If you’re tired of stuffing your bike in your back seat or trunk, perhaps it’s time you invested in a bike carrier. If you’ve got a base rack system already, you’re in good shape. Roof mounted carriers can be easily swapped out and roof rack systems allow for up to six bikes to be carried at once while still giving you access to the rear trunk. However, if you don’t have a base rack system, there’s no need to worry. There are a variety of other secure options for tow hitches, trunks, spare tires and trucks, so no matter what you drive and what your budget is, there’s a bike carrier here for you.     Roof Mount Bike Racks Roof mounted bike carriers are an excellent option for those with many interests and a lot of gear. A roof mounted bike carrying system is great because it allows you to carry the maximum number of bikes while in most cases still allowing easy access to the rear hatch or trunk. Another reason roof mounted carriers are great is because they can be used right alongside other accessory carriers, such as snow and water-sport carriers. A base rack system is recommended for roof mounted bike carriers, but not necessary if your vehicle comes with factory-installed crossbars. Hitch-Mount Bike Racks Hitch mounted bike carriers offer similar performance as roof mounted systems without the added effort of lifting your ride all the way up onto the roof. They offer low-level access to up to five bikes and be removed or installed in a matter of minutes. Many systems even feature designs that pivot to the side, enabling access to the rear hatch or trunk. Hitch mounted racks don’t present any of the height clearance issues that roof mounted systems can face, such as garage entrances, and can be installed on any vehicle with a tow hitch. Trunk-Mount Bike Racks Trunk mounted bike carriers are great for the rider on a budget. They’re an inexpensive way to carry up to three bikes safely and securely, and their value is stretched even further by the fact that they fit a wide variety of different vehicles, making them a great solution for riders who need a rack that easily fits more than one vehicle. Trunk mounted racks can also be a good supplement for those times when you manage to fill up all the real estate on your roof rack system. Spare Tire-Mount Bike Racks If you’ve got a spare tire on the rear of your vehicle, and you’re looking for an affordable option to carry a couple bikes, you should consider a spare tire mounted rack. They offer the same easy low level access that trunk and hitch mounted racks give, and like hitch mounted racks, the arms fold down when not in use to keep a low profile. Pick-up Truck Bed Bike Racks Pick-up truck bed mounted carriers are a great way for those who drive a truck to get a bike carrier that offers the stability of roof mounted carriers that often don’t fit on the roof of a truck cab. Both upright and fork mount styles are available and both keep your bike organized in the bed, giving you more room to carry other gear and providing easy access to up to four bikes.   Site-wide Sale on Thule 10%OFF All Thule Product (Excludes cargo boxes) What could be better than outfitting your vehicle with a rack system made by one of the industry's top manufacturers?
