Default Re: Best for MPG -- Roof rack or Tow Hitch Mounted Rack?

I'm not sure if you can do this-depends on if you can easily mount these to the back floor of the cargo area-and if the bike can roll in on it's rear wheel without hitting the roof and if it can go deep enough.

You bolt these to the floor and the bike front forks lock to the bed of the folded down seat/cargo area. The bike does not move and the forks take minimal shock. The front wheel can be placed next to it. Keeps the load balanced (can and keeps aerodynamics better (less drag), and the closer to the center of the SUV, the better for overall balance as well.
