I hope this has not been asked before (I’ve looked over the five pages of i20 posts) but I have a dilemma regarding the transport of two mountain bikes using my i20. Hyundai appear to offer two solutions, namely roof bar carriers and a towbar carrier. Two roof bar carriers plus the roof bars themselves add up to about £300 and the towbar plus wiring plus bike carrier totals about £350. I was hoping for a much cheaper solution. I certainly don’t want to lift the bikes to roof height and I have no requirement to tow anything! I’m guessing that, as Hyundai don’t offer a carrier which attaches to the tailgate, they don’t approve of them being used? I have reservations about loading the rear door/bumper this way and, besides, I’ve found that my ‘Sparkle Blue’ paintwork is very easily scratched.

So, does anyone carry bikes on their i20 and if so, how?

Thanks, John. Don't know how I missed that post. :thumbsup:

I was warned off a rear mounted carrier by a colleague who found that the straps ended up wearing away the paint. Had a look and you can see definate marks.
