Mountain Bike being damaged being transported on gravel roads
Hey Everyone,
I'm new to mountain biking and have recently bought a new Specialized bike. However, most trails are on gravel roads and it has been doing damage to my bike. I have a car and a bike carrier that sits fairly high on the car but its not enough. If I drive 20mph it's not a problem... but if I want to be somewhere in a decent amount of time it becomes a problem.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!!

I don't know what type of vehicle you own, but try to get a quick release installed for the quick removal of your front wheel. After removing the wheel, you should be able to either fit your bike inside the rear passenger's compartment, or inside the trunk.
