Clean the suction cup and the vehicle surface thoroughly to remove dust or wax, then re-pump the vacuum.
Ensure the correct axle adapters for your 12mm x 100mm system are fully seated and tightened before securing the bike.
Check that all mounting points are fully engaged and that the bike fork is tightly secured to the rack mount.
To ensure a secure hold, thoroughly clean the vehicle surface and the vacuum cup pads with a mild soap solution and water, ensuring all debris and wax are removed. When mounting, place the rack on a flat section of the vehicle's bodywork or glass, avoiding edges or curved body lines. Always check the vacuum pump indicators to ensure a firm seal has been achieved. For care, keep the vacuum cups clean and store the rack in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the integrity of the rubber. Regularly inspect the fork mount hardware to ensure no debris obstructs the locking mechanism.
