The FreeRide 532 is suitable for bikes with downtubes up to 80mm (oval) or 72mm diameter (round). It’s 21cm wide and can be fitted for loading either from the left or the right hand side. The quick release clamp only needs to be adjusted to a particular down tube size once, making it quick and easy to use. The U bolts are designed to fit around bars up to 32mm wide by 22mm deep. 'T-track' aerobar adapters are also included which fit most T-track aerobars. These work with all the aerobars we sell - Atera, CRUZ, Thule WingBar, Whispbar. Some dealer supplied aerobars need bigger adapters, notably all BMW bars. If you have BMW bars you'll need to order a set of 889-3 adapters for every FreeRide 532 you order - these are listed below. The FreeRide 532 holds bikes up to a maximum weight of 17kg. There are two locks - one to lock the bike to the carrier, and the other to lock the carrier to the bars. This carrier is part of our Multi Buy discount scheme, where there are discounts if you buy more than one roof mounting bike carrier at the same time; you can mix budget and premium carriers and always get the cheapest price on each. Change the quantities in your shopping basket (and press "Recalculate") to see what happens! This carrier is priced as low as £62.95. Do you need roof bars as well? If so, check out our discounted Package Deals - whichever CRUZ, Atera or Whispbar roof bars you need for your car, (locks included), together with 2, 3 or 4 Thule 532s, all for a fixed price, whatever vehicle you have! We even have a Thule lock matching scheme where you pay what is in effect a deposit and get the whole lot back when the randomly numbered lock barrels are returned. Exchange scheme: Roof mounting bike carriers are part of our unique 90 day Exchange Scheme - see the tab for details. The bottom line is that if you aren't satisfied that the FreeRide 532 fits the bill you can exchange it for an alternative roof mount, or a tow bar bike rack.

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:
