Roof rack / hatch bike rack

Can anyone recommend a good roof rack (for extra storage) or a bike rack that will attach to the back of the fit?

This is for the Fit, not the Jazz. I just noticed this says it's a shared forum for both.

Not sure yet, kind of on the fence between the base or the sport. Leaning towards the sport.

You won't be able to use a rear mounted "hang on the back window" type bike carrier with the sport model. You will need to add a hitch and buy a hitch mounted carrier or use the roof.

Hitch is easy to install.

I bought a single carrier bike rack for my 2008 Fit sport from walmart and it hangs from the back without a hitch just fine.
