Today on our 2011 Ford Fiesta Five-Door Hatchback, were going to be test fitting the RockyMount
TieRod Roof Mounted Bike Carrier, part number RKY1014. We already have our bike carrier
assembled according to the instructions, so now we're ready to mount it up on the vehicle.
Well position the head of the bike rack over our front load bar, and then well fit the
rear clamp around our rear bar. Well use the wing nuts in the rear to tighten down the
clamp and well use our Allen key in the front to tighten down the two rubber coated straps
that wrap around the front bar. With our bike rack in place, were ready to mount our bicycle.
First thing we need to do is open up the rear strap to make sure we have room to put the
rear wheel of the bicycle. Then well take the front fork of the bike
and drop it into the skewer on top of the rack. We can then lock down the skewer, and
secure the strap at the rear, and well be ready to hit the road. That does it for our
test fit of the RockyMount TieRod Roof Mounted Bike Rack on our 2011 Ford Fiesta Five-Door
Hatch.
