So the rack in Cam Zink's new video looks pretty sweet but costs a fortune for what is essentially some mechanical suckers, aluminium plate and pretty basic mounts.

Neither of the cars in my household have roof racks or bars (one has low level rails) so the idea of a rack that doesn't need one appeals. Rockbros and others do lower cost sucker racks, has anyone tried them and what were your thoughts?

I had a Triumph 2500 ... couldn't find a bike rack to fit without some really sketchy bodges.

So I took a punt on a two bike Rockbros sucker rack, figuring four suckers would be more secure than two. It worked out well because when I got a second bike with Boostiness I was able to set up to carry either bike or both bikes at the same time.

Unequivocally I would buy it again. I was using mine 3 x week for about 6 months and never once had an issue.

That's great to hear Reeksy, I'm gonna go for a 3 bike Rockbros rack, car has a glass roof and the suction system actually seems to be the best system for this.
