I'm curious how that changes the ride in your car (if at all).
rack attack wanted $800+ tax for a roof setup.
the hitch and rack ran me $350.

The car can't be lowered because it wont have enough ground clearance, the hitch will will bottom out on the road over bumps.

Cool to the the Lexus hitting the mountains. I wouldnt worry about the compromise. It seems like you made the best descision based on your hobbies. You could have your cake and eat it to for 900 dollars. Its an expensive cake

Nice bikes man! I used to ride a lot of freeride and DH, but unfortunately I ruptured 4 discs in my back.
