Default I am getting a 2002 M1, it is about 42-45 pound.

Thing is DH bike does not have quick release for the front / rear wheel. So you can not just pop out the front wheel and put it on the roof rack. I think I need to buy another bike holder that fits at the back....

Thanks for your response tho

Default Nah, Yakima and Thule have racks that mount the bike without removing the front wheel.

MUCH more secure versus any rack that you hang off the back (except perhaps a hitch rack).

Default Funny trivia - Most of you who are piloting Schwinn's are riding bikes I designed.

I worked there for nearly 5 years designing frames for Schwinn & Yeti... now I'm just a Opto-Electronic Engineer chump, but at least I'm driving an S4!! ($$ in the bike biz sucks)

Thought you might appreciate the tidbit.
