Not to knock on Bart, but I would never "secure" something with bungies. For street use, probably fine, but if you got in an accident or something, that bungie is gonna do its job and stretch, and it certainly isn't gonna stop 60lbs + of wheel and tire. Ratchet straps all the way! 5 bucks at harbor freight, and a lock is a good idea, I lock mine on the roof, and on the rear door.
