Carry 1 bike on your vehicle's roof without having to purchase a separate roof rack and bike rack. Carrier installs in seconds with vacuum cups that won't scratch or dent your car. Removes quickly for storage in your trunk when not in use.The rack arrived very quickly.
Upon opening the box I observed that the covers for the suction pads had come loose during shipping. Probably not an issue.
The instructions for assembly and mounting were clear and easy to follow.
I planned to secure the cups to the glass roof on my VW. So, I thought it would be best to clean the glass and roof with auto detailing spray. After doing that I attached the carrier and gave it a prett y good shake.
I have attached three photographs that may add clarity.
I'm very optimistic. This may be the best carrier I've had for my bicycle.
Keep Eager.
I received delivery and setup.
I seem to be able to connect my road bike wheel with quick release - but not my road disc bike with thru-axle. Do I need an accessory for thru axle bike?
Your product is still working great. It’s on top of a fiberglass truck top. Speeds up to 75 mph. It’s a heavy hybrid Fugi. Well I do lose some suction in one of the cups but not much. I’m always able to pump it back up. Sorry I can provide a picture at this time.
So far, so good!
I just got mine today but won't use it till the weekend... it was hard to find as it was backordered until forever on [online retailer] so I bought it from etrailer which was great because I HATE [online retailer] so there's that...
These guys are awesome, they emailed me to ask if I got it okay within a couple of hours of it arriving! I mean, who does that. Great job!
So don't buy from [online retailer]... it was cheaper from these guys.
The thing arrived in great condition and ahead of time and looks awesome... can't wait till the weekend to go off for a bike ride.
Extremely well constructed, easy to assemble and attaches to vehicle perfectly. With a bike loaded on, it's rock solid. Well thought out and engineered product,

Carry 1 bike on your vehicle's rear window without having to mess with a cumbersome trunk rack. Carrier installs in seconds with vacuum cups that won't scratch or dent your vehicle. Stores in your trunk or luggage when not in use.I have a step-through sport utility bike that I can’t put on a standard bike carrier because the frame doesn’t have a top tube. My car is a hybrid & will not accommodate a trailer hitch. My car is an SUV, so a roof rack is not practical for me. Hatchback bike racks are not suitable for the particular make & model of my SUV. The Seasucker Hornet seemed to be my only option. I’m happy to say that the Seasucker Hornet solved my problem & now I can transport my bicycle anywhere.
I was REALLY wary about this but it was my only option for a last minute trip. I was even more nervous because I had to put it on during a downpour. It didnt budge at all on my 2 hour trip.
I have used this rack a lot and never had any problems. Moved it from car to car no issues. Drove down the highway over 70mph held tight. Even used with a heavier bike no problem. Great purchase for one bike. Super easy to use. Giving it a big thumbs up!!!
Clever idea but difficult to mount a bike if you have angled handlebars. Plus seems a bit sketchy--you have to check the mounts every 4 hours as they lose suction.
