Anyone know of any good roof racks that will work with the tC2's? I remember seeing a post about them a while back but it didnt really say if there was any or what would work or wouldn't.

If anyone knows of any that would be great im really interested in one.

^^ HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

Yakima makes them but it doesn't seem any others have jumped on board yet and created a fit kit. I know because I'm shopping them myself right now.

 

I know I saw a tC2 with a Yakima one on somewhere in this forum. Look around

 

I looked on Yakima's website but they have so many options i didn't know what to go with lol

 

Your right...its "08superwhitetc" that has the roof racks from my understanding...although like me, he has a cement tC...

For bike? Depends on what kind of bike and how you plan to carry it. I have a Cannondale Flash 1 29er and there are 2 problems with that when it comes to bike racks: 1. Its a 29er, so the giant wheels give the bike leverage when the weight starts to throw around on top of the car. I need something really strong up top. And now 2. It's got a lefty fork, so if I go the fork mount route, I not only have to take the front caliper off to get the wheel off, but I also have to buy a special mount just to hold the fork on.

For these reasons I think I'm going to source out the "Highroller" as it seems to offer the most stability...but it's also the most expensive.

 

I honestly probably won't put a bike it but if I do it will be a standard size bmx bike I used to ride when I was in school, if I could sell the bike I could get my coilovers lol

 

Then why do you need a roof rack? Skis and snowboards fit in the car and the roof has no real capacity to hold anything more than a bike or two.

If it's just for the hipster car trend of having one, save your pennies and put it into something actually cool like suspension or wheels.

 

Well seeing that I'm not a "hipster" I'm still very fond of the way they look and I won't have one till my wheels and suspension is put on the car.

 

yeah i dont like the roof rack much on the car doesnt fit right i went to the roof rack store over by my house seen pictures it will run about $420 second guessing about that

 

And I use my roof rack guys, not there cause I have rack envy, just hated to put my bike in the car constantly

 

Where'd you get that? Looks nice

 

It's a Yakima rack, I painted the bars, fairing, bike attachment and towers flat white and my friend painted the design on the fairing

 

Ragingbull78 do you have pics of your car?
