The Atera GIRO Speed is a smart and innovative carrier, originally designed for BMW but now available to the aftermarket. The real innovation is in the tightening system where, first time out, you pull out the tensioning knob and turn it until it's just the way you want it, not too tight, not too loose. Thereafter it uses a quick release system. Other manufacturers use a trial and error system, i.e. guess the tension required, and then find out whether it's right; there's a real danger of overtightening and then breaking the mechanism. The GIRO Speed fits standard 22mm x 32mm bars, and all the T-track aluminium bars we sell (adapters are included), and is suitable for bikes with disc brakes. City-crash tested.
We are giving away a free wheel bag with every carrier. Takes up to 29" wheels. Available while stocks last!

The GIRO Speed is a smart and innovative carrier, originally designed for BMW but now available to the aftermarket. The real innovation is in the tightening system where, first time out, you pull out the tensioning knob and turn it until it's just the way you want it, not too tight, not too loose. Thereafter it uses a quick release system. Other manufacturers use a trial and error system, i.e. the user needs to guess the tension required, and then find out whether it's right; there's a real danger of overtightening and then breaking the mechanism. The GIRO Speed fits standard 22mm x 32mm bars, and all the T-track aluminium bars we sell (adapters are included), and is suitable for bikes with disc brakes. It works with standard 9mm QR forks, adapters are available separately for some thru axes. As well as locking the bike to the carrier, the carrier is also locked to the roof bars in an innovative way: The carrier is held to the bars with Torx bolts; as the tensioning knob it tightened the holes which provide access for the Torx key are blocked by steel plates - that's superior anti theft protection!
This carrier is part of our "Pick and Mix programme", where there are discounts for multiple purchases of any carrier in the programme, and you can mix cheap and expensive. Change the quantities in your shopping basket (and press "Recalculate") to see what happens! This carrier is priced as low as £74.95. Our free wheel bag offer We are giving away free 28" or 29" wheel bag(s) with forkmount carrier orders, while stocks last. The downside of forkmount carriers is that you have to find a way of carrying what might be a muddy / wet / oily front wheel - a wheel bag is the easiest solution. We have single and double wheel bags to give away. Order 1 bike carrier and we will send a single, order 2 and we will send a double, order 3 and we will send a double and a single, order 4 and we will send two doubles. If you have a preference about 28" or 29", please make a note in the 'Order comments' box in the Checkout. If we can meet your request, we will, but stock is limited and we can only send what we have!
These lined and padded wheel bags hold all wheels up to 28" or 29", are made from a highly tear-proof polyester, and include very useful internal pockets, one Velcro and two zipped.
These are made by B&W International, based in Germany, who we think make the best quality and best designed range of bike carrying bags and boxes on the market. |

Deciding which bike carriers to buy is not always easy, especially as you may not have had experience of using bike carriers before. We hope that our buying guides provide useful guidance about which bike carrier 'strategy' will be most appropriate for your circumstances, as well as highlighting the best features of particular models. We also have troubleshooting FAQs - for example, some customers struggle at first to fit four bikes onto a tow ball carrier, and wonder whether a different carrier would allow the bikes to be spaced wider apart. (It won't, but we have some good tips which make bike fitting much easier.) Our bike carriers Exchange Scheme covers roof mounting and tow ball mounting bike carriers only. Rear door mounting / strap on carriers are not included, and nor are roof bars. It allows you to exchange within 90 days of invoice date. Most exchanges are for roof mounting upgrades, or are tow ball carriers with very basic tilting systems being exchanged for easy to use sliding / tilting carriers. These are the rules of the bike carriers Exchange Scheme:
