Could 4 Bike Fit on the Roof of a 2010 Toyota RAV4
Question:
I have a Toyota RAV 4 - 2010 model and want to carry 4 bikes on the roof - I envision mounting 4 of the racks with every other bike facing the opposite direction so they can be slightly closer together. The four bikes weigh less than 20lbs each, so Im well under my 150lb rack limit. Is this a good plan? Anything I havent thought of or need to be aware of? Thanks.

Helpful Expert Reply:
You should be good to go, but the only thing else I would recommend would be for you to arrange your bikes in a similar fashion to how you would load them on the roof of your 2010 Toyota Rav4 and then measure how wide the four bikes are when organized like that. Next, you would want to compare that measurement to the length of the crossbars on your vehicle. This will be a good way for you to determine if you have wide enough bars to carry your bikes.
Most likely you would, but it can't hurt to double check. I attached a review video for the # S64720 that you referenced as well.
