A bicycle rack that allows multiple bicycles to be secured in a fanned out position includes a mounting section, a main body, and a plurality of bicycle-receiving subassemblies. The mounting section provides a means for supporting the main body and attaching the bicycle rack to a vehicle, while the main body supports the plurality of bicycle-receiving subassemblies. Each of the plurality of bicycle-receiving subassemblies includes a frame-receiving cradle, a first pedal-receiving clamp, a second pedal-receiving clamp, and a pedal arm. The frame-receiving cradle provides a telescoping structure for supporting the down tube of a bicycle, while the first pedal-receiving clamp and the second pedal-receiving clamp provide a means for supporting the pedals of the bicycle, wherein the pedal arm offsets the second pedal-receiving clamp from the first pedal-receiving clamp. The main body includes a primary beam and a secondary beam; the secondary beam being detachable when fewer bicycles are transported.
