Got a ute with a canopy/service body?  The Shingleback Canopy Bike Rack is a simple solid solution that not only securely carries your bikes it also leaves the tow bar free for towing*.  The bikes are carried a lot closer to the vehicle which improves the departure angle and reduces rear overhang.  The Canopy Bike Rack uses the same innovative best in class Cradles that are used on the rest of the Shingleback racks which are rated to 35kg each, are multi adjustable, accept BMX and Roadie accessories, and really are much safer for your bike.  While the Canopy rack is awesome please be aware that depending on the height of your canopy and vehicle it may be a challenge for shorter people to reach while loading/unloading bikes.

The kit consists of the top bar with cradles, bottom bar, and the new canopy mount brackets which are a universal solution to help custom fit the top bar to your canopy.  As canopies vary and everyone has a different set up, it is your responsibility to ensure that your vehicle, canopy, mounting system are suitable and that you comply with any local rules and regulations including making sure your number plate is visible.  Please note the kit does not include a number plate board but they are available separately if needed.  

We recommend using a skilled fabricator to ensure the Shingleback Canopy Bike Rack is properly installed and securely affixed. See warning & disclaimer below.

Whilst it is possible to use the Shingleback Canopy Bike Rack in conjunction with your existing Roof Racks, Roof Top Tent, Awnings, solar panels etc, these items may also need to be adjusted, moved or removed to allow clearance for the bike rack.

*If you plan to also tow a trailer/caravan/camper trailer when transporting bikes it is up to you to ensure that you don’t exceed your vehicle’s GVM or GCM or down load rating and the drawer bar is long enough to ensure clearance.
