  1. Hi

    I am just getting into cycling and I bought a mountain bike but I am tired of stuffing it into the car. I need some advise on how to choose a rack to purchase. I need the rack to be able to work on a sedan, two door lift back and a station wagon. I am not sure if one rack can work on all these type of cars.

    What should I look at?

    Thanks in advance.

  2. In my opinion:

    The cheapest thing would be purchasing something like a Saris Bones trunk mount rack that you could switch between vehicles.

    The best thing would be installing hitches on each vehicle and purchasing a hitch mount rack that you could switch between vehicles.

    Notice that Scotty didn't mention a roof rack. They're usually expensive - especially when you drive your car into the garage with the bike still up there.

    I can laugh about it now, but in all seriousness - stay away from them.

    Or don't park your car in the garage!😄
