The versatile Rola TX-103 hitch-mounted bike carrier allows you to safely and securely carry three bicycles of almost any frame size on almost any vehicle.

Rola TX-103 bike rack anti-sway cradles

The bike rack has large, soft anti-sway cradles that hold your bikes securely in place during travel with rubber straps and that accommodate bike-frame tube sizes up to 2" wide and 3" tall. The anti-sway devices touch your bike frame at three points to keep the bikes from moving back and forth, eliminating bike-to-bike contact during travel and protecting your bikes's painted surfaces. The cradles can be repositioned along the rack arms to ensure that your bikes remain properly spaced.

Rola TX-103 bike rack arm folding leverRola TX-103 bike rack arms folded down

The TX-103 has dual arms that provide your bikes with excellent support. You can fold down the arms for convenient storage when the rack is not in use by pulling pin and removing the handle mounted on the top of the upright support arm. When the arms are lowered, pull the pin and replace the handle to lock the arms in place in the down position.

Rola TX-103 bike rack integrated cable lock

The bike carrier includes an integrated cable lock that stores inside the upright support arm when you are not using the rack. The cable lock secures to a post at the end of one of the rack arms to lock your bikes to the carrier. The cable lock comes with two keys.

Rola TX-103 tilting bike rackRola TX-103 bike rack tilted

The TX-103 offers easy access to the rear cargo area without your having to remove the bikes from the rack. You can tilt the bike carrier away from your vehicle by removing a pin and clip at the foot of the rack. Pull the upright arm of the rack up and forward until it rests on the stops that keep it from hitting the ground. To restore the rack to the upright position, push the rack back into place and insert the pin and clip.

Rola flip shank

The bike carrier features Rola's patented flip shank, which has both a 1-1/4" square end and a 2" square end for use with either size hitch receiver. The shank rotates around a clevis pin and locks into your desired position with a simple pin and clip. This eliminates the need for a hitch adapter and makes moving the rack between vehicles very quick and easy.

Large turning knob shown on the front of the hitch bar Anti-wobble piece shown extending from the hitch bar

Where other racks require a bolt and wrench to tighten the rack inside the hitch, the Kuat Alpha uses only a convenient hand knob.



Compact folding design allows for convenient storage

Aside from tilting away from the vehicle, the arms fold down, and the hitch bar rotates 270 degrees, parallel to the upright bar. This compact folding design makes the rack very easy to store.



Retractable cable shown pulled out of the right arm and locked inside the cable slot

The bike lock system has a 20" retractable cable that pulls out from the end of the right arm. A magnetic pull prevents the cable from falling from the arm when the rack is in its fold-down position. When in use, the cable wraps around the top tube of the last bike on the rack, and the cable tip inserts into the side slot of the lock. A button on the lock cylinder pushes down to lock the cable tip in the slot. The rack also includes a locking hitch pin. Two keys come with the hitch pin, and two keys come with the retractable bike lock system.

If you care about the safety of your bikes, there should be no holdup when deciding what carrier to purchase. The Yakima HoldUp tray-style, hitch-mounted carrier provides superior protection for up to two bikes, boasting StrongArm technology, an integrated cable lock and a host of other valuable features.

Yakima HoldUp StrongArm hooksYakima HoldUp hooks over front tire

The HoldUp is distinguished from comparable carriers by its deep front wheel cradles and StrongArm technology. The contoured front cradles provide a stable base for the bike. The pivoting arms with push-button ratcheting hooks then wrap around the front wheels of the bikes. The arms hold the bikes on the trays and prevent the bikes from swaying back and forth during transit - all with no bike frame contact. The pivoting arms also include stops at 90 degrees to prevent them from hitting the ground and possibly dragging during transport.

The front arms and cradles combine with adjustable rear tire trays to allow the HoldUp to accommodate a wide variety of bike styles. The rear cradles pivot to accommodate the different bike sizes - no need for sliding and tightening - and the wheel is secured with ratcheting straps. The pivoting rear wheel cradle also helps to reduce the overall size of the carrier.

Yakima HoldUp spring-loaded pull pinYakima HoldUp folded up against rear of vehicle

The platform of the carrier is secured in the "folded up" or "down" positions with an easy-to-use, spring-loaded pull pin. Pull the pin out, and the carrier folds easily against the rear of the vehicle when not in use or folds down for loading your bikes. For storage, the front wheel trays and ratcheting arms fold flat toward the center to take up little space. The carrier will also tilt down 20 degrees to allow for better access to the rear cargo area.

Yakima HoldUp integrated security cable with SKS lock core

The HoldUp includes its own added security measure with an integrated cable lock. The 6-1/2' cable can be run through your bike frames and wheels and secured to the bolt located on the tray of the rack (pictured). This locks your bikes to the rack, but you may still want to get a hitch lock and SKS locking cores to secure the rack to the vehicle.

Yakima HoldUp integrated bottle opener

The tray includes an integrated bottle opener, located at the end of the rack.

The HoldUp is secured inside the hitch with a heavy-duty (RocSteady) hitch tongue, providing superior stability for transportation. The hitch tongue includes an insert that both reduces movement in the hitch and prevents rattling. HoldUp comes with a hitch bolt and clip and is backed by a lifetime warranty.

Rolan NV2 carriers two bikes of any shape and size

Be the envy of all your bike-riding buddies by adding the Rola NV2 to your hitch receiver. The NV2 is the perfect combination of versatility and functionality, with lightweight aluminum construction and the ability to fit both 1-1/4" and 2" hitches without an adapter.

Rola NV2 sliding cradles

The NV2 carries two bikes of any size, shape or length simultaneously - including both adult and children's bikes - with sliding cradles. The cradles slide up and down the carrier arms to adjust for varying bike sizes and engage with spring-loaded pins that snap easily into your desired setting. The anti-sway cradles also grip your bike by the wheel rims, not the frame, preventing crimps in your brake lines and wear on the bike paint.

Rola NV2 central hub adjusts carrier arms

The arms of the NV2 are constructed of lightweight aluminum and converge at a central hub at the base of the carrier. The hub has an easy-to-use trigger that locks the arms into three distinct positions - "Up" for when the rack is not in use, "Angled" for carrying bikes, and "Flat" for access to the rear cargo area.

Rola NV2 rotating shank

One of the most distinguishing features of the NV2 is the Rola-patented rotating shank. The shank features both a 1-1/4" end and a 2" end for use with either type of hitch receiver. The shank rotates around a clevis pin and locks into your desired position with a simple pin and clip. This eliminates the need for a hitch adapter.

Rola NV2 security loops for cable lock

The lightweight, aluminum arms of the carrier features security loops near the base for use with a cable lock. Simply weave the cable lock (sold separately) through the loops and your bike tires to ensure their safety. The arms also sport large, foam pads that protect your bike from contact with the carrier during transport.
