Rack 'Em Up, Lock 'Em Down: Bike Roof Racks
A bike roof rack has quickly become one of the most essential add-ons for the outdoor enthusiast routinely faced with hauling bikes and an array of other gear to and from the great outdoors. Sure, you could remove the front wheel, rear wheel and chain to fit the bike into your cargo space. But in the time it takes you to do that (and reassemble it on the other end), you could be down the road with the city in your rear view. So instead of messing around, why not rack ‘em up and lock ‘em down?
Bike roof racks are incredibly popular for the dual safety and convenience they provide. They allow you to easily and securely transport bikes, boards and a cargo carrier full of your recreational gear to and from your destination, leaving extra leg room in the cab for passengers. A high-quality roof rack is forged from steel tubing and easily stands up to 300 lbs of evenly-distributed weight. They're finished in a tough black-powder coating that resists corrosion, providing a long life of reliable wear, and are personally-tailored to your specific make, model and year to provide a custom fit.
Unlike a rear-mounted bike rack that connects to a trailer hitch, roof racks–like the Thule bike rack, Honda Civic bike rack, Chevy Cobalt bike roof rack and Base rack systems–store your bikes safely and conveniently up and out of the way, ensuring that your gear won't block your vision or obstruct access to the rear of your vehicle.
The modern roof rack works with just about any cargo carrier system and features a snap-on mounting system for quick installation and simple removal for convenient storage between trips. This compatibility with rooftop carriers allows you to lock your belongings when you stop to stretch your legs or head out on the trail, protecting your valuables from thieves quickly and securely. Constructed from all-weather ABS, rooftop carriers come in three sizes, with up to 17 cubic feet of cargo room, and provide the added benefit of additional trunk space on the roof of your vehicle. Similar to those produced by Thule, Yakima cargo carriers provide an additional level of security and convenience, featuring spring-loaded hinges that allow you to open it from either side with just one hand and a cast-metal super latch with a built-in lock that automatically ensures a snug weatherproof seal.
If you tend to shy away from items that say "some assembly required," you're not alone. That's why a high-quality roof rack, like the Yakima bike rack, Toyota Prius bike rack and their companion cargo carriers, are designed for quick and easy installation and come complete with step-by-step instructions and all the necessary mounting hardware.
