Roof mounted carrier for kids 20inch bike

Guys,
Any recommendations for a roof mounted carrier for kids bikes?

I've got a Thule 591 for my bike but seems really awkward for smaller bikes.

Thanks

Thanks for the reply - thought that would be the case.
Can use the boot - it just gets congested with daughters bike (14 inch) and the wifes wheelchair.

The ones where you take off the front wheel, combined with a full length tyre channel would work well I'd have thought.
Thule OutRide 561 may be 'short' enough for a kids bike.

Have never had a problem with a 591 carrying our 20".

(That was a test fitting - when on the roof it didn't have streamers, and we loaded bikes on the rear with the heaviest closest to the car).

Thanks for the pic - will have another go and move the position of the pads around.
