The TRIO Roof Rack from Kuat has got all the bases covered. Compatibility is the name of the game for this rack. Whether your transporting a bike with quick release, thru-axle or one right out of the box, the bike can easily be secured once the front wheel is removed. With the move to many new bikes running disc, the availability to easy load in a rim or disc brake bike is crucial, yet made easy with the TRIO.
The rear wheel stays nice and secure via a sliding strap that is compatible with bikes equipped with any type of brakes. Once the bike is in the rack, the rear wheel and frame can be further secured with an integrated cable lock that will help protect against possible theft. Mountable to most stock, and all aftermarket crossbars, chances are the Kuat TRIO Roof Rack its compatible with your ride as well.

Good quality product. Works as advetised. Gotta ding it though because of the roof rack clamps. Put it on a 2023 Subaru Outback. Supplied clamps were too long for the roof rails. Had to go to kuat website to order the shorter ones. They worked great. FYI.
After many months of waiting I finally received my two TRIO Racks just in time for a Mountain biking road trip. These racks are stable and provide peace-of-mind while driving down the highway at 75mph and on bumpy forest service roads. Kuat actually makes the important pieces out of metal (unlike other manufacturers that make the most important clamping mechanism out of plastic and don't honor a lifetime warranty). I'm a convert to Kuat.
Nicest looking roof rack there is, and nice options for either road or mtb. However, it's a little awkward mounting a thru-axle mtb up there as you need to feed the axle through while balancing the bike to line it up. There are other brands that simply clamp down on the axle which is much safer and easier to do.
Looked at all the major brands for rooftop fork-mounted racks and this was the clear winner for fit/finish and ease of changing type of fork mounted (from my throughaxle rigs to my kids' and wife's skewers).
