Subaru Legacy four door bike racks attached to factory bars using two Rocky Mounts Tie Rod bike racks.
If you have factory bars on your vehicle, all you need are bike racks that will fit directly to them. This Subaru Legacy bike rack set up is using the Subaru Legacy factory bars to support two Rocky Mount Tie Rod bike racks. A four pack of Rocky Mounts locks takes care of the security business–that’s two locks for each tray: one to lock the tray to the crossbar and one to lock the fork skewer.

RockyMounts TieRod bike rack
ORS Racks Direct takes a good look at the all-new RockyMounts TieRod factory rack mounting bike rack. With many new features and sleek, aerodynamic design styling, the Rocky Mounts TieRod greatly improves on the very successful RockyMounts Noose SL (now discontinued) factory rack bike rack. The redesigned fork block head is very low-profile and quickly mounts to any factory rack crossbars (Also works on Yakima round cross bars and square cross bars from Thule, Inno etc., but the RockyMounts PitchFork bike rack is instead recommended for these aftermarket car rack crossbars.) Also includes the innovative and easy to use locking quick release skewer from RockyMounts. Dual locking options to lock the TieRod to the roof rack and the bicycle to the carrier. Disc brake compatible, no adapters needed. Fits both skinny road tires and super-fat mountain bike tires. Many color options to choose from, from black to white and a rainbow of colors in between.

Photo of the all-new RockyMounts TieRod bike rack used as a Mazda Protege 5 bike roof rack that mounts directly to the Mazda Protege5 factory rack crossbars.
Improving on the popular universal mounting, factory rack compatible RockyMounts Noose bike rack, the RockyMounts Bike Rack Company has recently released the super stylish, sexy and easier-than-ever to use RockyMounts TieRod bike rack for mounting to factory racks. The picture above shows two TieRods mounted to the Mazda Protege 5 factory rack crossbars. Each TieRod can also use 2 Rocky Mounts Locks to both lock the bike to the TieRod and the carrier itself to the roof rack. The models shown in the picture above are the classic black color, but you also have the choice of all kids of flavorful colors with the RockyMount TieRod bike racks.

Photo featuring a 2003 Toyota 4-Runner roof basket and bike carriers setup using the Yakima MegaWarrior baasket and two RockyMounts PitchFork bike racks.
A car roof rack mount gear basket is a superb option that offers versatile solutions for carrying many items besides camping equipment and cargo-luggage gear. The picture above shows a 2003 Toyota 4Runner roof basket with two bike racks attached to the gear basket. The Yakima MegaWarrior roof basket is mounted directly to the 2003 Toyota 4Runner factory rack cross bars. The neat thing about the MegaWarrior is that the basket, itself, has a pair of integrated cross bars also. This allows for the attachment of all kinds of gear carriers right to the basket. In this case 2 RockyMounts PitchFork bike racks are mounted to the MegaWarrior basket crossbars. You can still place all your cargo-luggage gear, camping equipment in the basket while the bike carriers and bicycles are installed and loaded on.

This picture demonstrates the use of the Yakima Q Towers roofrack and RockyMounts Pitchfork bike rack (2 carriers) used as a 2007 Toyota Prius bicycle roof rack. A wind fairing is also attached.
RockyMounts bike racks are an excellent, lower cost alternative for those interested in a fork mount style bicycle carrier (the front wheel is removed and the bike fork attaches to the bike rack quick release skewer). The photo above shows a 2007 Toyota Prius bike roof rack that uses two RockyMounts Pitchfork bike rack carriers attached to the Yakima Q Towers car rack multi-purpose base rack system (Q Towers mount to the Toyota Prius car top using a pair of Yakima Q124 clips and a pair of Yakima Q5 clips; two Yakima 58 inch cross bars are also used; these components are all included with the Yakima Q Tower complete roof rack system). Also a large size 44 inch Yakima rack fairing is connected to the front base rack crossbar.

Great picture of a 2008 VW GTI bike roof rack with Thule 400XT base rack system and Rocky Mounts Pitchfork bike racks.
Here is a good example of how a roof rack system can add some serious style points to an already stylish car. This 2008 VW GTI had nothing on the rooftop before we installed the Thule 400XT roof rack system and then slapped on a couple low profile, red Rocky Mounts Pitchforks. The customer was a bit hesitant to change the look of his ride, but when he took one look at the finished product he was very satisfied.
