TRAILER HITCH RACKS

Effortless to attach and detach, hitch bike racks minimize the effort needed for bike lifting and adjustment. These racks offer a broad range of options, encompassing frame contact, zero frame contact, tilt, and swing styles. Since various bikes require different rack types, consulting with an expert is recommended to identify the most suitable rack for your specific bike.

 

ROOF RACKS FOR BIKES

Roof-mounted bike racks offer two main types: the “wheel on” and the “fork mount.” The “wheel on” rack secures the bike via both front and rear wheels, while the “fork mount” necessitates removing the front wheel, securing the bike via the rear wheel and a fork attachment. One significant advantage of choosing a roof rack is its non-interference with your rearview mirror, allowing you to set it up and drive worry-free. However, using a roof rack involves lifting the bikes into place.

The ongoing Thule versus Yakima debate remains constant, and at the Cochrane Hitch Shop, we value the unique qualities of both brands. Selecting the right rack primarily depends on personal preference, and our experts are ready to assist you in finding the ideal rack for your needs.
