Hey Leah, how is it to carry that rack for taking off the car? I've been
thinking about installing a hitch on the Impala so I can use a tray rack for my
eClemenetine, but I would need to walk it back and forth from parking to
apartment and I have that arthritis bugger. It's not something I would
Have you looked at Saris? Made in the USA (Wisconsin, I think) and dead useful.
I have the Freedom 4 bike rack, but it also comes in a 2. It has trays, so
great for fenders. Easy on/off, and fully adjustable. My husband’s awkward
ebike fits fine!

This is the root of why I can’t have a long chainstay Rivendell bike. Without
getting a much larger vehicle with much worse fuel economy, I cannot ever
transport a bike that long (especially with fenders). I have an 89cm pbh, so
I’m definitely in the large size range. A 59 Clem is not feasible o
Hosing down an Element is an urban myth. When I bought mine, they made me sign
a form acknowledging that I knew that it would damage the car. Turns out
they’re not waterproof from the inside.
They *are* easy to clean, however. Lots of plastic and rubber, not a speck of
carpeting.

A friend of mine has an Element, as does Mark @ Riv. It's a perfect little
storage container on wheels, and I recall that at least some models have an
interior you can hose down. Nifty!
