The Komodo is the perfect solution for carrying a road bike on your vehicle's naked roof if you don't already have a roof rack or traditional bike rack installed. Vacuum cups attach in seconds to the roof, trunk, or rear window on your car, SUV, van, motorhome, or trailer. Because it doesn't require a permanent installation, the Komodo is great for transporting your bike 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 840 lbs of pull strength. Your bike isn't going anywhere! Additionally, the rack stores easily in your trunk or garage when not in use, or in a duffle bag while traveling.
Scratch-Resistant Vacuum Cups
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.
Easy Installation, Setup, and Removal
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. 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 Komodo carries your bike using a 9-mm quick-release skewer and plug, or a 12-mm x 100-mm thru-axle plug. It only takes seconds to swap plugs.
To secure your bike's rear wheel, place it in the wheel cradle on the tail of the rack and wrap the padded ratchet strap around the tire to secure it in place. The tail folds when not in use to make the rack more compact for storage.
The crank arm strap prevents your pedal from spinning and damaging the rack or your vehicle. Rotate your bike's crank arm parallel with the chain stay and wrap the hook-and-loop crank arm strap around both.
Finally, use the included Hogg wheel holder to carry your front wheel on the bike's rear-wheel axle. This keeps you from having to store a dirty tire in your vehicle, and it frees up space for other items.
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 rack and store it in your trunk or garage, or put it in a duffle bag to take with you.

2001 BMW Z3
The Komodo was the perfect solution for carrying my road bike on the trunk lid on my old BMW Z3 Roadster. I also purchased the front wheel Hogg and or works beautifully. Seasucker's Komodo Is a very high quality product that looks like a piece of art. I'm likely to get more compliments on the Komodo rack than my bike or car!

See what our Experts say about this SeaSucker Trunk Bike Racks
- Trunk Mount Bike Rack for a 2013 Honda OdysseyThe design of the 2013 Honda Odyssey does not work for trunk mounted bike racks. Your only option, without installing a hitch, is a suction cup type rack like the SeaSucker Komodo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Fork Mount - Vacuum Cup Mounted - Black # 298-BK1910-BK. I recommend installing a hitch like the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class III - 2" # 75270. This would allow you many choices for a hitch mounted bike rack like the Thule Camber # TH9058 as a great example....

Check out the video of this innovative product. The # TH45JV hasn't been confirmed as a fit for you vehicle so I cannot recommend it for you.
view full answer... - Hitch/Bike Carrying Options for 2017 Honda Civic Si SedanUnfortunately, none of our vendors manufacture a hitch that's compatible with the 2017 Honda Civic Si with the center exhaust. The presence of the exhaust would require that the receiver wrap around the underside of the exhaust which would place the receiver tube too close to the ground. It would also look pretty bad. If you were needing the hitch to carry bikes, the only bike carrying option we offer for the Civic Si Sedan would be the SeaSucker Komodo, part # 298-BK1910-BK that uses...

If your e-bike weighs 45 lbs or less, this rack will work on your vehicle. Do keep in mind, e-bike manufacturers suggest removing your e-bike's battery during transport. This would also lighten your load on the bike rack. I would definitely speak with Mercedes about weight limits for your vehicle because this rack will either be on your rear window...

The SeaSucker is an amazing rack but, I realize that's quite a large price difference so you might instead like the Thule OutWay # TH45JV. The OutWay which is an extremely high quality bike rack that fits your vehicle and costs less than the SeaSucker. If you plan on carrying any women's or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may...

If you have a hardtop then I recommend the SeaSucker Talon Bike Rack # 298-BT1004 which mounts directly to your roof without the need of a roof rack. This system uses powerful vacuum cups that have a pull strength of 210 lbs each so it won't be going anywhere. If you have the convertible...

Instead, If you have a bike with a quick release or removable front wheel, I recommend looking at the SeaSucker Komodo trunk rack, part # 298-BK1910-BK. This rack uses extremely strong vacuum cups to mount to the rear of the vehicle with no additional racks or installations needed, and can carry one bike per Komodo....

As you stated the Class III # C13190 will also not fit due to the Active Curve System, so there is not a hitch option for you at this time. The only options we have that aren't roof mounted are the SeaSucker Hornet # 298-BH1302 or the SeaSucker Komodo # 298-BK1910-BK. I know it isn't convenient to lift your bikes to your roof, but it in my opinion is the best option for you for...

While it is capable of being able to carry a 2nd bike the maximum weight per bike does not change if only carrying one bike. We have the SeaSucker Komodo Bike Rack which is capable of carrying one bike up to 45lbs. It uses a fork mount so you will need to remove the front wheel which should easily drop your bike below the 45lb maximum for this rack. The rack is available in the following...

To mount a trunk mounted bike rack on your vehicle, the upper straps will have to run over the spoiler and hook to the top edge of your rear hatch. The spoiler on the Mazda 3 Hatchback was not designed to support any weight and could deform or even break under the weight of a bike rack and bikes. Instead, I recommend...

- Trunk Mounted 2 Bike Rack for 2014 Cadillac SRXThere are several models that are listed as a “Confirmed Fit” for your 2014 Cadillac SRX, but your best choice is the Thule OutWay 2-Bike Rack # TH45JV. You could also consider OutWay 3-Bike Rack # TH56BV if you ever thought you might want to carry 3 bikes. While these would fit your SRX, the upper straps which attach to the top of your hatch gate rest on your rear spoiler and apply load pressure to it. I would be concerned about possible abrasions at those points. These are really better...

- Can SeaSucker Komodo Bike Rack be Used With Through Axle BikeI spoke with SeaSucker, and their Komodo bike rack is able to be used only with 12mm x 100mm road bike through-axles, so if you have that size through axle you can use the SeaSucker Komodo Trunk Bike Rack - Black # 298-BK1910-BK. Otherwise, what you will need instead is the SeaSucker Talon Roof Bike Rack # 298-BT1004.
