Thule’s three bike ClipOn carrier has metal straps so that, once adjusted, it’s very easy to put on and take off. It isn’t a high mount carrier, so a lighting board will almost always be required. With rubber frameholders to hold the bikes apart, and a protective plastic coating on all parts which touch the car.

This is the replacement for the 9102 carrier which won a BEST BUY AWARD in Auto Express in 2001; the main difference is that the new 9104 is silver coloured.

The very simple mounting is made possible with the help of the patented 'snap on' fitting system. It takes a bit of adjustment first time out, but fitting and removal is then a doddle compared to other rear mounted systems.

We have found that the bikes are usually secured most effectively with an extra strap to hold everything tight, and are therefore providing a free strap with each carrier - one strap per carrier! We've reduced the price of the ClipOn by 10p to allow for this.

Please note that you cannot use rear fixing carriers on cars with rear spoilers, or on vehicles where modifications to the roof or tailgate would have an effect on the fitting of the carrier. Find a different solution - either roof mounting and/or tow bar mounting.
