Expert Reply:

I recommend the Saris Bones, part # SA801BL.

This rack is an adjustible, trunk mounted rack that has a sleek, easy install design that also folds up when not in use, so you don't need to remove it.

Since the 2016 Honda CR-V has a hatchback, you'll need the Hatch Huggers, part # SA3035, to easily mount to the hatch by threading through its gap without having to clip to the more sensitive parts of the rear hatch.

If you plan on carrying a Women's, Step Through or Aggressive (BMX or Mountain) Framed bike, you'll want to use a Swagman Frame Adapter Bar, part # 64005. This will level out the bikes and help minimize the risk of damage.

Additionally, 10 foot cable lock like part # e98891 can easily increase the security of your rig and help deter theft.

I've included a video of the Hatch Huggers and the Saris Bones in action so you can better see how they work.
