Let's see your racks

jay8s · 08-06-2022, 04:06 PM

Just picked up an F31, and need some inspiration. What rack, bike tray, and cargo box do you have.

Help me spend my money!

Spent hours there. Looking for some better info from people with set ups.

I have Thule Aeroblades with Kuat Trio fork-mount trays. This is the second F31 I’ve had them on and love them. The OEM racks stand far too high for me

Bmw cross bars and bmw bike racks.

Nice racks so far. eff32fl wins.

What, no cargo box users want to show off?

clemson, how tall off the root does yours stand? I like how low the roof line is, and want to stay as close to it as I can. My wife's VW sportwagen has a low rack which helps make it look shorter than it really is.

Below is my wagon when it had the roof box installed. The article and composition are from the original owner. This was the OEM rack system, and BMW 460 roof box.

Hell yea! I travel down to FL for work (driving to Miami Monday actually). Where do you ride? I like to bring bikes on work trips!

Thule T2 Pro XT on a stealth hitch. I had the roof rack on my last car and couldn't stand the noise or reduced fuel mileage. This keeps the clean look of the car whenever it's not in use.
