I have used others and this hands down is the best. Very stable for LONG road trips ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it *by C***R on August 21, 2023* Not much more I can say about it except that I wish that it did cost as much as it did. It's very sturdy, easy to load and unload. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Elegant solution, still a little fiddly *by B***S on February 11, 2025* Purchased a used one on Amazon to save money. The previous buyer had graciously included all the hardware in ziploc bag, which was much appreciated :) Instructions were not included and ended up not being needed; everything fits together with very little guesswork required. I'm going to be using this on the aero bars that came with my Forester, which do not have the Thule groove, so I'll be using the clamps. When you go to put the clamps through the plastic housings, there's one spot where they're certainly meant to be used, and another that would almost certainly cause catastrophic failure. The difference is how much "meat" there is that's supporting the force of the clamp. When stored, off the car, up and out of the way, it's good to let the clamps dangle from their secondary position, but when installed on the cross bars, care must be taken to ensure you're putting the clamp in its clamping position. Again, no manual, just me guessing that using the part where there's very thin plastic is NOT where to clamp it to the vehicle when traveling down the highway at 70 MPH with a $6000 bike up there. Could be wrong. I did not expect to have to purchase an add-on to carry a through-axle bike... it says right on the box it carries drop out and through-axle bikes, but the part needed to carry a through axle bikes will set you back an additional fifty bones. Irritating, but that's the bike industry for ya. On the whole, it's a neat product. It won't be as easy to use as a hitch rack, but carrying a bike by its top-tube is SO "Department Store". I'll update this review once I've actually used the thing, but initial impressions put my doubts at ease; I was concerned that the solution to securing this carrier to rails that don't use Thule's channel would be hokey, but it seems quite robust. Nice, hardened hardware used. The cam over latch seems pretty sturdy and the thread pitch helps ensure you get the perfect tightness without over-tightening. It does not feel like the latch will up and un-latch itself. I do not intend to buy the locking kit to go with it. Once the thing is assembled and the pieces are in place, it can be installed to the car and removed from the car in about a minute. Very cool. You can store it up in your garage's rafters with the rack rails wen you're not using it :) Why not five stars? Does not include the part needed to carry modern bicycles with through-axles, and they instead used it an an opportunity to charge their customers $50 for a piece of cast steel and some plastic spacers. I figure I saved about that much by buying it used, so it's a wash, but still very Thule of them. ## Frequently Bought Together - Thule FastRide Roof Mounted Bike Rack - Thule One-Key System Lock Cylinders - Thule FastRide 9-15mm Axle Adapter Kit --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hr/products/283766008-fastride-roof-mounted-bike-rack](https://www.desertcart.hr/products/283766008-fastride-roof-mounted-bike-rack) --- *Product available on Desertcart Croatia* *Store origin: HR* *Last updated: 2026-05-15*
