That's one Kick A** MINI Drew!!

 

Yeah...and watch people do the *"L" Sign*!!

 

Option 2) Tailgate rack?

 

Or a minifini or minidomore with the bike rack attachment. Pricey but works.

 

Anybody have pics of their MINI with full rack? I'll be putting mine on Friday when it arrives and then shortly after making a custom basket for it. I'd have a rack on my car even if I never hauled bikes around. I just like the look of racks...

here a quick shot of my old MK3 Golf with a custom basket made out of a road sign...lol

 

Hadn't seen many, so wasn't sure they were out there!

 

Thanks, will check them out!!

I have a superJoe 2. Can't guarantee fit, as I haven't tried it on my Mini yet, but I think it will work.

 

i've had mine on since i installed it in May. i'll take the bike tray off every now and then, especially in the rain. i'm thinking about removing the rack since i don't see myself carrying my bike too much in the winter. i'm not sure yet though. i think it looks pretty good with the base rack installed.

my only fear is where the water is going that collects in the rain gutter. does it go inside the roof when it rains?

 

No offense intended but I would never put one of those on my MINI or any other car I own. They will mar the finish where the feet go, but more than that, I just don't like my expensive bikes dangling off the back like that. Hitchmounts are an acceptable alternative, but I think a roofrack on a MINI is a natural fit since it's relatively low to the ground.

 

None taken, just saying there are other options out there. I have mine from a previous vehicle sitting in my parents garage. Going to see if it works when I drive the MINI back for Christmas.
