Top 10 Best "Rooftop Carriers" Products

The Thule 599XTR Big Mouth Upright Rooftop Bicycle Carrier sets the standard for bike carrying flexibility and ease of use. The 599XTR is an updated version of Thule's 599XT, but still requires the Xadapt2 to be used with an Aero bar.

The easy-to-mount Thule Big Mouth Upright has a convenient, rack-level bike clamping feature, and worry-free, automatic self-adjusting jaws for perfect bike clamping every time. The Thule Big Mouth accommodates bike frames up to 3.125-inches in diameter, fits both Thule and Yakima load bars, and features a dual-locking design that simultaneously locks the bike to the carrier and the carrier to the rack. This bicycle carrier system is constructed with a black anodized aluminum wheel tray that is built to last, and can be customized with 790 Tray skins. The 599XTR weighs 10.5 pounds in total, and is compatible with the Thule One-Key System (not included), and can be locked securely with a single lock cylinder.

A great choice for a multipurpose cargo box, the rooftop-mounted Thule 667ES Excursion ES can carry just about anything. It has a 17 cubic foot capacity, and it includes a Thule One Key System box lock that eliminates the hassle of multiple keys. The EasySnap hardware mounts directly to most aftermarket and factory-installed roof racks in seconds, and a rear opening.
