I do not recommend roof mounted bike racks. Hitch mounted rack is the way to go.

A hitch mounted rack is the way to go. It is a complete pain in the butt getting the bikes up there.

Yup, hitch is the way to go!

I would agree. Also, I know people that forgot they had a bike up there, and well, the result was not good (low overhang/drive through).

Well yea... lol. I have a roof rack on my Focus ST, but it's relatively low to the ground. No idea how I'd get my bike on top of the Bronco Sport without a ladder.

Main reason I got a factory tow pkg.

My brother-in-law and his garage. Big oops moment!

Yep. It happens, unfortunately.

I agree. I couldn't imagine getting my Harley on the roof of my BS.

Wow, great setup! Roof racks are suitable only for small cars, not our case. Can't imagine how to place my bikes(these) in another case...

I use the inside mounting rack only. I can't have my babies exposed to the elements. Two bikes upright was the main selling point for me.

Yet you keep Snoopy up there?

I can't see them fitting. You can actually get 2 bikes in there? I'm also not a fan of having to take the front wheel off every time too.

All better now

Front wheels off. Saddle lowered depending on size.
