Oh my friend, It feels strange offering you a suggestion since you are well ahead of me in Spanish. We both know that bicycle is "bicicleta." Depending on whether you are referring to something to carry the bicyclte on or something to carry things on the bicycle, the best term might be "portadora". But as you say, the natives will know.

Ah mi amigo, se siente extraño ofreciéndole una sugerencia ya que está muy por delante de mí en español. Ambos sabemos que la bicicleta es 'bicicleta'. Dependiendo de si usted se refiere a algo que llevar el bicyclte sobre o algo para llevar las cosas en la bicicleta, el mejor término sería Carrier. Pero como dices, los nativos sabrán.

Bici transportista// bastidor de coche.

I didn't know this in my head, I looked on e-bay. I hope it's the right thing.

Thanks Kirk. Please don't feel strange. First, in classes of several languages, I've been able to help people well ahead of me, and at least as often have needed and gladly accepted help from those nominally behind me.

We all learn things in slightly different orders and can thus give and receive help to/from others in both directions.

Secondly, if you are in fact behind me at all, of which I remain unconvinced, you're surely breathing down my neck and are well able to offer me help. Thanks.

Back on topic, friends I know say bici for bicicleta, but maybe it's more slangy than I realized and is bad to use.

Anyone?

And to clarify, I was inquiring about a rack or mount attached to a car or truck for the purpose of carrying a bicycle over greater distances than I might be iinclined, or indeed able, to pedal one.

I was short on description because I was typing on this tiny phone screen while bored in spanish class (some of the exercises are really slow)

Otra vez. Gracias
