Car rack/ HR Monitor

[tricycling]

I dont know where to post this.

I am looking for a car rack that holds either one or two (Preferably 2) that is CHEAP.

The cheapest I have seen is about $60- Do any of you know a site or anywhere else where I can get a decent car rack for cheap?

Also, anyone know of a site that sells a decent heart rate monitor with the chest belt? Probably $40 max.


Thanks!

check garage sales for racks... I got a great one for $12.

HRM-- check performance bike sales and clearance.

ebay???

A pal of mine bought a rack that fits his ford escort for $50 or less at Target. He's had it for a couple of years & it hasn't fallen apart. (He leaves it on there like ALL summer too.)

I gotta plug Target too......I needed a headlight for my nightime commute and was all set to order one from Performance and found a halogen headlight at Target for $14.99. :eek: <----look on my face - Target?? Anyway I was amazed at the bikie "stuff" Target carried and may have to cruise their aisles some more!

I can't even begin to say this was a cheap rack, but it was the best purchase I ever made. I have a Saris Bones 3 trunk rack and I love it! Not only is it good looking, and comes in a ton of neato colors, but it fits anything. Even hatchbacks and the like. It's built in an arch so that all three bikes are on different levels and it had cradles and sway straps. Plus, all the straps that attach it are sewn together so it's easy to put on. Heck, it even folds down flat, and has neato stickers to mark your "settings" for easy adjustment the next time. Oh, and it has a lifetime warranty. I paid $135 for mine, the place I got it from discounts all their racks a percentage off MSRP. The bones rack is here: http://www.saris.com/products/bones.htm

And if I end up buying the truck of my dreams ('96 F350 super duty deisel king cab) that rack will be for sale and I'll be needing this: http://www.saris.com/products/koolrack.htm
