Hi,

I'm looking for an inexpensive 2-3 bike trunk rack for my 00 corolla to take my bike to nearby trails in socal. Quick search reveals saris, thule, yakima superjoe, hollywood baja series for around $60-90. mtbr.com doesn't have great things to say about the superjoe series, but i was wondering what experiences people had.

thanks.

I used the Saris Bones II on my Miata for a while and I thought it was great. I made sure to keep the contact areas waxed well to avoid as much paint marring as possible.

my parents got a good old bell rack from walmart so i could bring my bike to college. it seemed to work pretty well. and it was only 30 bucks.
