On which models are SeaSucker roof racks used often?

SeaSucker roof racks can be fitted on any type of car, but mainly on lease cars of the brands Volvo, Tesla, Skoda, Volkswagen etc., and sports cars. These cars have a larger roof and therefore have enough space to place the bikes on it. SeaSucker's roof bicycle carriers are therefore ideal for this type of car, but of course for all types of cars.

Where to put the front wheel?

The bicycles are fixed to the bicycle carrier by means of the front fork of the bicycle. In order to mount the bicycle, the front wheel has to be removed from the bicycle. But where do you put the front wheel? SeaSucker has developed the SeaSucker Flight Deck for this purpose. This allows you to place the front wheel on the roof of the car. The rear wheel of the bicycle is mounted on the right side and there is room for the front wheel on the left side.
