Carrying a bike on a 2019 Niro 4 Self-Charging Hybrid
Posted: Wed Jul 29, 2020 7:58 pm
I have a heavy e-bike which I want transporting in or on my Kia Niro 4 Hybrid. Now, the car is not cleared for towing, so can't fit a towball. The bike is too heavy for the roof. It's also a bit large to go inside the car without first removing more 'bits' than I care to. Hang it on the back with a 'hang it on the back' type bike rack? No, it seems we can't do that because of the fragility of the rear spoiler (or whatever the feature that carries the horizontal brake light is called). The vertical straps would put too much downward pressure on this spoiler.
The problems seem insurmountable but I was wondering if I could remove that rear spoiler. I'd be happy to keep it safe for reinstallation on the sale of the car. Anyone have any ideas?
