Introducing the G.O.A.T Series Mercedes Receiver Front Bumper: Your Overlanding Companion
Discover the G.O.A.T Series Receiver Front Bumper by Backland E.G, crafted for outdoor adventurers who demand the best. In other words, our bumper is designed for real-world conditions, from rough terrain to harsh weather. This covert-style bumper is designed to be lightweight while providing essential protection for the most critical parts of your van—the radiator, oil pan, and engine.
Built for Adventure
Our G.O.A.T (Goes Over All Terrain) Series Mercedes Receiver front bumper is your passport to outdoor exploration. Without a doubt, it's tough, stylish, and built to handle any challenge.
The G.O.A.T. Receiver Bumper offers similar capacity to a Class 3 trailer hitch, providing exceptional sturdiness and a higher tongue weight capacity of approximately 500 pounds. It’s perfect for towing small trailers or boats, as well as mounting cargo carriers or bike racks.
To address a frequently asked question about whether our receiver bumper can carry motorcycles, here’s what we have to say: Motorcycles vary greatly, from a 1200 GS to a pit bike, and the roads you might travel with them are just as diverse. For these reasons and also because there are many different bike racks, we do not provide a specific load rating for carrying motor bikes.
That said, we are confident the bumper can handle a 125cc bike or several mountain bikes (including e-bikes) on rough roads. However, we haven’t conducted testing beyond this point. Your best judgment is essential when determining its suitability for your specific needs.
