Amazon.com Product Description
Need a sweet upright bike mount that doesn't deplete your budget? Turn to the Yakima Raptor bicycle carrier, which holds a single bike on the roof of your car. Designed to hold bikes with 1- to 3-inch diameter downtubes, the Raptor fits both round and square crossbars, including factory crossbars when paired with Yakima Mighty Mounts or Universal Mighty Mounts (sold separately). Once you've secured the downtube, it's easy to keep the bike stable for the entire trip, with ratcheting wheel straps that keep the tires in place. And thanks to the versatile design, the Raptor has no problem handling disc brakes or thru axles. The end result? Plenty of leftover cash for life's other necessities, such as inner tubes, cheap brews, and ramen noodles. All Yakima bike mounts carry a limited lifetime warranty.

Customer Reviews

Works as promised
Product is sturdy and of high quality. Assembling it is relatively straightforward. I used it and was satisfied with ease of mounting and dismounting of bikes.
The only caveat is with regards to the clips that connect it to the root rack. They fit square or round profile racks but not the elongated type. For these you would need to order the "mighty clips" (check it out before you do)

Nice Rack
This rack is very good. Works good on my bike and vehicle. Very well recommended.

Great option for zen buddhists
- With no provision for locking the carrier to the load bars, this rack will help you forgo your attachment to material possessions.
- You'll have plenty of time for meditation as you turn the knob that (eventually) closes the clamp on the bike.
- You'll even learn a new koan: "Why did Yakima make it so hard to get the bike on the rack?"
