S5 Cabriolet - Roof racks
Considering an S5 cab when it becomes available. Do cabs have the ability to hold roof racks?
Can they carry two road bikes on top?
Is there a max weight that the roof can hold?
Thanks.

Also, a customized trailer hitch with a rack system like this should work.
Sometimes the trunk mounted system can damage the car. If you get a hitch system like this custom installed to the chassis with just the hitch visible, it should work well. Then you can also do skis, extra cargo, whatever...<ul><li><a href="http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.discountramps.com/cargoImages/trailer-hitch-bike-rack-2.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.discountramps.com/trailer-hitch-bike-rack.htm&usg=__hx4FzQ1THsqOBzclJkPch_IfWDM=&am p;h=375&

if the truck is about the same as the coupe then you can also fit 2 roads bikes in there
I don't do it all the time but I do it - remove the front wheels and I got some auto trunk material that I put down on the trunk and in-between the bikes. out bike are a 58 and a 48. still room for soft luggage in the car behind the front seats. pretty amazing car really.
