Recent(ish) purchase of Bronson 2.1 wont't fit my car rack (shock gets in the way and no way to fudge it). Anyone got a bronson and car rack combo that works? (it's a right pain to get it in my car).

Need to give us a clue! Roof, tow bar or what?. And what's a 2.1? V2 or the recent V3?.

I used to just take the shock off my 5010 when using a rack, bit of a faff, but worked.

Presumably one that grips the wheels would be fine eg. Thule UpRide

We found that changing the thule arms to these fiamma ones solved the problem. Easy to thread round any frame rather than the bulk thule clamps

Thanks for the advice! Realised I failed to mention what type of rack... It's a tailgate mounted one that I'm looking for as I don't have a tow bar or roof bars. The 2.1 is the V2 🙂

Buy the Thule one that clamps the forks (front wheel removed)

I use one and it's superb
