I'm pretty sure Subaru dealers use Thule when you buy a new car.

 

I've got a Wagon so I just pop the front wheel off and into the back it goes.

 

You don't have a tow bar by any change do you?

 

I do have a towbar but have been told by a few people that the towbar mounted hanging style bike racks are no good for carbon bikes. While my bike is only partially carbon, I know I'll end up getting a full carbon bike in the near future.

 

 

you're going to want a rack with extension for those bars. check out here: http://www.roofracks...riers/roof.html

 

I'm liking the look of the Thule FreeRide 532 and the ProRide 591.

I don't really have a budget per se... I've seen the thule ones online and the style i'm interested in can be had for between $200-$300 which I don't mind paying. The Rhino one I bought yesterday says it fits the thule crossbars so I'm unsure if the thule one will fit the Subaru crossbars. There's a place fairly close by that sells thule so i'll check it out there.

 

I just need to get back on the bike.

Awesome pics and videos guys. Watched a few videos with my kids last night and they were demanding to know why we didn't go.
