    Worth every penny

    I bought two of these Brass Knuckles bike carriers and added the fattie adapters. Carried two fatties on top of my Jeep Cherokee for 5 hours this weekend without issue. I added the locks which are a must. Hats off to this carrier.

    So much easier!

    Posted by Joon O. on Apr 2nd 2018

    I bought this last season with the hopes that it would make getting to the trails simpler than the fork mount tray I’ve had for years. Wow! What a difference. Super easy to get the bike on and off. Easy to lock. Great customer service. Outside of investing in a hitch mount system, it couldn’t get any easier. I love the fact that parts are available to purchase and replace if the wear out or break thru use.

    Best roof rack I've ever owned

    Posted by Michael Jordan on Jan 18th 2018

    What I love about this rack. 1. Just about everything 2. Super sturdy 3. Nice looking 4. As aerodynamic as a bike rack can be 5. Fits my 2.8 tires with ease and could accommodate much larger like 3.0 6. Holds my bike on with such positive, solid, scratch free, no worries, almost bombproof ease. 7. Makes my cross bars more solid with the racks beefy construction. I have owned many racks in my 40+ years of riding. This is a next level rack. It outperforms and accommodates so many bikes. Compared to my Thule T2 Classic hitch rack this rack has it beat hands down in every respect I found no faults so far with this rack.

    Not bad

    Posted by Josh D. on Jan 4th 2018

    I like the rack, I just purchased my second one. Reason I'm not impressed, is the second rack does not have the clips for the ratchet strap to attach to. Now when loading or attempting to unload the straps get stuck in your spokes. A couple times its almost broke.

    Great Solid Rack!

    Posted by S B. on Nov 25th 2017

    Holds everything from a 29er Enduro to a skinny light carbon bikes. Fenders, fat tires or whatevs, it perfectly adjustable. Super simple to mount on my Thule bars and it could fit really on any crossbar. Literally two screws to turn to install. Also, the grabber is swappable left or right. An affordable easy to use investment for any bike.

    Brass knuckles beats the rest

    Posted by Scott W. on Nov 25th 2017

    This is my second brass knuckles. It’s awesome to have wheels on roof racks. A word to the wise, it’s good for tall folks. You must be able to lift your bike overhead to load it onto the roof. The rack is solid. It’s awesome that it is so versatile. Love the clever locking mechanism. Best roof rack I know about. And it turns all my friends heads. They all laugh and say “it’s like brass knuckles” and I say “it is brass knuckles”
