This trike rack is the perfect solution for carrying a 3-wheeler on your vehicle's roof if you don't already have a roof rack installed. Vacuum cups attach in seconds to the roof, trunk, or glass on your car, SUV, van, motorhome, or trailer. Because it doesn't require a permanent installation, it's great for transporting your trike when you're traveling by rental car. And if you're worried that vacuum cups won't stay attached to your vehicle, you can rest assured because each vacuum cup provides 210 lbs of suction, giving you a total of 1,050 lbs of pull strength. Your trike isn't going anywhere! Additionally, the rack stores easily in your trunk or garage when not in use, or in your suitcase while traveling.
SeaSucker vacuum cups are designed to install on your vehicle without causing dents or scratches. They will attach to most non-porous surfaces including metal, glass, and fiberglass. Each 6" cup is rated to hold up to 210 lbs. The housing and plunger are constructed of durable plastic with rustproof stainless-steel hardware, and the rubber pad is UV resistant up to 5 years. The included Lube Tube lets you keep the plungers in working condition.
To install the rack, make sure the mounting surface is clean, moisten the surface of each cup, place the rack on your roof, trunk, or window glass, then press each plunger several times until the orange bands disappear. Place your trike's side tires on each side wheel carrier in the clamp arm trays and secure them with the hook-and-loop straps. Depending on the surface they're mounted to and the load being put on them, suction in the cups will decrease over time. Make sure to check the plungers before you get into your vehicle. When you see the orange indicator bands show simply re-pump the plungers.
The crank arm strap prevents your pedal from hitting your roof and scratching your vehicle. Rotate your trike's crank arm parallel with the chain stay and wrap the hook-and-loop crank arm strap around both.
Place the front vacuum cup where your front tire sits, pump the plunger until the orange bands disappear, then wrap the hook-and-loop strap around the tire to secure it in place.
To break the seal on each cup and remove the rack from your vehicle, simply pull the T-shaped tabs up and towards the center of the cups - it's that easy. Remove the side and front vacuum cups and store them in your trunk or garage, or put them in a storage bag or suitcase to take with you.
