A system for supporting and carrying bicycles. The system cooperating with the interior surfaces of the seat post engagement tube and includes an adjustable post having a first end and a second end, the first end having an attachment mechanism adapted for connecting the post to a support surface. The second end having at least two generally parallel surface areas at an adjustable distance from one another, so that the distance between the generally parallel areas can be enlarged or reduced in a generally radial manner to create or maintain line contact with the interior surface of the seat post engagement tube.
