Bike Rack

Mozen · 02-27-2011, 10:14 PM

Well im still deployed and while ive been away my old man has been carefully looking after my Z...until now. He decided that while he was changing the wheels back to the winter setup to figure out a way to get his brand new bike on the back

and this is the result:

The bike is a Cannondale Hi-Modulus Carbon Synapse, with a Sram Red groupset and Easton EC90 Carbon Clincher Wheel-set

I have no clue what the bike rack is, however i dont recommended trying the same thing.

I agree on not doing that, I got one of the best bike racks, but it on my 350 once and dented the trunk....

Ouch. The only way to safely do that with a Z is with a tow hitch rack or a Boofsquire roof (hatch) rack.

Hey now...dads' are special. Better he shows you what he's doing versus finding out later. And he is garaging, and looks l to be taking good care of your 370Z. Life is short, let him enjoy it.

P.S. Thank you for serving our country.

Nice bike!

He didnt actually go anywhere with the bike and rack on the back...that i know of. Rather since he knows how i feel about jerry rigged contraptions on the car...he took plenty of pics to tease me with!
