Recommended Trunk-Mount Bike Rack for 2010 Cadillac CTS  

Question:

What trunk bike rack do you recommend for a 2010 Cadillac CTS? It is going on my husbands car and I really dont want to scratch his car as he is doing me the favor of letting my bike get put on it for transport. I need it for just two bikes, no more

Expert Reply:

The trunk-mount racks I can recommend for your husband's 2010 Cadillac CTS will depend on which vehicle version we're considering.

If it is the 2-door coupe, then our only choice is the SeaSucker Komodo Bike Rack for 1 Bike - Fork Mount. This is a Vacuum Cup mounted carrier that works amazingly but is quite pricey. Part # 298-BK1910-AB. This one is blue, but it comes in 3 other colors.

If the CTS is a 4-door sedan then the Thule OutWay # TH45JV that you referenced is the best choice. This advanced rack is USA-made and features the patented FitDial system for easy installation. It also uses the latest technology in the bike cradling system to gently support your 2 bikes and it features built-in locks for the rack and for your bikes. This is a superb product that will serve you well for years to come.

If your husband has the wagon version then I suggest the Saris Bones 2, part # SA805BL in black. The Saris is also an American-made product that is protected by a limited lifetime warranty.

I linked review videos for each of the referenced bike racks that will help you see their features and installation. No matter which you choose, you'll want to ensure that the mounting point on the vehicle's rear area is clean and free of dirt and grit that might cause abrasion to the car's paint finish.
