Bike Racks, Carriers & Storage

What Types of Bike Racks & Carriers Can I Find at Anaconda?

There are three commonly used bike rack mounting systems: hitch mount, boot/trunk mount and roof mount, each with specific advantages and available in a range of styles. Before choosing a bike storage rack system or car bike rack, you will need to consider vehicle compatibility including roof rack dimensions, tow ball size and the design of your vehicle. Consider the number of mountain bikes or road bikes you are expecting to transport, along with the frequency of bike rack use. Anaconda provides both budget and high-end bike rack storage solutions for all types of vehicles, allowing you to load bikes on the roof racks or bicycle rack with ease.

Hitch Mount

If you and your household are keen cyclists needing to carry multiple bikes, a rear-mounted hitch bike rack attached to your tow ball is a great car bike rack option. Hitch racks are very easy to install and incredibly sturdy. Hitch mount locking systems ensure that security is not an issue. Hitch racks can attach to a regular sedan or 4WD vehicle. Easily attached to your tow bar, this system is ideal for people who don't want to transport bicycles on the roof of the vehicle. At a price that can't be beaten, hitch mount systems have lots of additional advantages worth investigating:

• Tilting mechanism for convenient rear-of-vehicle access.
• Anti-sway cradles that eliminate bike-to-bike contact.
• Enhanced strapping for superior hitch mount stability while on the road.
• Optional bike carrier locking system for total security.

Boot/Trunk Mount

These racks are designed to rest on the back of a ute, hatchback, sedan, wagon, minivan or utility vehicle. They are often the preferred option for use on cars without a tow bar or tow ball using special bike rack arms and cradles to keep bikes securely in place. Ideal for the recreational cyclist, boot/trunk-mounted bike racks are adjustable for a range of vehicles. They are portable, easily removed when not in use and have some great benefits such as:

• Non-skid rubber feet that protect your vehicle and bicycles.
• Secure straps, hooks and adaptors for convenient transportation.
• Compact bike carrier folding design for space-saving storage when not in use.
• Limited lifetime bike rack warranty against manufacturing defects.

Roof Mount

This can be the best system for people who don't mind lifting bikes on top of a vehicle. Roof mount bike racks are extremely versatile and you can even build your own roof rack system for establishing precise mounting points. Versatility extends beyond carrying bikes, with roof racks also used for safely transporting fishing rods, kayaks and other outdoor adventure gear. They can feature:

• Attachable to most vehicles with a custom fitting kit (sold separately).
• Lockability for additional safety and security.
• Integrated tie down points.
