Thule 599XTR Big Mouth Upright Rooftop Bicycle Carrier Review
The Big Mouth Upright Rooftop Bicycle Carrier is designed for ease of use and dependable stability on a budget. The Big Mouth fits all Thule rack systems, as well as other round bars, is compatible with the Thule Aero profile with an additional adapter (sold separately) and most bikes with disc brakes. The key factors in the stability that the Big Mouth provides is the combination of its sturdy wheel tray which holds your bike wheels, the two cinchable wheel straps that quickly secure the wheels to the tray and most importantly the center support's jaw like grip on your bike's central frame.
Stabilizing of the center support and adjusting of the Big Mouth's jaws are controlled by a simple combination of moving the release handle to the closed position and pulling down the slider. As pressure is applied to the frame tube the jaws adjust automatically to just the right amount of pressure for optimal holding power. Both the release handle and slider are located on a single leg of the center support of the Big Mouth making one-handed locking functionality possible, while the other hand balances the bike on the wheel tray.

It wasn't long before he added other practical items to the company's portfolio. By the 1960s, the company began to concentrate on car-related products, including its first roof rack. The Thulin family sold Thule to the publicly listed company Eldon in 1979, and it has continued to grow both organically and through acquisitions ever since. The Thule Group is a world leader in providing transport solutions for an active life.

Thule Sidearm Rooftop Upright Bike Carrier Review
The Thule Sidearm Rooftop Upright Bike Carrier is the convenient and easy way to secure your bike on your roof without worrying about scratches to the bike or car. Designed to ensure that all connections between your bike and the carrier are via the edge of your tires, it utilizes a simple a one-armed locking ratchet mechanism, along with a rugged wheel tray to quickly clamp your bike into place. This frees up your other hand to stabilize the bike as necessary. Additional features include: compatibility virtually any rack system and all bikes with a wheel diameter of 20-29 inches and tires up to 2.6 inches wide, and installation configurations for both passenger and driver's side.
The whole idea behind rooftop bike carriers is to provide the rider with ease of access to the most fully assembled bike possible once you get to your destination, but many carriers use mechanisms that require an awkward connection to your frame, or even force you to remove the front wheel. The result of this can be a struggle to hold the bike up as you fiddle with the carrier's locking mechanism at the same time. The Thule Sidearm Rooftop Upright Bike Carrier changes all that.
The Thule Sidearm Rooftop Upright Bike Carrier provides a solid, easy to use and secure bike transport system that ensures maximum bike and car protection as all its components make contact with wheel only. The sidearm carrier is designed for individual bikes with 20-29 inch wheels and tire widths up to 2.6 inches wide. To secure a bike it utilizes the combination of a rugged wheel tray which snugly holds the tires of both wheels, a wheel strap to secure the rear wheel to the tray and a combination of a locking ratchet arm with patented SecureHook technology and a wheel loop that the front tire braces against. To use, position the ratchet arm and hook assembly in a forward and fully extended position, then lift the bike up and into the wheel tray, ensuring that the front wheel precedes the wheel loop. Next, with one hand holding the bike stable, use your other hand to rotate the support arm of the SecureHook to just above the tire and ratchet the arm tightly against the wheel. You should hear a a few clicks past initial contact with the tire that lets you know that your bike is clamped down good and tight. Lastly, cinch down the back tire to the wheel tray using the wheel strap. That's all there is to it. The Thule Sidearm also can secure your bike to the carrier and carrier to the rack with two locks (sold separately).

Allen Deluxe 3-Bike Trunk Mount Rack Review
About Allen Bike Racks
In 1967, after a few years of working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Dick Allen was out of a job. Government cutbacks led Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist, to transform his garage hobby into a new industry. A cycling enthusiast, inventor, and family man, Allen had a personal need for a bike-carrying device. On weekends, he would take his sons and wife to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire. What proved difficult time and again was the transport of his family’s bicycles. Rather than fight through inconvenience with twine and a dinged car, Allen sought an answer for himself as well as a market in which he foresaw major growth possibilities.
Always a pathfinder, Allen took to work in his Lincoln, Massachusetts garage in search of a more efficient way to transport bikes. Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, he put together a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding). At first, the Allens tested the prototype on weekend excursions. Finding the first trunk-mounted rack to be a success, Dick started Allen Bike Racks. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971 Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors. Today, the company owns over three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks while Dick’s son Alex now owns and operates the business. What started out as a small garage run operation now operates three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and has products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world.
