Description
Heading out to the trails with your bikes? Need a better way to get them there instead of shoving them in the car with the front wheel off? Lucky for you, there’s a bike rack for everyone, able to fit all car types and all bike types! A bike rack is an underrated, extremely vital part of any biker’s collection of gear. This makes it so easy to load up your bikes and hit the trail, or simply bring your bike with you on a longer trip. Most bike racks make it quite simple to load up the bike and go, making sure that your bike is secure and safe along the way. There are many different styles of bike racks, each with their own unique application. Check the Sizing notes to confirm which stype of bike rack is right for you!
How to choose
- Roof: A roof bike rack is a very versatile option. It is stable and keeps your bikes out of the way without blocking access to vehicle doors. Before choosing this option, be sure you are okay lifting the bike onto the roof and that your vehicle will clear low-clearance garages or ceilings.
- Hitch: Compared to the roof rack the hitch rack is a great option that requires minimal lifting. Be sure you have a hitch receiver installed on your vehicle. They’re simple to install and easy to use. The only downside to this option is that backing up, maneuvering and access into rear doors could be an issue.
- Trunk: A trunk rack is typically used on sedans or hatchbacks. This type of rack fastens to trunks or hatches with a system of straps and hooks. Trunk racks are very easy to use but note that they do limit access to the back of the car. Make sure that the rack and bikes are properly secured before driving with this rack on your car.
