MINI Cooper Bike Racks!

If you only have one bike to transport and don't want to spend a lot of your hard earned money for an expensive two-bike rack - here is your solution!

Whether you need to safely transport your bike to and from your local bike shop or annual charity ride — all while keeping the inside of your car clean — Solo™ is a convenient solution. Just place it, tighten the straps, secure your bike, and go! Its compact uni–body frame fits a variety of vehicle makes and models, just like bigger bike racks do, minus the adjustments. It also fits neatly in a trunk or closet, making Solo™ as easy to store as it is to use.

Product Details:

[ ] Uni–body frame requires no frame adjustment for fast, easy installation
[ ] Weighs 2 pounds
[ ] Bike weight limit: 35 pounds
[ ] Low cost, easy installation, convenient size
[ ] Ratcheting hold-down straps secure bike
[ ] Built with 100% recyclable, non-rusting materials

Note: As a 'low cost' bike rack, there are some trade-offs:
+ Lightweight means it is not the most 'sturdy' design - make sure you follow the 35 lbs. maximum weight limit.
+ You will probably need an extra bungy cord or two to prevent the bike from 'rocking'.
+ Depending on the bike, you may need to 'pad' the pedal or wheels from rubbing against the body.
+ The straps to the top of the hatch are no problem if you have 'gaps' in the spoiler where you can feed the straps thru. If you have a 'solid' spoiler, the straps will need to go over the spoiler to the top edge of the hatch - again, if you observe the max weight, this should not be a problem.

See Installation Instructions Here.

Solo™ delivers the simple experience that so many cyclists are looking for from a rack. Low cost, so you can invest more in a bike. Easy installation, so you can grab and go. Compact size, so you can store it almost anywhere. Stability, with reliable straps and hold–downs designed to keep both the bike and the rack right where you want them

It should come as no surprise that the idea for Solo™ came from innovative designer Fabio Pedrini, the genius behind legendary Saris racks like Bones™ and Thelma™.

Solo™ features the same heavy—duty, 100% recyclable plastic found in our Bones™ rack, making Solo™ as strong as it is environmentally—friendly. The injection–molded uni–body frame won't rust and can carry the same kinds of bikes other racks can.

And like other Saris racks, Solo™ is built in Madison, WI, and carries a limited lifetime warranty. So no matter how often you use Solo™, you know you're covered.

Cautions:

[ ] Not intended for use with tandem or recumbent bicycles.
[ ] Never place more than one bicycle on carrier.
[ ] Secure properly and adjust for even load distribution.
[ ] Do not mount to any type of trailer or recreational vehicle.
[ ] Not recommended for off-road use or for use at speed exceeding 65 mph.
[ ] Remove from vehicle when not in use.
[ ] To avoid bike to car contact - pad as needed (pads not included).

If you have a full suspension mountain bike, consider the 'Tube Top' to simplify mounting the bike.

Whether you have a standard frame, or a 'non-traditional' bike frame, here is the adapter to simplify mounting onto the rack type bike racks such as the Yakima King Joe or Quickback. This bar will make it easier to mount the bikes nice and level, and prevent your frame from getting all scratched up over time. If you have shift cables running under the top bar, you can use this bar to prevent damage there as well.

This bar is especially effective for ladies bikes with the low center bar, or for mountain bikes with full suspensions. It is also effective on standard frames by keeping the rack from touching the frame.

[ ] Installs quickly and securely on a wide range of bikes

[ ] Keeps your bike mounted solidly on single and dual mast mounts

[ ] Larger diameter tubing and anti-rotation inserts for greater stability

[ ] Larger molded collars are gentle with your bike stem and seat post

A perfect easy-to-use rear mount bike rack for your MINI. Fit's all MINI Hatchbacks, Gen 1 and Gen 2. 6 straps makes this rack very secure.

The QuickBack is the world’s fastest-installing, easiest-to-use trunk/hatch mount. So you’ll be loaded up and off to the races (or campground) in no time flat. The integrated adjustment knob lets you effortlessly adjust arm angles to gently cradle your bikes. And with its brand-new labeled strap system and striking design, the QuickBack completely redefines what a trunk bike rack is supposed to be.

# Carries 2 or 3 bikes depending on model
# Narrow arm design fits a wide variety of bikes
# Arms quickly fold down when not in use
# Premium Tri-Padded feet and coated padded metal buckles protect your vehicle’s paint job
# SwitchBlade™ anti-sway cradles eliminate bike-to-bike contact

# Compatible with most factory spoilers
# Includes glass hatch hooks for glass trunk or gate mounts
# Passive security system included with a steel-reinforced strap that goes into the trunk

If you have a ladies bike with a low upper bar, or a full suspension mountain bike, take a look at the Bike Adapter Bar. This bike adapter bar greatly simplifies loading and removing your bikes from these racks!

No modifications required to the car and no tools required. Do not use the rear wiper when installed. Fits Mini Cooper and Cooper S. If your MINI has a rear spoiler, there MUST be a gap between the spoiler and 3rd brake light to allow the upper straps to reach the upper edge of the rear hatch.

WEIGHT LIMITS
Quickback 2: Two bikes at 35 lbs. each (70 lbs. maximum).
Quickback 3: Three bikes at 30 lbs. (90 lbs maximum).

See Installation Instructions.

Touring Bike Holder - check availability before ordering.
Transport your mile-munching two-wheeler directly overhead with this rugged, rooftop fixture. It accommodates bicycles with frame diameters of up to 80 mm and locks to prevent bad seeds from taking you and your bike for a ride. Requires installation of the Roof Rack Base Support System.

Fork Mount
A quick-release fastener (with lock) for your bike's front fork and a belt fastener for its rear wheel combine to securely take your ride miles away from home. No pedaling required. Requires installation of the Roof Rack Base Support System.

Bike Lift
Bike goes up. Bike goes down. And you don't even have to lift with your legs. It's all thanks to a special mechanism allowing you to lift almost any sized bicycle onto your roof rack-and lower it-without even breaking a sweat. Requires installation of the Roof Rack Base Support System. See Installation Instructions.

Rear Mount Bike Rack - Hatchback only
Yet another ingenious cargo accessory designed with the MINI in mind, this lightweight, aluminum rear-mounted carrier lets you secure two bicycles to the back of your MINI without restricting access to the boot. In fact, it folds down so you can open your tailgate in two shakes of a lamb's tail. And anti-theft mounting means it's going to stay put. A separate Installation Kit is required, see below.

Rear Mount Bike Rack Installation Kit

For your 2007+ R56 MINI Cooper and Cooper S Hatchback only. (Rear mount bike rack does not fit the Convertible, CLUBMAN, or COUNTRYMAN.)

User comments on the rear bike carrier:

They made two holes in the bumper, where the rack inserts. A black plastic escutcheon surrounds each hole.

You put the rack's steel shafts into the holes at an angle. When you lower the rack frame, the shafts slide forward and lock the rack in place. There is a key lock securing the rack to the car, and two more locks that hold the bikes in place.

It is very well made: steel on the load-bearing parts and aluminum and plastic elsewhere. It is very easy for me to load and unload the bikes -- something that would be very difficult for me with a top-carrier. An arm holds the bike frame and two tire-stops with straps hold the wheels in their track.

Stowing the rack inside the car is not possible unless you fold down the back seats. I just remove it and hang it up in the garage when it's not on the car.

It is possible to rotate the rack backward and open the boot without contact, whether the bikes are loaded or not.

Removal is very easy: release the clamp on each side, tilt up, pull out. Done. (and quickly folds flat to store).
