This roof-mounted bike rack doesn't come into contact with your bike's frame and is perfect for carbon fiber frames. The rack is compatible with all types of bikes, from mountain bikes to fat bikes. Plus, it's easy to load and secure, all without removing the bike's front wheel. Mounting the Thule UpRide to the sides of your car is quick, easy, and secure. Because all loading takes place at roof level, the rack is convenient for use on any vehicle, and for cyclists of all heights. To protect against theft, the rack can be locked to the car, and the bike can be secured to the rack with an integrated cable lock.
