Ten Second Bracket™

How to Use

• 

  STEP 1 - Insert Ten Second Bracket™ through slots and holes in Romeo RIM HELP® bumper.

  A collaborative design and engineering project between Sportworks and Romeo RIM has made the task of installing Bike-Racks-for-Buses™ quick and easy.  The OEM fabricated slots in the HELP® bumper module, and the high strength aluminum beam in the bumper, permit quick and easy installation with no tools required. Best of all, the original OEM bumper warranty is not affected.
  
  The TSB system uses a pre-loading concept that, with some assistance from gravity, securely engages the top slots of the bracket.  This allows the unit to be vibration free and tight as a drum.  Minimizing the movement of the bracket at the contact point ensures noiseless travel and also greatly reduces long-term wear and possible material fatigue.

• 

  STEP 2 - Tighten the hand knob to secure the bolt into the threaded holes in the aluminum beam of the HELP® bumper.

  Minimizing the time and eliminating the tools needed to install the transit rack were our most important design objectives.  We achieved this goal by developing mounting hardware that can be easily, quickly and firmly secured by hand. 

  The knob is connected to a long bolt that fits through the mounting bracket and is threaded into the high strength aluminum beam of the HELP® bumper.  A clevis pin engages through a hole in the hand knob to prevent it from loosening.  The TSB system provides a convenient and practical solution for towing, bus garage parking density issues or seasonal use of Bike-Racks-for-Buses™.
