The Fiamma Bike Block Pro 3 represents a serious upgrade in bike security for motorhome and caravan owners who've grown tired of flimsy straps and complicated mounting systems. This blue variant works with all Fiamma Carry-Bike models and handles everything from skinny road bikes with 25mm tubes right through to chunky mountain bikes with 80mm downtubes. The front clasp system locks your bike in place without scratching paintwork, whilst the adjustable reach between 38.5cm and 42cm means you can carry multiple bikes without them clashing against each other during transit.
What sets this blocking system apart is how quickly you can secure bikes when you're packing up from a campsite. The wide non-scratch base spreads the clamping force across a larger area than standard bike blocks, which protects carbon frames and delicate finishes. It fits both round and oval tube profiles, so you're covered whether you're carrying modern aero-framed bikes or traditional steel tourers. The robust construction handles British road conditions without loosening, and the blue colour coding helps when you're mounting multiple bikes and need to match pairs of blocks to the same positions each time.
This bike block works as part of Fiamma's complete Carry-Bike system rather than as a standalone item. You'll need it alongside the frame holders and wheel straps that came with your rack, or as a replacement if your existing blocks have worn out. The Pro 3 design has proven itself across thousands of European touring trips, holding bikes steady on everything from smooth motorways to bumpy rural lanes. If you're planning longer trips or carrying expensive bikes, the extra security this system provides over basic tie-downs makes a genuine difference to peace of mind whilst you're driving.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Fiamma Carry-Bike models does the Bike Block Pro 3 fit?
The Bike Block Pro 3 works with all Fiamma Carry-Bike rack models including the Carry-Bike VW T5, Carry-Bike Caravan, Carry-Bike Motorhome, and Carry-Bike PRO ranges. This universal compatibility exists because Fiamma uses standardised mounting rails across their rack systems, so the bike block clips into the same track regardless of which vehicle type your rack is designed for.
Will this bike block fit carbon fibre bike frames safely?
Yes, the large non-scratch base spreads clamping pressure across a wider area than standard bike blocks, making it safe for carbon frames when tightened correctly. The base measures approximately 70mm wide and features a soft-touch coating that grips without marking. You should still avoid over-tightening, as with any bike carrier system, but the design specifically addresses the needs of modern lightweight frames that can be damaged by concentrated pressure points.
How many bike blocks do I need for my Carry-Bike rack?
You need two Bike Block Pro 3 units per bike you're carrying. Each bike requires one block at the front and one further back along the rail to hold the frame securely. If you have a two-bike rack, you'll need four blocks total. Most Fiamma racks come supplied with the required number of blocks, so this product serves as a replacement for worn or damaged units, or as an upgrade from standard blocks to the Pro 3 system.
What does the 38.5cm to 42cm reach measurement mean?
The reach refers to how far the bike block extends from the mounting rail to grip your bike frame. This adjustability allows you to position bikes at different distances from the motorhome or caravan, which stops handlebars and pedals from clashing when you're carrying multiple bikes. The adjustment range accommodates different bike geometries and lets you fine-tune spacing based on your specific combination of bikes.
Can the Bike Block Pro 3 handle electric bikes?
The bike block itself can grip electric bike frames within the 25mm to 80mm tube diameter range, but you must check your Carry-Bike rack's maximum weight rating first. Standard Carry-Bike racks typically support bikes up to 30kg each, whilst electric bikes often weigh 20-28kg. The Pro 3 block provides secure clamping for heavier bikes, but the limiting factor will be your rack's load capacity rather than the bike block's holding strength.
Does the blue colour serve any functional purpose?
The colour coding helps when setting up multiple bikes in consistent positions. If you use blue blocks in specific positions on your rack, you can quickly identify where each bike should mount without measuring distances each time. Many touring cyclists who regularly remove and refit bikes appreciate this visual reference system, though the blue variant performs identically to the red and black versions in terms of strength and function.
Will this fit oval-shaped bike tubes like those on aero road bikes?
Yes, the clasp design accommodates both round and oval tube profiles. Modern aero road bikes with flattened or teardrop-shaped downtubes fit securely because the large base conforms to the tube shape when tightened. The 25mm to 80mm specification refers to the tube's measurement at its widest point, so an oval tube measuring 60mm across its wide axis and 40mm on the narrow axis would fall well within the compatible range.
How often should bike blocks be replaced on a Carry-Bike rack?
Replace bike blocks when you notice the clasp mechanism becoming loose, the soft coating on the base showing wear, or if the adjustment mechanism no longer holds position firmly. Blocks used frequently throughout touring seasons typically last three to five years before showing significant wear. If you store your motorhome outdoors year-round, UV exposure can degrade the materials faster, so inspect blocks at the start of each season and replace them if they show cracking or reduced grip strength.
