Ai Design 997TT Cab Bike Rack

Hey guys, since summer is officially upon us we thought we would show you guys a pretty unique project that we recently completed. We are very satisfied with the results as was the customer and hopefully you guys like it as well. This particular job started off with our customer's desire to fit a bike rack to his 997 Turbo, with the only problem being that it was a cabriolet model. While a universal strap-down bike carrier was certainly one option, instead, after careful consideration and much discussion we opted to design and fabricate a more secure and aesthetically pleasing option, which included custom fabricating a receiver to work with an existing tow-hitch mounted bike carrier.

Never thought I'd see a 911 with a bike rack. Well done.

I like that turbo, looks insane with the wheel combination.

Hey guys,

Thanks for all of the kind words. Im glad you guys appreciate some of the other work on the car as well. Obviously this isn't something for everyone, as there was a fair amount of design work and custom fabrication involved, however in this case the client was really adamant about designing a solution to fit his needs. Below you can see the hitch cover we designed for when the rack is not in use.





More info on the full build can be found on our blog.

If you have the means for a Turbo you have the means for another car to haul your bike.
