The 102DB Deluxe Two Bike Carrier from Allen Racks is a simple and sturdy bike carrying system that fits most sedans, hatchbacks, minivans, and SUVs. Designed with a single configuration, this rack eliminates the hassle and headaches associated with setup during installation. The fully assembled rack mounts to your vehicle in seconds, featuring 12-inch long carry arms that can easily accommodate up to two bikes. A patented individual tie-down system secures and protects your bicycles, ensuring their safety during transport.
The 102DB is a product of Allen Bike Racks, a company founded by Dick Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist and cycling enthusiast. After working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Allen found himself out of a job due to government cutbacks. Transforming his garage hobby into a new industry, Allen set out to solve the problem of transporting his family's bicycles during weekend trips to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire.
Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, Allen created a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings for padding. The first trunk-mounted rack proved to be a success, and Dick Allen started Allen Bike Racks in 1967. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971, Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors.
Today, the company, now owned and operated by Dick's son Alex, owns more than three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks. The business has expanded to include three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world.
The 102DB Deluxe Two Bike Carrier from Allen Racks is backed by the manufacturer's lifetime warranty on workmanship and materials, ensuring the quality and durability of the product. With its simple, sturdy design and patented features, this bike carrier provides a hassle-free solution for transporting your bicycles without the need for a roof rack.
