any 2009 Ford Edge trunk bike rack options?

[cb.lilly]

I posted earlier about a truck rack fit for my Chevy Colorado. But also had a quesion about using a trunk bike rack on the 2009 Ford Edge. It looks like there's no options for a strap on style bike rack for this car? Does anyone know why if this true? Are there any other alternatives if there are no 2009 Ford Edge trunk bike rack options? thanks.

Unfortunately no bike rack manufacturers have trunk bike racks compatible with your 2009 Ford Edge. This is due to the unsafe upper clip mounting points. The small rear spoiler located up top does not allow for a solid connection of the trunk bike rack strap clips and is prone to fail when the weight of bike is added.

However the Yakima Q Tower roof rack system is an excellent alternative. Mounts to your Ford Edge roof top using the Yakima Q102 clips and Yakima Q Towers combination, along with a pair of 58" length crossbars. You can then connect any Yakima roof mount bike racks directly to the Yakima Q Tower system crossbars.
