front button and slide in both ends evenly. Uneven insertion will cause binding and may make it difficult to insert completely.
  5. Ensure button pops through bridge holes.
  6. Velcro hoops to FreeRadical/Big Dummy frame, carry away!
