As the title says, I have 2 road bikes, approximately 18 pounds each. I don't think there is a hitch that's made for the M2C, and I'm not sure I trust the suction cup bike holders, but maybe I'm wrong. What's everyone doing?

I am using the BMW roof rack. Easy installation and removal. There are four panels on the roof that flip up. The rack then bolts down to the roof at those locations. I also have two BMW road bike attachments.

The rack has been used hundred’s of times. My M2 actually has “Bike” license plates on it.

By the way, the BMW rack is made by Thule.

These are the Thule brand bars that fit: https://www.thule.com/en-us/roof-rack/car-roof-racks

I use my Thule crossbars and attachment feet. I carry my bikes, skis and a kayak on the Thule rack. Actually, my one Thule bike tray is nearly 30 years old at this point. Thule is expensive up front, but you will use it forever.

Using the BMW roof rack as well even though I think I have used it a total of 2 times. However it is really is to get on and off which is a plus. Its made by thule as DanG mentioned so its good stuff. Also not that expensive for the whole thing.

Helps to have a utility car for other use cases

Thanks for the suggestions. I was just on bmwusa.com, and can't seem to find the carrier bars, but did find the bike holder so maybe I'm doing something wrong. Will talk to a dealer tomorrow. Thanks.

seems cheaper to just buy a bike rack, no?

The M2 takes the regular F2 series or F4 series rack.

Use seasucker racks. Have two. Ones a single bike Komodo I got for my old s2000 and the other is a two bike talon. Works great and can store in trunk easily.

You can find threads for adding a hitch if you prefer, with many using that option to hold bikes (or pull track trailers). I think they are bolt-on with minor trimming of the rear valence panel.

Bmw 2 series roof rack + thule fastride

I use it for weekends mostly and i take the roof rack off the car when i dont transport bikes. Its really easy takes less than 5mins when you get used to it.
