Roadster and bike rack

Has anyone out there set up a roadster trunk luggage rack and then added a bike carrier onto it? I have the luggage rack but an trying to carry a bike.

i don't know that it's a good idea...

i would look into rear/trunk mount racks -- there are a LOT of 'em out there now that would be perfect for this.

i think adding on to the luggage rack would end up causing a lot of problems.

I have the Audi rack. There are no adaptors for a bike. Also, there is a very limited weight restriction for using the rack. I believe you should be looking into a trailer hitch type bike rack to avoid any problems.

This may be a more viable alternative

Re: Roadster and bike rack

I would suggest ordering a bird automotive Audi bike rack. They do not touch the paint or body of the Audi, and they hold up to three bikes. you can check out the website at www.birdautomotive.com. I also have one for sale and have pictures if anyone is interested. deewan77@mchsi.com
