Trunk Mount Bike Carrier for a 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer Sedan with Rear Spoiler

Question:

HRE3 Bike Rack - Does this fit a 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer sedan even with the spoiler?

Since your 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer sedan has the tall spoiler, the Hollywood Racks Express trunk mount bike carrier, # HRE3, will not work. I checked with Malone and you can use the Malone Hanger Trunk Bike Rack for 3 Bikes - Adjustable Arms # MPG2139. I have included links to videos on all of these racks for you.

If you will be carrying any bikes that do not have a top frame bar that goes straight across (like a typical men's bike would) then I recommend using bike adapter bar # 64005. This will allow you to carry those bikes more level and will provide better ground clearance. I have to use these adapters and without them my wife's bike would be at a severe angle and I would not be able to load my son's bike at all. I have linked a video showing how the adapter works.
