All Mounts/Racks
General
A deteriorating paint finish will struggle to hold a strong bond with our vacuum cups, if the paint is flaking or extremely chipped it may cause the vacuum to fail, although, this depends on the severity of the paint.
No, due to the strength of the vacuum cup if mounted to a vinyl wrapped car it could cause the vinyl to bubble, damaging the finish.
We’ve speed rated our mounts to comply with the British national speed limit (70mph max).
All mounts should be stored with the vacuum cup covers attached, what you do with it after that is up to you. Some customers store their mount under their boot floor next to their spare wheel, taking up no space whilst always having it with them. Our mounts are very compact which allows them to be stored efficiently and conveniently in lots of places.
All Mount Evo products are made in Britain. See our ‘made in Britain’ section for more information.
Our vacuum cups exceed 48 hours of vacuum, more than enough time for your journey. We recommend when you naturally come to a stop, to refuel your car or go for a toilet break to check the vacuum cups. Leaving a maximum time between checking of 6 hours.
Yes, in fact when wet the vacuum cups work just as well. This means when you’re back from a cycle in the rain or a day of ski or surfing, our vacuum cups will work just as intended. Just ensure the surface is clean before applying.
Yes, our racks will work as normal in temperatures typical of Europe. Our racks have been extensively tested in the Alps during winter and the peaks of summer in the south of France.
Yes, Mount Evo racks are universal to all cars, so you can share driving with friends with ease.
No, due to quick installation and removal you do not need your rack on your car when not in use. This saves you from dreaded wind noise as well as increasing MPG when not in use.
Of course, you can view all instructions manuals here.
Modular
Modularity is the ability to change your rack to suit your needs. From Cycling, Surfing and Skiing, modularity allows you to change your rack to accommodate other sports without the need of buying another full rack.
Every mount/rack in our range is available as a modular base. Our vacuum cups are cross-compatible to save you money. Once you have a Mount Evo rack you'll never need to buy another full rack again, just a modular base. This is because you can transfer your vacuum cups from one rack to another. Modular bases include everything you need without the vacuum cups.
Everything except the vacuum cups. When ordering a modular base we make sure to include everything you need for the rack except vacuum cups.
Yes, every Mount Evo product is modular. You only need one mount to start saving.
To save you money. Car racks can be expensive and if you do multiple sports this price is amplified. The idea behind modular is reduce the cost of transporting multiple sports.
The vacuum cups from every mount we offer can be transferred from one rack to another. Once you own a Mount Evo rack you’ll never need to buy another full rack again, just a modular base. You’ll then be able to transfer cups between your racks.
Yes, just select the modular base you require along with any extra vacuum cups you may need.
No, Modular Bases do not have vacuum cups. You will need to already own a Mount Evo rack to purchase a modular base.
Maintenance
A clean mount is a strong mount. The strongest bond between car and mount is achieved when both surfaces are clean. Over time dirt and road grime may build up on or around your mount. When this happens wash Solo using warm soapy water, avoid using any chemicals as this may damage the rubber of the vacuum cup. When not in use make sure to attach the vacuum cup covers, this stops the cups deforming over time and also helps avoid dirt building up on the inside of the cup. A comprehensive guide is provided with every order.
Made in Britain
We are official members of the prestigious "Made in Britain" organisation. This accolade not only recognises the exceptional quality and craftsmanship of our products but also solidifies our commitment to upholding the highest standards of British manufacturing.
Yes, Mount Evo as a brand and all our products are Made in Britain.
Vacuum Cups
Our vacuum cups exceed 48 hours of vacuum, more than enough time for your journey. We recommend when you naturally come to a stop, to refuel your car or go for a toilet break to check the vacuum cups. Leaving a maximum time between checking of 6 hours.
Each vacuum cup is rated to 100kg of force. Depending on your mount you’ll have either 4-8 vacuum cups across your load. Solo will have a combined rating of 400kg, whilst Tidal will have 600kg. This will provide a very strong and safe bond to your car. Our vacuum cups are used in the transportation and installation of high rise building windowpanes.
Anything smooth or painted. The list of surfaces the vacuum cups work on is endless, the most common on cars will be painted body, glass, and lacquered carbon fibre.
No, we strongly advice you thoroughly clean the surface before applying a mount, this helps promote a stronger bond and avoids any damage. The only part of our mounts that comes into contact with the car is the soft rubber vacuum cup.
The vacuum cups are very reliable, they are used to transport and manoeuvre glass. We also use far more vacuum cups than necessary to secure the load.
Yes, in fact when wet the vacuum cups work just as well. This means when you’re back from a cycle in the rain or a day of ski or surfing, our vacuum cups will work just as intended. Just ensure the surface is clean before applying.
The differences between a suction cup and vacuum cup are huge. A vacuum cup is made to industrial standards with the intended use of transporting glass. Vacuum cups have a plunger to create the vacuum and the seal cannot be broken until you decide to lift the edge of the cup. Our vacuum cups can also withstand the force of 100kg’s each.
A suction cup is something you would typically use to hang your toiletries in the shower, which will inevitably fall down. Suction cups usually are not very strong or reliable.
