Hey all, new here :waving:
I've been looking for a van that will allow me to seat 4 plus have 2 full size motocross bikes in the back.
A tall order it seems...! But I think the T6 LWB may allow me to do this?
If anyone has any pics or can confirm the above would work that would be fantastic...
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
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 bikeracks 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...
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...
Hi, First post so go easy. I have lots of questions and not sure whether to post all separately or just as one? Just read some of the Hints and Tips thread and the don’t buy anything till you need it seems so true. Like a kid in a sweetie shop, want everything and want it now!

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
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...
Hi looking at a Thule VW bike rack tail gate thats currently on a T6.1 Can anyone tell me will this fit a T6 OK. Any changes to tail gate?
Thanks.
Chris.
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.
Hi
We have the version 1 tailgate bike rack fitted, will a reverse camara work ok with this? , camera will be fitted in same place as factory fit

For sale is my genuine bike rack which was on the van when I bought it and it’s been hung up in my garage since
I have two keys and a security bit to fit the bolts
The proper tool for the bolts is around 15 pounds to buy
I’ve given it a clean and some bits are faded with the sun but it usually...
What’s the deal with bikeracks 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 bikeracks would naturally avoid smacking into the tailgate, but nope...
