Please recommend a crossbar 2 bike rack system for my 2020 Ford F150 6-1/2 foot bed with Retrax XR tonneau cover. The bikes weigh about 35 # each. Thx.

Expert Reply:

We can get your 2020 Ford F-150 with a 6-1/2 foot bed set up with a crossbar rack system which will work with your RetraxONE XR Hard Tonneau Cover # RTT-60373, and the best option is going to be from Rhino-Rack:

- Rhino-Rack Vortex Crossbar System for Retrax XR Series and Mountain Top EVO-M Tonneau Covers # RRVA180B-RRRLT600

This system is the best overall value for a crossbar rack system because it is more economical than similar options while not sacrificing anything in regards to quality.

Then you can add a pair of roof-mounted bike racks from Rhino-Rack, and you can choose from either a wheel-mounted rack or a fork-mounted rack:

- Wheel Mount: Rhino-Rack Hybrid Roof Bike Rack # RRRBC050

- Fork Mount: Rhino-Rack MountainTrail Rooftop Bike Carrier # RBC035

I like the wheel mount more because you don't have to take your bike's wheel off to transport your bikes. Either will fit seamlessly on the rack system, and also come with locks for the rack and your bikes to provide an extra layer of security.
