Best Bike Rack for a Specialized Como 4.0 Bike
Question:
What is the best/affordable rack for this bike. It has a low pass thru ladies style, so I assume the style where the bike weight is supported by the wheels is the best.

The best/affordable bike rack I have for your Specialized Como 4.0 Bike is the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack part # SA4412B. The Saris Freedom 2 has a 60 lb per bike weight capacity and the unique frame clamp system is actually designed for bikes with odd frame shapes so it will be a perfect match for you. I have even attached a photo for you of a similar bike and how these unique frame clamps work. The other great feature of the Saris Freedom 2 is that is it super lightweight at only 22.5 lbs so you can take it on and off the vehicle. I am not sure what your budget is but this will definitely be one of the more cost effective options for a heavy bike with fenders and drop tube frame.
Please note, you cannot use a wheel mount bike rack on a bike that has fenders.
