I need a trunk mount bike rack for a 2007 Scion tC that will fit my Townie beach cruiser. Do you have any? Im a female.

Expert Reply:

The Hollywood Racks Gordo # HRG2 that you referenced has been confirmed to fit your 2007 Scion tC, but since Hollywood Racks has determined that your vehicle has a soft bumper I wouldn't recommend going with a trunk mounted bike rack unless the bikes you plan to carry are very lightweight. Beach cruisers are pretty heavy so this wouldn't be your best option.

Instead I would strongly recommend you go with a hitch and a hitch mounted bike rack. This way you won't have to worry about your bumper getting damaged, and you'll have a much more secure rack setup.

For a hitch you would want the Draw Tite Hitch part # 24827. I attached an install video for you to check out, or any local qualified mechanic could install this very easily.

The most popular bike rack we carry that has been confirmed to fit this vehicle is the Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack part # S64670. This rack has a ton of positive reviews from our customers who have tried it. Check out the review video I attached for more info.
