bike rack - tailgate

I am making a trip in my T6 tailgate van in the spring and would like to take two bikes. It is unlikely that I shall have a need to take bikes for the rest of the year so am reluctant to purchase a new rack. I could try to purchase a second hand one but as they always seem to be collection only...

I'm after a genuine 4 bike tailgate rack compatible with a Skyline Aurora roof - think this means the version 1. Does anyone happen to have one they're looking to part with?

Hi, sorry if this has been answered, have tried to find out; When the VW bike rack is folded back without bikes, does it sit at or below the van roof line? Some pictures I've seem looks like it sits proud. I want to leave it on all the time and still use the 2.0m car parks when no bikes are...

Any still available ?

Lol. I’m sure I’m not alone.

After a genuine VW T6 (version 1) bike rack. Happy to travel. we are in Dorset.

Hi Guys, I’ve tried searching but can’t find how to remove the arms on a genuine VW cycle carrier? The knobs unscrew but don’t open the jaws wide enough on the clamps and it stops turning before opening. I’d like to remove the arms, dismantle and lube to see if I can fix. Failing that I’ll have...

Hi all I’m looking at getting a bike rack for the t6. Obviously they are very expensive! Currently it’s just for 2 bikes but will slowly grow to 3 and then possibly 4 over time. It won’t be used that often so I‘ve been looking at cheaper options. I’ve come across The menabo shadow online but...

Selling my VW T6, T6.1, Tailgate 4 bike, Bike rack - Version 2. This has only been used once and is only for sale because you cannot fully open the tailgate when the Skyline Aurora pop-top is up. The Bike rack sits proud of the roof/tailgate. The rack was purchased from Vanstyle 28/06/21, and...

Hi all, Does anyone else have a Skyline Aurora and VW tailgate bike rack combo? If so, does your bike rack hit the Skyline roof when it's popped up, preventing the tailgate to fully open? We've had a bit of a mare with ours plus two broken rear lights.

I've got a T6 with Barn doors on the back. I've also got a growing family and we want to be able to take all of our bikes away with us. so 4 bikes. Am i being daft considering a Tailgate conversion so that the body mounted bike racks are an option? we;ve got a 3 bike rack on the tow ball and as...

Hi, I have an OEM Bike rack where both the wheel clamps failed. Has anyone else had this issue and is it possible to purchase replacements, does anyone know? Thank you

OEM rack recently professionally powder coated matt black. Been used once since (my MTB has really fat tyres which don’t fit the tracks properly!) comes with everything it left the factory with, instructions, wrench tool & spare keys. Stands me around £700 so would like most of my money back...

I couldn’t find another post on this yet. I’ve seen a few T6s recently with the version 2 of the bike rack but in black. They look rad and would go nicely camo with my black T6. AFAIK, V2 is the one with the wider frame. Here it is in silver...

Hi Everyone. I have just bought a 2021 T6.1 Campervan and want to fit a black Genuine VW4 cycle carrier to the tailgate. I have been told they only make the genuine VW rack in silver. I really would like a genuine VW rack and wondered if the black T6 rack will fit a T6.1? Has anyone fitted a T6...

Made up some simple brackets to secure my recovery boards to the bike rack: I’ll still use a tie down to secure them but at least having the locking fittings it should slow the thieves down a little. https://www.toolstation.com/stainless-steel-threaded-bar/p45452 Thule THUL5 526010...

Anyone had a go at converting their own bike rack to carry a spare wheel and peli box? If so what did you use? I like the look of the HESS system just think it’s a bit expensive for some airline rails!

Hi all, I have a t6 with tailgate and looking for a cycle rack for a couple of bike while towing. I have a roof spoiler and don’t want to roof mount, the tow ball is detachable. Is there anything on the market available? thanks

Bored during lockdown? Bike parks closed? Why not take your old rear bike rack apart and have it powder coated? I did mine, took the painters 4 days to turn round and cost me £65. A weekend either side for disassembly and assembly, nice upgrade.

Genuine VW four bike bike rack in good condition. Has the extra arm for the fourth bike and four keys with it. Located Penrith Cumbria. £495 or near offer.
