Abstract
The invention concerns a roof-mounted bicycle hodler for vehicles. The bicycle holder comprises profiled carrier () on which a bicycle () is intended to be positioned in an upright position, first and second fastening devices (and, respectively) on said profiled carrier () for securing said profiled carrier () on first and second load carrier rails (and, respectively), said rails being attached to said vehicle roof (), and a holding arm () pivotally mounted on said profiled carrier () for pivotal movement essentially between a release position and a securing position in which said holding arm () is attachable to the frame of the bicycle (). The holding arm () is kinetically connected to a stop member () arranged, in response to the pivotal movements of the holding arm (), to be shifted between a blocking position associated with the securing position of the holding arm () and a release position associated with the release position of the holding arm (), said stop member () while in its blocking position securing the attachment of the first fastening device () to respectively the profiled carrier () and the first load-carrier rail () and while in its release position allowing said fastening devices to move apart.
