    OEM Bike Rack Question

    We have recently bought a new to us T6.1 and had the dealership fitted an OEM bike rack. We have noticed that the two longer attaching arms are a lot looser than the shorter two. When the tailgate opens they fall and touch the rear window. If I forget and not put them back they stop the rear...

    Not the usual bike carrier question - Security?

    But... A passing by opportunistic thief won't know there's flaw in the design of the Atera Strada DL3 and start taking the rack apart. They'll try the clamp, and quickly move on because it's "locked". And yes, it is locked - very lightly - but it is locked. If you think a rack that's bolted...

    Tow bar bike rack for the wider handle bar MB

    What’s the deal with bike racks that clear the tailgate? It’s like I’m asking for a flying motorcycle —finding a straight answer is impossible! Honestly, it’s baffling that this is even a question. You’d think all tilting bike racks would naturally avoid smacking into the tailgate, but nope...

    Tow bar bike rack for the wider handle bar MB

    I found the inner bike always touched the back of the van, even when it was a kids MTB. I had an old glove specifically to go on the end of the bar (cheap tilting four-bike rack from Halfords). On the new van, we have a tailgate mounted rack, so the bars go over the roof.

    Rear Spoiler - Close Call!

    Just to throw another possible spanner in the works - make sure that you can still open the tailgate with a bike rack attached if you have a poptop. Some poptops aren't compatible with bike racks even when closed and can be damaged, or prevent opening of the tailgate fully

    Thule Wanderway Bike Rack - Issues and Paint Protection

    I rarely lift it with a bike on but it’s ok with a road bike and the pop top down. It would definitely make contact between the handlebars and pop top if the roof was raised. Reimo roof for me, others may sit a little lower. MTB handlebars, especially more modern wide ones would likely hit...
