MANILA, Philippines - Montblanc, a specialty Swedish company whose core competence is designing and manufacturing bike and load carrier systems for 65 years is now available in the local market. Since 1947, Montblanc has been Europe’s leading load systems supplier of major automotive brands with research and development facilities based in Sweden, Romania, France, Germany and the United Kingdom.
Their extensive product range includes roof/trunk mounted load and bike carriers, quality stamped by a DIN 75302 no less. Montblanc’s foray into the domestic market will be represented by its best-selling bike carrier the Barracuda. The Barracuda is sleek, aerodynamic and fast. The distinctive feature of the Mont Blanc Barracuda is that the wheels are locked in place in a molded profile, which holds the bicycle in an upright position. This means that you can use both hands when securing the wheels and frame. When the bicycle is attached to the frame holder, the bicycle holder is secured to the load carrier by a scientific blend of aluminum and steel. The Barracuda is compatible with most OEM and aftermarket roof racks and is easy to fit and secure to the load carrier. This bike carrier is easy to bolt on/off, pre-assembled and does not require tools for installation.
