Bike rack for swift

[KK]

Hi Guys,

Anyone using bike rack for swift? I read in some posts that rear rack
is not so safe and roof mounted ones are expensive (20K ?).

Can someone share their experiences? What is the place to look for
these things? Anyone doing custom racks that are economical?
I have a Rockrider 5.2 .

i have a rear rack for swift.. accomodates 2 bikes easily but 3 is asking for trouble.. with 3 bikes one of them seem to protrude beyond the width..roof top ones are advisable if you plan to be hassle free without stressing to look out for trouble on the side mirrors.. and definitely suggested if the bikes are carbon fibre...also the rear racks cause scratches on the frames and hence the car needs to be dead slow on speed breakers to avoid damagin the bikes..

roof top ones options are Thule 20k+ for 1 bike but <30k for 2.

Kynkyny racing also makes roof top one(<17k for 2) in which the front wheel comes off; bikes is stable and completely safe this way..problem is the space reqd for the front wheel..

am going to fix the roof rack from Kynkyny very very soon..and also continue to have the rear rack for additional requirement..so this way i plan to carry 5 bikes..3 on top and 2 behind if required..

Regards

Sriram

I own the Kynyny racing roof rack. It is awesome indeed! I got them recently and the longest I did with bikes on them is till Mysore. I would totally recommend them.

Vivek was telling me that the only car them may not be able to install it on is a Swift due to the door design. Hope they have found a way around it!
