Most any bike shop can order them. Be sure not to get a cheep one that straps to your spare or you may end up seeing your bike(s) fall of the back. Take your ride when you go to order it so they can see exactly what you have.

Don't most auto stores have that sort of thing?  If you live in Canada....just go to Canadian Tire...the bike racks even feature Suzuki vehicles (Grand Vitara & Swift) on the box art!!  :o

I've been to a Canadian Tire and No we don't have an auto store like that around here.  I wish we did.  There getting better but still not quite like them.

But don't you live in the US?  You guys have so many auto stores like AutoZone and Pep Boys, not to mention the online stores like JEGs.

I wish Canada had that many stores...

Yea, I live in Michigan.  Here in Michigan you don't have a all in one auto store.

Auto Zone carries this, Meijers carrys that,  Tractor Supply Company carriey another thing,  and then you have to go to Toys are us!!!


P.S.  Pep Boys didn't make it around here.  All we have are Auto Zones, Advance Autos, and some Small Auto Stores.

No doubt Lil Truck that is SO gay!
i'm born and raised in So.cal and there is a Pep Boys on every corner....i was so jazzed when the "boys" were starting to come into Michigan.....then like all but a few stores closed  >:(
thankfully the nearest one isn't far just a short trip down Gratiot to Roseville or on Van Dyke in Sterling Hieghts.  But the sad part is they only carry (in stock) full sized truck accessories.  anything for a track/kick needs to be special ordered.
and i've looke and looked and never found a spare mounted bike rack at Meijer's....that was the first place i looked because i thought for sure they would have one.

and i totally feel ya on that no centralized all-in-one truck part place in Mich.  LOL  But i still love my Autozone.
