To those who ride bicycles

Buy a Kuat hitch mounted carrier. I have a Sherpa but I doubt you'll be disappointed with any unless you buy a feature that doesn't fit your needs. Also, Kuat support is top notch.

I rarely take our bikes more than an hour away, so this one has worked fine without breaking the bank. It was less than $100. With the bikes off it also flips down, so the hatch can be opened. They make smaller ones if you have fewer bikes.

SRAM Eagle 1x12 early adopter version? I've seen some cool vintage derailleurs, but that's a new one for me.

 

Almost looks like the old Suntour pattern (with the exception of the guard over the forward pivot) from mid 70s.

I still have some old pebble-finish Campy and 80s Shimano XT stuff in my parts stash.

Guess I'm that guy . . . I don't throw metal, parts, tools away. Ever.

GO WITH some sort of rear rack. I use one in the back of my Gen 3 ....it can handle up to four bikes...if needed. most of the time, I'm good with one-or-two bikes..as I do my daily ride..
