Subject: Trunk Mount Question
I just got a Trek SC (size M) and realized that my current trunk mount carrier bars are too wide to mount the bike by the top tube.  Anybody else have this problem?  What trunk mount carrier do you use?  Are there any manufacturers that have a way to adjust the mounting bars?  I would love a roof mounted system, but my wife would kill me if I bought one since I just got the bike.  Thanks for the help.

I have to remove the front wheel and put my bike on the rack with the rear end of the bike as normal (on the top tube), but the front of the bike is nestled between the down tube and the front fork.

Had the same problem when I bought my Shiv and used the same solution.
