An adaptor bar includes a retractable tube unit. Two end parts are respectively connected to two respective ends of the tube unit. Two C-shaped hooks are respectively fixed to the two ends of the tube unit. Each hook includes a first connection portion. Two plates are respectively connected to the two end parts. Each plate includes a first section, a second section and a third section. The second section is formed inclinedly between the first and third sections. The third section of each plate is fixed to the end part corresponding thereto. The first section of each plate is removably engaged with the first connection portion of the hook by sliding the end part. The first section includes a first recess and a second recess. The second recess is located close to the second section and includes a recessed reinforcement which reinforces a portion between the first and second sections.

A hitch mounted bicycle carrier that vertically mounts a plurality of bicycles. The bicycles are secured by the front tire in a C-hoop structure at the top of the bicycle carrier. The bicycle carrier secures a rear tire to a lower mounting structure. The bicycle carrier is configured to be mounted to the vehicle with an anti-rattle hitch mounting method. A hinge structures integrates dampers/gas springs to slow the hinging of the bicycle carrier when loaded with bicycles. The bicycle carrier when not in use for transportation doubles as a bicycle storage and access rack. The bicycle carrier also acts as a bicycle tuning, repair, and workstation when on the back of a vehicle or when in use as a storage access rack. The bicycle carrier also features integrated locking cables as an anti-theft deterrent when riders aren't with the bicycles and bicycle carrier.

A vehicle sports rack includes a hitch bar for insertion into a vehicle trailer hitch receiver. The hitch bar includes a wedge clamp for clamping the hitch bar against the inside walls of the vehicle hitch receiver. The wedge clamp is held in alignment with the hitch bar by a wedge clamp spring before and when the hitch bar is inserted into the trailer hitch receiver, thus making for easier, one-person installation. A hitch bar bolt pulls the wedge clamp out of alignment with the hitch bar when tightened, the non-alignment forming the clamping action. A hitch pin further secures the hitch bar in the vehicle trailer hitch receiver.
