We use the Thule fork mount carrier to put the Reign X on the car. No way round it.

I'd steer away from using a pro-ride with any bike with a box section frame (like the Giant's hydroformed downtube). As the clamp is based around a round or oval downtube, it doesn't grip square tubes very well. I had one bike flop out of the clamp in a stiff crosswind and I've heard from a few people that I'm not alone.
