G35 coupe + 2 bikes

Postby kimis G35 » Sat Jan 30, 2010 4:08 pm



We need to get two bikes down south with us on March break. Is this doable? 2004 G35 Coupe

Bike rack? Fit in vehicle?

Any ideas, Kim

Are they special bikes? To be honest the G coupe looks horrible with bikes. The only way I can see this if you get those hidden tow hitch and get an adapter for bikes. To me it seems more sense just rent 2 there or something. How far are you going?

Would check hidden hitch like zozo says and then the yakima site for a rack

I was at the Tour de OC (Ornage County) and saw a guy with this rack on his G. He said it worked great and I was thinking of getting one myself.

Check it out.

I routinely take two road bikes within my coupe. This is done by folding down the rear seat to create an opening to the trunk, removing both wheels from each bike, then packing the frames in through the trunk, separating the frames from each other with a blanket for padding, and placing the four wheels into various spaces under, between and on top of the bike frames. If you need to carry a suitcase, I use a soft bag and place it inside, where the rear seat is located, on top of the bike frames that protrude into the passenger compartment.
