Comes Fully Assembled

– Carries up to Two Bikes

1. Choosing the correct
top straps

This rack includes three types of top
or upper strap attachment systems:

a) Regular Hollywood top straps
with trunk lid hooks (Fig. 3). These
are pre-assembled with the rack.
See section 2

b) Hatch anchors with quick connect
straps. See section 3

c) Roof rack adapter straps with
quick connect straps.
See section 4

On some vehicles, more than one top
strap attachment system can be
used. Determining the best one may
require ruling out the other two.

When installing the F2, please follow these important guidelines:
 Install the F2 on structurally sound trunks, hatches, roof rack load

bars and roof rack raised side rails only.

 Never attach hooks to plastic, glass, fiberglass or carbon fiber.

 Clean the surface of the trunk or hatch before installation of the rack.

 Tighten all six straps before AND after mounting bikes on the rack.

 Maximum capacity is two bikes, 35 lbs/16kg per bike.

 Always use the safety strap after loading and tying down bikes.

 Keep bicycle tires min. 1ft/30cm away from vehicle exhaust pipe.

 Check rack, bikes and straps regularly during use.

 Drive slowly when used on bumpy or dirt surface roads.

The F2 Over-the-Top rack has been specially designed to fit SUVs, mini-vans and hatch-backs equipped

with rear spoilers or wind deflectors. The rack uses an adjustable “spoiler clearance frame” to prevent the
top or uppermost straps of the rack from making contact with the spoiler. The F2 will also fit most vehicles
without spoilers.
