How to Install the Pegboard Ski Adapter to Your Neo-2 Bike Rack

Transforming your Neo-2 hitch bicycle rack into a winter sports carrier with the Pegboard ski adapter is straightforward. Follow these step-by-step instructions for a secure and reliable setup:

1. Prepare the Rack

• Begin by confirming that your Neo-2 hitch mount two-bike rack is securely mounted to your vehicle’s hitch. Make sure the hitch pin is tightened using the NoMotion™ Hitch Pin to eliminate any wobbling.

• Use the straps included with the Pegboard to secure your items. Ensure the straps are tightened enough to prevent movement but not so tight as to damage your equipment.
• If you're carrying multiple pairs of skis or snowboards, you can mount multiple pegboards onto one side of the Neo-2 to fit more gear.

4. Double-Check Stability

• Perform a final inspection before hitting the road. Gently shake the Pegboard and your mounted gear to check for any loose bolts or unsecured straps.
• Verify that all locking mechanisms are engaged and that no part of your gear obstructs your rear lights or license plate.
