Abstract: A bicycle carrier includes a base, a bicycle tray, a wheel holder, and a wheel securement arm. The bicycle tray can couple to the base and be configured to support a bicycle. The wheel holder can couple to the bicycle tray and be configured to translate relative to the bicycle tray. The wheel securement arm can rotatably couple to the bicycle tray or the wheel holder and be configured to secure a bicycle wheel in the wheel holder.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to improvements in load carriers mountable on the rear of a vehicle. Furthermore, the present disclosure relates to load carriers having a load support arrangement which may be moved between a use position and a non-use position. The present disclosure also relates to configurations of a base frame for a load carrier, a tightening mechanism for mounting a load carrier on a vehicle, an arrangement for mounting a load support arrangement on a non-round cross beam of a load carrier, an attachment device for coupling a force transfer member to a mounting portion on the vehicle, a specific configuration of a coupling mechanism for supporting a vehicle coupling portion of a load carrier on a vehicle, and a spacer for guiding a force transfer member around damageable parts of a vehicle such as a spoiler.
