Hi all. Does anyone know if there’s a decent bike carrier for the model S which can carry 4 bikes?
Thanks for any advice.
Ecohitch and any good hitch mounted bike rack. I personally prefer 1UpUSA racks for my mountain bikes.

I'd be super hesitant to put 4 bikes on any sort of roof solution for the Model S.
Was going to ask if anyone has fit 4 bikes on the roof rack and came across this thread. @ucmndd , may I ask why you would be hesitant? Is it just a weight thing?
Has anyone gotten 4 bikes onto their roof? Do I hear 3 bikes?
Yikes! Scary!This guy got 4 bikes on the roof, at least for a while:
Car flex and losing a roof rack with bikes?

I use ecohitch and 1UP as well. Be aware though that because the model S is so low on the ground, the hitch will sometimes scrape against the ground if leaving a steep ramp. The ease of taking out the 1UP hitch when you're not using it is very useful for this application because you do not want to leave the carrier of hitch insert there when it's not needed.
It's still a really good hitch combo for bicycles. 1UP does have extensions for up to 4 bikes as well. Let's face it, if you buy the 1UP, chances that your bikes are going to be a lot lighter than walmart bikes, so 4 light bikes will be well under the limits that 1UP can take.
Is this yours? You really like to push things beyond the intended use...
1UPUSA does not make a 5 bike carrier. Adding a 1 bike extension to a 4 bike carrier is beyond the intended use. "Increase bike capacity to 4 bikes max with additional Add-Ons" - 1UPUSA Webpage
