New ride for my ride...
I ended up getting the BMW bike attachment. My old 'universal' attatchment was a no go on the BMW racks.
Overall I am very happy with it. Easy enough to load up the other other ride... and works well. Still LOVE the Carbon in full sun! |

Is that the one that swings down so you can load at ground level?

No its the standard one. It tightens on the frame. The trick I found is that you grab on the fork and low on the frame and get the wheels in the rack and then you are good to go...

I'm looking for a bike rack solution and was wondering how you like the BMW rack? I was looking into Thule but it's really expensive. Can you feel the higher center of gravity much?

I must say the rack functions very well. Easy install and no i think it would be impossible to notice the bike up there when driving. The thing you do notice is wind noise. I think you would notice that with any rack system.
I have ordered ski racks so we will see how that goes. The bike rack is nice. |
