A bike rack is a device used to hold a bicycle, and is also known as bicycle carrier or bicycle stand. A bicycle carrier is attached to a vehicle (truck, bus, or car) and the bicycle is mounted on it. A bicycle carrier used for transportation of bicycles can be mounted in the front, rear, and on top of the vehicle. On the other hand, a bicycle stand is a device to which bicycles are attached securely for the purpose of parking. Bike racks can be free standing or attached to some stationary object or bolted to the ground. An indoor bike rack is used for private parking while outdoor bike racks are used in commercial areas. The most effective bike racks are those which can secure both wheels and frame.
