Abstract: The disclosure relates to a load carrier (1) for a vehicle, such as a bike carrier (1), adapted to be mounted to a vehicle for transporting a load, the load carrier (1) comprising: —a base frame (500) having a length extension (L), a width extension (w) and a height extension (h), the base frame (500) comprising a first and a second elongated member (510, 520) for carrying a load, wherein the first and a second elongated members (510, 520) are separate from each other and provided substantially parallel with respect to each other along the length extension (L), wherein the base frame (500) further comprises: —a first and a second bridging portion (530, 540) provided between the first and second elongated members (510, 520) and coupling the first and second elongated members (510, 520) together.

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.
