If you only need to cart around one bike, you may feel that it's perfectly fine to disassemble it and throw it in the trunk or wedge it into the back seat of your car. However, a roof mounted bike rack, even for just one bike, is a great choice for cycle transport.

First of all, you don't bend your spokes, crimp your brake lines or bend your sprockets. Everything can be kept in good working order, and you also protect your vehicle this way. Also, roof mounted bike racks make loading your bike onto your car so easy that you can do it in seconds, quite unlike putting a cycle in a trunk and then tying the trunk down.
