Bike Racks?

I was wondering if anybody had a bikerack that hangs off of the back on the vic, that fits well and is under $100. I would not want anything too big, maybe 2 bikes. I was also wondering if it could fit over a spoiler. I searched and only found stuff about roof racks and no I do not want a roof rack for my bike, I like my roof the way it looks now.

go for the Saris "Bones" rack. It's extremely adaptable and is like $125 online. It'll fit over a factory wing. I work at a bike shop and it works whenever someone has a problem with fitment.

My $30, 3-bike rack from Walmart works fine. Simple to setup and the straps are strong enough. Then again, my bikes weigh like 10lbs each (my buddy and I ride Trek 1000).

Ur full of $hit. No aluminum bike weighs 10lbs, unless it's a kid's tricycle. Even my Scattante carbon fiber bike weighs 18lbs.

because i'm fed up with bs crap that people post up on the forums. Why can't people just tell the truth. And if they don't know about something then they should own up to their ignorance. There is nothing wrong with being ignorant, until you try to be an authority on something when you don't know $hit about it.
