Pics of our new Kuat NV bike rack on the 05 X5

We went to our local bike shop to look at bike racks and ended up getting this rack. The owners said this is a relatively new company, but that their products are high quality. So far we have been really pleased!

Very nice. Looks similar and seems to work the same as the one we got:

bike racks, bicycle carriers, roof basket, roof box

We got very lucky on ours. It listed for 299 dollars and happened upon it on sale for 99!

Do you have to bolt it to the reciever after you slide it into it? I do on ours so that it doesn't bounce around too much. A bit of a hassle.

I have read about these bike racks. it does sound like the company makes a good carrier. I have been trying to decide what type of rack I want for my X. I decided I was going to go with a hitch mount carrier. I have been looking at the yakima swing daddy. I like the idea of having a carrier that supports the bike from the wheels rather than the frame. However, I am going to be carrying 3-5 bikes when I use it. So, I think the swing daddy might be a better option for me.
