Recommended Bike Rack for a 2020 BMW 2 Series Gran Coupe

Question:

Hello, I am looking for a trailer hitch to fix a bike stand for my BMW Series 2 Gran Coupe. I checked your product Code: C11367, and it says Gran Coupe is Excluded. Are there any options for 2020 Gran Coupe? Thanks much!

There actually aren't any options for the Gran Coupe models, unfortunately. I do still have an option for you to carry your bikes.

Check out the SeaSucker Mini Bomber Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # 298-BM2006. This bike rack uses vacuum cups to stick to the roof of your Gran Coupe and will give you the ability to carry up to 2 bikes that weigh 45 lbs each.

If you didn't like that option then you could also use a trunk mounted rack like the Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack # Y02634. This is going to give you the option to carry up to 2 bikes that weigh 35 lbs each, so you lose a bit of capacity but it's also quite a bit cheaper.

To me this decision would really boil down to how often you'd be using it. If you were using the rack daily or very often, then I'd recommend the roof mounted rack over the trunk rack. But If you were going to be using it not as often, then the Yakima would be my recommendation.
