Our Review: INNO's Versatile Tire Hold II Roof Rack
In our continuous search for reliable bike transport solutions, we recently tested the INNO INA389 Universal Mount Tire Hold II Roof Rack. This sleek, black one-bike carrier impressed us with its thoughtful design that secures bikes by the wheels, eliminating any frame contact. We found installation surprisingly straightforward, with universal mounting hardware that adapted perfectly to our crossbars.
What truly stands out is the versatility - this rack accommodated everything from our road bikes to mountain bikes with wider tires. The lockable design gave us peace of mind when making quick stops during our road trip. Though it's a premium option, we believe the aircraft-grade materials justify the investment, especially considering how the rack maintained rock-solid stability even at highway speeds.
For cyclists seeking a no-contact, secure roof carrying solution, this INNO rack deserves a spot on your shortlist.

After three weeks of testing, we're impressed with this Heavy Duty Rooftop Cargo Carrier. The 110-pound capacity proved more than sufficient during our mountain camping expedition, easily accommodating four duffel bags, camping gear, and a cooler.

After putting the 220lbs Cross Bar Roof Rack for Jeep Compass through its paces, we're thoroughly impressed with its performance.

Our Road Test: FIVKLEMNZ 30 Cubic Car Rooftop Cargo Bag
We recently took the FIVKLEMNZ 30 Cubic Rooftop Cargo Carrier on a weekend getaway to put it through its paces. Right off the bat, we were impressed with the complete package: anti-slip mat, reinforced straps, six door hooks, and even a luggage lock for security. Installation was straightforward, taking us less than 15 minutes from unboxing to secured on our vehicle.
During our 200-mile journey, which included some heavy rainfall, the bag proved genuinely waterproof-our belongings arrived completely dry. What really stood out was its versatility; we tested it on both our SUV with roof rails and a sedan without any rack, and it performed equally well on both vehicles.
The 30 cubic feet capacity swallowed all our camping gear with room to spare. If you're looking for extra storage without the permanence of a hard cargo box, this FIVKLEMNZ carrier delivers.
