The Thule Big Mouth accommodates bike frames up to 3.125-inches in diameter, fits both Thule and Yakima load bars, and features a dual-locking design that simultaneously locks the bike to the carrier and the carrier to the rack. This bicycle carrier system is constructed with a black anodized aluminum wheel tray that is built to last, and can be customized with 790 Tray skins. The 599XTR weighs 10.5 pounds in total, and is compatible with the Thule One-Key System (not included), and can be locked securely with a single lock cylinder.

great!
This bike rack was easy to install, and it is easy to use. No need to take off a wheel, the bike is very secure up there.You do need to have the thule roof rack to use this bike rack. It's just the bike rack, not the roof bars.

EASY TO UNSTALL AND USE!!!
This bicycle carrier is awesome. It folds down when not in use. It is very easy to attach a bicycle to it. We like our a lot.

Great item, needs modification
This bike rack works well once it is mounted. The description of the item did not mention that it needed to be mounted on the Thule roof rack adapter. I ordered only the bike rack. I hoped that the rack would mount directly to my Toyota Rav4's factory roof rack. I've since been looking at other factory roof racks, and have noticed that most of them have airplane wing-like bars which go from side to side. These bars are about three inches in width, and the hardware on the Big Mouth Bike Rack is set up to fit the Thule adapter, which has bars little more than an inch in width. Instead of ordering the adapter, I spent a day tooling my own mounting hardware. This gives the bike rack a much cleaner look, and sets the rack and bike closer to the roof, making it easier to load and unload. The second problem is that the end caps come off much too easily. Other than these problems, the rack works well, and is easy to load and unload.

Great to have, but it is just about Winter in Vermont
The back rooftop carriers look like they will be perfect when spring arrives. Well constructed like everything from Thule.
