Best Bike Rack for a Mountain Bike, Kids Bike, Carbon Fiber Bike, and Step-Through Womens Bike
Question:
Thanks for the great info on your site. We just bought a Toyota Highlander and will buying a tow-hitch rack for for the first time. The complication is that as a family we have 4 completely different bikes - and occasionally we would want to carry them all at once. They are: - my carbon fiber road bike - my mountain bike - my wifes Public step-through bike which has FENDERS - our 7 year-old daughters kids bike Any recommendations that would fit all of these?? Many thanks-

The best bike rack we have that should accommodate all of your different bikes is the Saris Freedom 4 Bike Platform Rack part # SA4414B. This bike rack is unique in that the frame clamps can attach to either the downtubes or top tubes. This attachment point will be one of the only options we have to carry such a wide variety of bikes. The sliding wheel trays if positioned accordingly should work with kids bikes and the soft rubber cradles shouldn't damaged your carbon fiber bike frame but you will need to be careful how much your tighten them.
I have attached a review video for you as well. You will also want to look through the product page to make sure the wheelbase, weight, and tire size dimensions of your bikes is compatible with this rack.
