Hey all,

Any recommendations for some roof racks for a liftback version? Wife has gotten into mountain biking, and wants to drag the bike around, so I've got two options to keep the bike out of the car. Looked at rhino racks for a roof rail system, but they seemed to only be suited for the wagon body type, at least they only listed the wagon type in the 'find my car' area.

If no good options exist for this, I'm open to getting a tow bar installed, what are my options there?

I currently have Whispbar cross rails on my Superb wagon and they are great, the Flush mount would look good on the sedan

These are very quiet, you don't notice they are there.

Avoid the Prorack P-bar if you are leaving the roof rack on, as they make a lot of wind noise

Ahh nice one. They certainly look that part, thanks for the link. Got to admit, they do look okay on the car in the photos. :)
