Trunk Bike Rack Recommendation for 2015 Mini Cooper and 2011 Chevy Cruze

Question:

I am looking for a bike rack that will work with a 2015 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4 door and a 2011 Chevy Cruz trunk. Is there one that will work for both? I need one that will work for 2 cruiser bikes

I did some checking and it looks like the best trunk bike rack that fits both your 2015 Chevy Cruze and your 2015 Mini Cooper is going to be the Yakima Fullback trunk rack part # Y02634. This is one of the nicest trunk racks on the market and it doesn't cost an arm and a leg like some of the other racks.

If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Kuat Bike Frame Adapter Bar # UB01 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
