Designed and manufactured by riders for riders right here in Australia, our racks are simple and quick to load and unload, giving you more time on the trails. With the capacity to carry up to six bikes and its contact free design, rest assured that your expensive frames and components won’t receive any shuttle love (damage) from their neighbours. We use only the highest quality materials, manufacturing standards and laser cut components to build Dirty Possum racks, giving you peace of mind knowing that your bikes are securely held in place no matter the road conditions. All racks come standard with an anti-vibration plate to stop that unwanted noise and movement.

Perfect for tour operators, group rides and big families. Constructed of heavy-duty steel, our first-ever vertical bike rack carries more bikes in less space, so you can safely haul up to six mountain bikes to the trailhead. We designed and tested it in the lab and on the road to meet our demanding Yakima standards. The easy-to-operate tilt mechanism with three adjustable mast angles keep your bikes from bumping into your car, ute or SUV and makes accessing the tailgate a breeze.

If your car has a 2" hitch the Allen 542QR Deluxe 4 Bike Hitch Mounted Rack will allow you to safely and securely carry up to 4 bikes. This rack uses a locking, quick install hitch insert which tightens inside the receiver for a secure fit that will prevent excessive movement when bikes are loaded. The arms can be folded out of the way to reduce the profile of the rack when no bikes are loaded and the whole rack can tilt out of the way to allow for access to the boot of the car. The cradles have individual tie-downs for each bike for easy installation of a variety of frame shapes.

Thule ProRide 598 Silver Bike Rack

The ProRide 598 is perhaps the most popular bike carrier in the world, and the original ProRide 591 proved itself to be a brilliant design. The ProRide 598 has improved on that to become a genuinely outstanding bike carrier. 

Thule made several improvements, including a new tool-free design that allows users to easily switch the carrier from passenger to driver's side in minutes.

The frame holder has also improved. The soft pads of the claw spread pressure evenly on the frame, and the extended lower jaw gives greater stability while loading and driving. The torque limiter dial provides the correct pressure to be placed on the frame, providing excellent stability while minimising the chances of damaging your frame's finish. The new design of the frame holder and wheel trays allows the bike to be automatically positioned when you secure the bike. 

Available in silver or black, and both models have a class-leading 20kg bike load limit.
