Cycle rack

[creationblue]

I need to take the kids bikes with us next week, is it a case of Fiamma or Pendle or is there another option? Don't want to spend a lot and could do with it folding away after....oh and I can't fit one to the tow bar as I'm towing a trailer

My other option is strapping them to the Westy Trailer exept I don't have a rack on it.....Rang karmann konnection but they don't have the parts in for the Westy racks....

Any ideas guys?

If your towing a trailer, can't you put the childrens bikes on your westy roof rack?

I bought the Pendle one which is supposed to carry three bikes but i've only carried two so far , it's a lot cheaper that the Fiamma one but still very well made and easy to rig onto the back of the bus

This where i got mine from was the cheapest on the net i could find

I've got a Pendle one, carries 2 adult and one large childs bike no probs....
I hook the top straps to the gutter not the door as that takes the wieght off the boot door...very glad now as some t**t hit the bike wheels with back of his caravan while turning out of the services on the M5 and it has pulled the gutter very slightly out where it attaches, but reckon it'd have been alot worse if it had been attached to the boot door :evil:
Think you can buy direct from Pendle? or they did have an ebay shop

Cheers

Solution to the leaky Fiamma if you want me to make one up

The Pendle systems good. I went for one similar that l had the mounting plate welded to the tow bar.
