Fit your vehicleIn the past, hanging style hitch racks were the conventional method for transporting bicycles. However, with the introduction of diverse bike frame designs, these racks became less practical to use. Nonetheless, if you own a classic men's bike with a horizontal top tube, these hitch racks are an excellent choice for transporting your bikes from one location to another. Moreover, if your top tube has a downward slope, you can still use these racks with the utilization of a bike frame adapter. These hitch racks are typically available in 2, 4, and 5 bike capacities, and Yakima and Thule provide numerous options that can be tailored to your specific needs.

"Good customer service"
"I ordered a roof rack that was defective. Kurt in customer service worked with me to get it replaced with an option that worked. I was actually surprised to get a human on the phone/email when communicating about the issue. All was resolved within a few days. Will do business again."
