Roof Rack and Bike Rack Recommendations for 2006 Coachmen Pop-Up Camper

Question:

I have a 2006 coachmen clipper sport camper 116ST that I’d like to put cross bars on as the ultimate goal is to have a rack for 4 bikes. I believe based on what I’ve read is that these cross bars will work and I can add bike racks. Is this correct? Or would you point me to a different cross bars system? Also, which bike rack would you recommend for me? Thanks!

Yes, the SportRack Pop-Up Camper Roof Rack # SR1020 will work for the exact purpose that you mentioned and most roof mount bike racks will fit on these crossbars.

For a bike rack I recommend using the Malone Pilot # MPG2103 for any bikes that don't have a front fender, and then the RockyMounts TieRod # RKY1012 for any bikes that do have a front fender. These are cost-effective bike racks that still have good quality so you can be confident that they will do a great job at transporting your bikes.

The Malone comes with a lock for the bike and then the RockyMounts gives the option to add locks for the the bike and rack when you use one of their lock core kits # RKY0332.
