This trike rack is the perfect solution for carrying a 3-wheeler on your vehicle's roof if you don't already have a roof rack installed. Vacuum cups attach in seconds to the roof, trunk, or glass on your car, SUV, van, motorhome, or trailer. Because it doesn't require a permanent installation, it's great for transporting your trike when you're traveling by rental car. And if you're worried that vacuum cups won't stay attached to your vehicle, you can rest assured because each vacuum cup provides 210 lbs of suction, giving you a total of 1,050 lbs of pull strength. Your trike isn't going anywhere! Additionally, the rack stores easily in your trunk or garage when not in use, or in your suitcase while traveling.
Scratch-Resistant Vacuum Cups
SeaSucker vacuum cups are designed to install on your vehicle without causing dents or scratches. They will attach to most non-porous surfaces including metal, glass, and fiberglass. Each 6" cup is rated to hold up to 210 lbs. The housing and plunger are constructed of durable plastic with rustproof stainless-steel hardware, and the rubber pad is UV resistant up to 5 years. The included Lube Tube lets you keep the plungers in working condition.
Easy Installation, Setup, and Removal
To install the rack, make sure the mounting surface is clean, moisten the surface of each cup, place the rack on your roof, trunk, or window glass, then press each plunger several times until the orange bands disappear. Place your trike's side tires on each side wheel carrier in the clamp arm trays and secure them with the hook-and-loop straps. Depending on the surface they're mounted to and the load being put on them, suction in the cups will decrease over time. Make sure to check the plungers before you get into your vehicle. When you see the orange indicator bands show simply re-pump the plungers.
The crank arm strap prevents your pedal from hitting your roof and scratching your vehicle. Rotate your trike's crank arm parallel with the chain stay and wrap the hook-and-loop crank arm strap around both.
Place the front vacuum cup where your front tire sits, pump the plunger until the orange bands disappear, then wrap the hook-and-loop strap around the tire to secure it in place.
To break the seal on each cup and remove the rack from your vehicle, simply pull the T-shaped tabs up and towards the center of the cups - it's that easy. Remove the side and front vacuum cups and store them in your trunk or garage, or put them in a storage bag or suitcase to take with you.

- Bike Rack That Will Work with a TrikeThere used to be an adapter that allowed you to use the Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # HR1450Z to carry a trike. But that adapter is no longer available. The only rack we currently carry that is compatible with a trike is the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005 which is a vacuum cup style rack that would attach to your vehicles roof.
view full answer... - Will the SeaSucker Work to Carry a Tadpole Trike on a 2016 Hyundai TucsonI looked at some pictures of the 2016 Hyundai Tucson roof and it appears that you would be able to place the SeaSucker Roof Bike Rack for Trikes # 298-BD1005 so as to avoid those raised sections in the roof. The larger two sections of this system measure 13 inches long and 6 inches wide. They will mount to the roof long ways so you can measure the space you have between those raised sections in the roof as well as the width between the rear wheels on the trike (measured from the center...
view full answer... - Hitch-Mount Trike Carrier for 1-1/4-Inch Class II HitchI understand your predicament, having a hitch and hitch bike rack that will not work together. Smaller vehicles typically accept smaller hitches, and for your 2018 Ford EcoSport compact SUV only 1-1/4-inch Class II hitches are offered since the car itself cannot handle the load that a 2-inch Class III hitch typically can. We offer 1-1/4-inch Draw-Tite # 36660 and Curt # C12188 hitches both of which are rated for 350-lbs of tongue weight. Hitch adapters like # HTAD, # HT5R, and # C45785...

They did say that there are a lot of covers that will allow it to work with, but the surface of your BakFlip did look a little "abrasive". The only other option would be installing the SeaSucker on the roof of your truck, as there is no other good way to transport an adult trike.

- How to Carry a Trike and Regular Bike on a 2017 Ford EscapeI do have an option for you, but unfortunately there is not a single rack option that will carry both a trike and regular bike. Instead you can use the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005 for your trike and a single bike rack like the Inno Tire Hold Bike Rack for 1 Bike # INH110 for your regular bike. The SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005 will attach to the roof of your 2017 Ford Escape and the Inno Tire Hold Bike Rack for 1 Bike # INH110 will go into your 2" hitch...
view full answer... - Options For Carrying A Trike On The Roof Of A 2018 Subaru OutbackI do have a potential solution for you, but we do not offer any kind of roof rack mount for a trike. According to the online owners manual for a FAT TAD electric trike, the wheelbase is around 59", which would be much too long to fit on most roof racks. Also it weighs about 57 lbs. Not to underestimate your abilities, but I see it being difficult to get a trike like that on to the roof of a car. Maybe with two people it would be easier, but it would be far from ideal. If you are set on...
view full answer... - Can I Carry Trike with 2 Bike CarrierI do not recommend carrying a trike on a rack designed for bikes. Besides safety issues, a normal bike rack will likely not be long enough. However I have a solution for you. We have the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005. This rack is made in the USA and uses vacuum cups to mount to the roof of your car, allowing you to carry your trike.

The SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005 is made in the USA and uses vacuum cups to mount to the roof of your car, allowing you to carry your trike. You can position the rear wheel holders where needed to accommodate your 27"-30" wheel spread.

view full answer... - Bike Rack Needed to Transport a Recumbent TrikeI do have a few options for you to carry a recumbent trike on your SUV. The first option would be to use the SeaSucker Roof Bike Rack for Trikes # 298-BD1005. You will simply need to place the Vacuum Cups in the appropriate places on your roof and pump them up until the orange band disappears. This has a 45 lbs weight capacity. Another option would be to use the Yakima Boa Roof Mounted Bike Carrier # Y02065 on your roof rack. For this to be compatible with your trike you will also need...
view full answer... - Is there a Bike Rack for an Electric Trike?No, I am sorry we do not have any sort of rack that will work with an electric trike. The one roof rack option we have for a trike is item # 298-BD1005 and it is limited to 45 lbs of capacity.
view full answer... - Options for Carrying a Trike with a 2013 Hyundai ElantraI'm not sure how your current hitch failed but the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11303 is rated for 200 lbs of tongue weight so you will be able to safely use this with the 44 lb Hollywood Racks Sport Rider Bike Rack for 1 Recumbent or 1 Trike # HR1000Z-R-TRKADP to carry your 85 lb tadpole trike. The only way that this would fail is if your 2013 Hyundai Elantra isn't rated for 129 lbs of tongue weight and the trailer hitch physically disconnected from your vehicle because of the tongue weight.

- What Are My Options to Be Able to Carry a Trike and E-Bike Together? Well I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but there is nothing out that is capable of doing that unfortunately. Right now, the only trike bike rack we carry is the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005 which is designed to carry only one 3-wheeled trike and nothing else. As For an e-bike carrier, we have a bit more options and you'd be able to use something like the RockyMounts MonoRail Solo Bike Rack for 1 Bike # RKY10007, which can handle one e-bike weighing 60-lbs.

This can handle up to 4,250lbs which will cover your Prius' curb weight of 3,365lbs. The dolly weighs 545lbs so the combined weight will still be under the 5,000lb towing capacity of your motorhome. This dolly has integrated electric brakes so you will want to make sure you have a brake controller in your motorhome. If you do not have...

So, this really leaves you with one of two options. 1. You could use the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005, which would mount to the roof, and only has a weight capacity of 45lbs. Or 2. You could also use the Detail K2 Mighty Multi Utility Trailer # K2MMT4X6, which is a small trailer measuring 156-1/2" long including the trailer...

As of right now, the only trike rack we have is the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005 which is roof mounted and can hold one trike weighing 45lbs. I'm not aware of any trike/e-bike racks that let you carry both on the same platform so your best would be to stick them inside the trailer if you have room or use a cargo carrier like...

This hitch-mounted carrier is compatible with the 2 inch receiver on your Lexus and can handle 1 trike of up to 100 pounds.

- Recommended Trike Rack for a 2019 Lincoln MKCI have a great option for you to transport your JC26X tadpole-style recumbent trike, but I do not recommend using the Softride Hang2 2-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # SR27041. Setting aside the potential issue of ground clearance hitch height with your hitch, the Softride Hang2 requires front handlebars to mount to the clamps at the top. Since we have not fitted a recumbent-style bike on the clamps there is no way to confirm whether the clamps will adequately secure at any point of...

- Will the Thule Passage Trunk Mount Bike Rack Fit a 2010 Honda Accord CrosstourThe Thule Passage trunk mount bike rack # TH910XT is a fit for your 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour. I have included a link to a video review of this bike rack for you to view. However, the Passage is not meant to carry a trike. To be able to carry a trike you will need to use the SeaSucker Trike Rack for 1 Trike # 298-BD1005, which is a roof mount style. It uses vacuum cups to mount and will allow you to carry your trike.
