Bike rack for Ford Ecosport

[UrsulaDP]

I drive a Ford Ecosport without a tow bar but do have the roof cross bars.

I've read on older forums that some cyclist use the Thule spare wheel rack and others use the roof rack.

I'm curious to know which option between roof vs spare wheel racks do you prefer? And which offers the most stability?

Thanks

I had a ecosport. I would go for the roofrack option. That back door with sparewheel is already heavy. I would not ad extra weight there.

Thanks. It makes a lot of sense. Will investigate the roof option then instead.
