We have a Tow Trust detachable towbar, only ever used for a Thule bike rack and a BakRak spare wheel carrier on the longer treks. Highly recommended.

I think you're missing my point somewhat. You don't need to be tooled up to steal a bike/bikes off these racks in less than 30 seconds, because they're not actually secured to anything. By engaging the rack locks you might as well be locking the bike to itself. As you said yourself above, undo...

We travelled with our bikes packed in the van last month, it worked but it was not a great solution. We were at the NEC yesterday for the caravan and motorhome show and had the opportunity to test our estarli folding e bikes on a Thule Wanderway bike rack - unfortunately the test van didn't have...

Hi. I would like to put a towbar on my T6 and will only be fitting a bike rack so it’s extremely unlikely I will actually tow anything. Should I go for universal wiring loom or dedicated loom with trailer prep. If I fit trailer prep with coding will it effect the van unnecessary when bike rack...

Hi, I have a tailgate mounted Thule Wandaway bike rack for 2 cycles. I think it is brilliant and would definitely recommend it. However, the 2 cycles we have are e-bikes which are quite heavy. Lifting on is not such a problem but putting them back after a strenuous ride is not so easy! Folding...

Hi, I have this bike rack and am looking to get it powder coated. Does anyone have experience of taking apart/getting all the plastic off? ..and then back on again. will i need any special tools for the job?

Is this just on the tailgate mounted Thule 4 bike rack? And then in theory, you could get another 3 small bikes below on a row at hitch rack? Or is that just asking for too much

Hi, i’m intending on fitting a reversing camera and will have a towbar bike rack in the future. I was thinking of getting a tailgate reverse light with camera inbuilt. Anyone done this and can you see over the bikes? If so any recommendations on manufacturers, can only find an MZOrange one...

Where you able to install it in the bike rack?

To be fair, space is not an issue as this isn't going to be a conventional camper conversion. Purely for carting bikes around and a place to get changed, have a brew post ride with a full width bench seat against the bulkhead in the rear doubling up as a bike rack for transport, a bit like THIS. ;)

I get there’s a few variables but as a standard set up without lowering the van etc you’d of thought that as a minimum all bike racks would clear the tailgate . The height of a bike shouldnt be be a concern if it tilts so the bike height expands horizontal to the van . And buying a 2 bike...

I am looking at having my bike rack powder coated. Just seeing if you got yours done and did it all go back together ok.

If they've brought a van then they're likely tooled up and basic rack locks would be broken in about 5 seconds. The rack locks (even there best ones) aren't meant to protect your bike from people with bolt cutters or vans - IE people who've come with tools for the job. They're meant to defeat...

Has anyone had a full size roof rack fitted and care to give some opinions? There's a couple of options that I can find, without spending a small fortune: Flat Dog UK rack - £870 Inc fitting https://www.flatdoguk.com/volkswagen%2Dt5%2D%2F%2Dt6%2Dfd%2Drax%2D%2D%2Dswb%7E3416 Front Runner slim...

Do you have/know how to use a multimeter?

I was thinking that for my VW t6 camper. Could this work on the fiamma bike rackhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/Carrier-Waterproof-Reinforced-Suitable-152x61x61cm/dp/B09B9WCFH3, thinking of getting a bike rack

Yes, I have 1250N on which lifts my tailgate + bike rack, and I have to hang on it to pull it down. I got the stronger struts with the intention of fitting the mud tracks to the bike carrier, but not actually done that yet.

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...

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...
