Best Bike Rack For Rhino-Rack Roof Rack For Bikes w/ Quick Release Skewer & Thru-Axle
Question:
Hi. For the Rhino Roc25 rack. What bike mount do you recommend? I have a 29” mountain bike. 2.5” wide tires. I would to use a fork mount and it has a thru axle. But I have another bike with a quick release skewer. So having both options would be great. Thank you. Also the bike is about 30 lbs.

We can meet all your needs for a roof-mounted bike rack to go with the Rhino-Rack ROC25 Roof Rack # RR23QR, and the best option to do that is from Kuat. The rack will work with both your bikes because it has a 3-way fork mount system that allows you to carry bikes with a 9-mm quick-release skewer, a 15-mm thru-axle fork, or a 20-mm thru-axle fork. The Trio is available in your choice of two different colors:
- Gunmetal Gray: Kuat Trio Roof Bike Rack # RU01
- Black and Polished Chrome: Kuat Trio Roof Bike Rack # TR02
The Trio also has a 45 lb weight capacity, fits tires up to 4" wide, and has an integrated cable lock to keep your bikes safe. It's also made from aluminum so it's really light (7 lbs) and easy to handle, not to mention totally rustproof.
And finally, aside from being high-quality, the Trio stands out in one other way, which is its aesthetic. Kuat has a reputation for making their racks look fantastic, and the Trio meets that standard.
