I just bought a RANS Sreamer and I would like to know the best carrier for it. I have a Toyota
pickup with a six-foot bed. The bike is longer than that. Any suggestions?

I have used my '91 Ford Ranger with the short bed many times. You just have to turn the bike around
backwards so the boom goes over the tailgate. I have made a rack with clamps I bought through
Performance bike and a piece of plywood to mount to. No problems. But I usually haul it on Windstar
Minivan's Saris roof rack, with an Atoc rack as an addition. I can load by myself.Jim Vincent Vision R50 - RANS Screamer

Bob, I have both the Rans screamer and 2 GRRs. The best rack for my money is the Draftmaster. It
takes a class 3 hitch but once you use it you will be quite confidient that your tandem will be
secure. There not cheap but what in this sport is.Take a look at their web site www.draftmaster.com

Seriously, though: you could put a roof bar on top of the pickup's cab and bolt on a fork mount for
the bike. It'd look a little odd with the bike pointing up at a 45 degree angle, but no weirder than
the Draftmaster rack.Jeff
