Where to put the stinkin bikes
Been rackin my head to long as to the best way to carry our aluminum frame bikes to the point of overthinking. My wish is for a bike rack for two bikes. Sorry in advance for asking a common question...

We use a Curt Front Mount hitch on the truck with a Swagman XC2 bike rack. Very solid and I like having my eye on the bikes.
Just my thoughts the first place I wouldn't carry bikes is hanging off the back of the 5er, even with a wheels supported like our Swagman, too much bouncing.
Second would be on the front of the TV, more bugs than pin box, blocks air flow to the engine, possibly blocks head lights and turn signals. Subject to damage from being backed into.
I do like the roof rack, but not better than my Pin box mount.
