More transport space for your car: load cleverly without a trailer thanks to the modular back system
Flexible, practical, well thought-out: the Back-System
Whether for gardening, sports, camping or DIY projects – there are many situations where additional storage space is needed. With our innovative load carrier for towbars, we offer the perfect solution for anyone who wants flexible transport – without a trailer and without cluttering up the interior of their vehicle.
The basis is our robust BackCarrier carrier module, which is easily and securely mounted on the towbar.
BackCarrier – The strong basis of the modular Back-System
The BackCarrier forms the heart of our modular Back-System – an innovative carrier system for the towbar that can be individually adapted to your transport needs. As a carrier module, the BackCarrier is mounted directly on the towbar and serves as the basis for various top parts:
Despite its low weight, the BackCarrier impresses with a load capacity of up to 82.5 kg. This is made possible by its extremely stable and durable construction – perfect for demanding everyday use, travelling or work.
Particularly practical: the integrated tilting mechanism ensures that you can still access the boot easily even when the attachment is fitted. Simply pull the tilt lever and the entire structure folds down to the rear.
The BackCarrier is not only the technical basis, but also the key to a flexible, everyday and extendable transport system.
⚠️ Important note: Always ensure that all load carriers and homemade constructions are carefully secured. This is the only way to guarantee safe transport and maintain road safety.
BackPack – The multi-purpose transport platform
The BackPack is the universal top part for the BackCarrier and ideal for anyone looking for additional loading space for a wide variety of items:
Whether it’s a lawnmower, toolboxes, cool box or sports bags – with the BackPack, you’re equipped for all eventualities.
Please note: The double folding mechanism for vans does not work with the BackPack. Due to the depth of the platform, there is not enough space to the floor.
BackWork – The module for creative minds
Want to build your own transport solution? No problem! The BackWork is the modular basic frame for customised designs – perfect for anyone who likes to get stuck in:
Please note: Legal requirements must be observed for DIY projects – in particular the installation of rear lights and number plates.
FAQs on bike carriers and rear boxes on the towbar
Depending on the age of the model, we can send you replacement keys. The lock number has 3 digits and can be read off the lock cylinder. If the required locking number is no longer available, it is still possible to replace all locks.

Yes, if you have a towbar fitted to your vehicle, the make and model does not matter. There are only differences in the folding mechanism. If you have a vehicle with a very large tailgate, such as a VW bus or a Mercedes-Benz Viano, you can only open the tailgate with our “BackPower” model.
No, a TÜV inspection is not required as the carrier has an EU type approval.
The drawbar load depends on the trailer coupling and the car. You will find the permissible drawbar load on the type plate directly on your coupling or in the vehicle registration document.
Yes, all systems can be mounted on the towbar quickly and easily without tools.
This depends on the model purchased. You will find the payload on the gray sticker located in the area of the coupling. The payload is the weight that may be loaded onto the carrier itself.
Example
You have a drawbar load of 75 kg and your carrier weighs 15 kg. This means you can still load 60 kg onto the carrier.
75 kg – 15 kg = 60 kg.
There is a gray sticker on the carrier in the area of the clutch. The name behind the type designation is important.
