Question:

Hi. This system looks like a nice idea. INRT201 Will it work on a bed with a bed liner and foldable tonneau cover folded up? Wondering whether the tonneau cover rail might not let the unit work as intended. Bed is 5 1/2 feet and I dont want to drill holes. Thanks, and have a nice day!

The Inno Velo Gripper # INRT201 is a nice way to transport bikes, but won't work with a tonneau since the rail is in the way. There is an option for an easy to use rack that will work when your tonneau is folded up though, with a tailgate pad:

The Softride has tie downs to keep it in place, and uses straps to secure your bikes. It also has cushioned padding so the bikes and your tailgate stay protected.
