What Brand of Bike Rack is a Good Fit For Your Car, Truck, or SUV? by:Gary Lindsey

There are many bike rack companies that make trunk bike rack systems for multiple SUVs. Among these bike rack system companies are Allen, Hollywood Racks, Yakima, Thule, Saris and a few others.

All the various trunk bicycle rack work almost the same way. Most of them strap onto the trunk of a auto and secure your cycle to your car for secure transport. Nothing else to it.

Allen, Thule, Hollywood Racks and a few others have trunk mount bike rack systems that will hold more than one bike and can mount three bikes. This freedom is useful when bicycling as a group and ride sharing.

Some models that I would recommend are the Saris Bones, Hollywood Racks Baja Rack, Allen AL102A and several others. All these trunk-mounted bike rack options are just a starting point.
