Abstract: A load carrier for use on bicycles incorporating a load-suspending hook. The hook is affixed atop two support tubes that are mounted directly to the rear triangle of a standard bicycle frame. Four mounting sites near the rear wheel axle provide secure mounting. The hook is located on the central, sagittal plane of the bicycle approximately 50-60 centimeters directly above the rear wheel. A restraining strap, such as an elastic bungee-type cord, secures the suspended load against the support tubes to prevent swinging and maintain the central, sagittal position. The forces of the load, which can comprise any handled bag including backpacks, remain centered during riding and do not adversely affect balance of the bicycle.
