How to install a roof bike rack

Fitting a bike rack is generally speaking, very easy and done in just a few minutes. If you want to buy a roof bike rack, it is essential that you have roof bars on your car. Roof bike carriers need to be mounted on the roof bars. Luckily roof bars come in all kind of different shapes and sizes and are in essence available for almost any car. Even when your car is not equipped with roof rails. Next to roof bike racks you can also find roof bars easily at Winparts. Is your new roof bike carrier securely attached to the roof bars? Then you can put your bike on the bike carrier and safely secure it. With most roof bike racks, the bike will be secured to the frame, at others you need to secure the bike using the front fork.

Which roof bike rack is the best?

When you think of buying a roof bike rack please make sure to pay attention to a couple of things. It is for example very important that the wheel rails of the carrier are wide enough for the tyres of your bike. Mountain bikes, in particular, have wider tyres, which means that they do not fit all wheel rails. Please also pay attention to the maximum loading capacity. The max. weight is the maximum load weight that the roof bike carrier can hold. This makes roof bike racks often not suitable for e-bikes. Electric bikes are often too heavy. If you are looking for a bike rack for e-bikes, then it is best to opt for a tow bar bike rack or a rear-mounted bike rack. These can often hold a higher load weight, making them more suitable for electric bikes.

Roof bike racks

Own a car without a tow bar? Or is your tow bar already being used by a trailer or caravan? A roof bike rack might be the perfect solution for you. They are very useful for transporting bicycles. A roof bike rack is just as the name suggests, mounted on the roof. With roof assembly, you can be sure that your bikes are transported safely. You do need roof bars though, to be able to mount the bike rack on your roof. Luckily, these are available for almost any car and can easily be found on our website. At Winparts you can also find rear-mounted bike racks and tow bar bike racks.
