Roof Rack Mounted

Roof Rack Mounted Bike Carriers from Holdfast

Mount your bikes directly to your roof rack with Holdfast’s range of roof-mounted bike carriers. Designed for use with Holdfast crossbars, these carriers hold bikes securely at roof level — keeping the boot free and your rear visibility unobstructed.

Designed and manufactured in South Africa, the carriers are engineered for the conditions local cyclists deal with: long distances, dusty back roads, and the kind of driving that separates a well-made carrier from a cheap one. Fork-mount options secure the front fork directly to the crossbar for a rattle-free ride.

When Does a Roof-Mounted Carrier Make Sense?

If you already have a Holdfast roof rack fitted, adding a bike carrier to your existing crossbars is the most cost-effective way to carry bikes. Roof-mounted carriers leave rear visibility clear and are ideal for road bikes where frame-contact mounting isn’t appropriate.

• Fork mount design for road and mountain bikes
• Compatible with standard Holdfast crossbars
• Lower wind drag compared to upright frame carriers
• Easy on/off when your roof rack is already installed
• Designed and manufactured in South Africa
