Solution For Carrying 2 Bikes On 2018 BMW 4 Series Convertible

Question:

The website confirms this trunk rack will fit a 2018 BMW 4 series, does that include the convertible model? If not is there a trunk bike rack that will fit my vehicle? Thank you

I have a possible solution for you to carry 2 bikes on your 2018 BMW 4 Series convertible, but there are not any trunk-mounted bike racks for your convertible so you will want to go the route of using a hitch-mounted bike rack. If you don't have a trailer hitch receiver yet then I would go with Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Class I - 1-1/4" # C11367 which offers a simple bolt-on installation.

For a bike rack, I recommend the Thule DoubleTrack Pro 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches # TH92BJ. This is a very versatile 2-bike carrier that has adjustable cradles to attach to the bike frame, making it compatible with bikes that have fenders or baskets.
