Non-hitch bike racks for 2024 X5

ElectronicMi · 10-09-2023, 12:05 PM

Hey all, wasn't able to find 2024 X5 with a hitch, and would rather not have to go down the route of getting a stealthHitch installed. Are there any non hitch bike racks that are compatible with an X5? I have heard that the rear spoiler may not be durable enough to withstand / attach a bike rack to.

Are you looking for a trunk rack? Most of those are "how can I scratch my car the fastest" products. I'd consider taking the front wheel off and putting it inside the vehicle.

Roof mount? Order a pair of cross bar and a bike roof mount is one alternative. Otherwise there is some kind of trunk mount

It would be cheaper to install a hitch than it will be to repair the damage caused by a trunk-mounted bike rack.
