Bicycle carrier FISCHER Easy Mount 86268 for mountain bikes — trunk-mounted, quick-attach

The FISCHER Easy Mount 86268 trunk-mounted bicycle carrier is designed to transport one mountain bike on the rear of a car. The carrier uses a quick-attach mounting system that secures the bike frame to the vehicle without requiring roof rails or a towbar. It is intended for common mountain-bike frame shapes and provides a compact solution that is easy to install, remove and store. The design focuses on stable road-holding for short and medium trips such as weekend rides and trail access.

Advantages

The carrier offers fast, tool-free attachment and detachment to most car trunks, saving time when loading and unloading a mountain bike. Adjustable frame clamps accommodate typical mountain-bike tube diameters and shapes to hold the bike securely while minimizing frame contact. When not in use the unit folds compactly for convenient storage in a boot or garage. The construction provides a balance of light weight and durable support appropriate for everyday recreational use.

Suitable for

• Transporting a single mountain bike on short to medium road trips
• Weekend trail access or day rides where quick mounting is required
• Cars without roof racks or towbar where trunk mounting is preferred
• Users who need compact storage between uses

Key specifications

• Capacity: one mountain bike

How to use

Position the carrier on the closed trunk or hatch according to the alignment points on the frame and secure the main straps to the vehicle edges. Place the bicycle on the carrier so the frame rests in the adjustable clamps and tighten the clamps to hold the frame without overcompressing tubes. Use any included additional straps or safety ties to secure wheels and prevent lateral movement. Verify that the bike does not obstruct rear lights or number plate and perform a short test drive to confirm stability before starting a longer trip.

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect mounting straps and clamps for wear and tighten connections before each trip. Avoid using the carrier for oversized loads or frames that do not fit the clamp profile; follow vehicle manufacturer guidance regarding trunk-mounted accessories and maximum load limits. For longer journeys, re-check fastenings at stops to maintain secure transport.
