Recommendations for a bike rack

[Rusty Lee]

Hi I'm looking at buying a bike rack to go on the back of the bus. What are people using? Where you get it from? Any pics? I want something that's decent and sturdy as the bikes aren't cheap.

Cheers lee........

There is a guy I know who knocked one up for my Westy trailer, works a treat.

I use the fiamma bike rack for my two road bike's Lee and it works a treat! Not cheap new but they're aluminium so light and if you buy it new has all the rubber bits so as not to scratch the paintwork! I wouldn't trust a cheapy one with my bikes, they cost me a fortune! :lol:

As per the link i use a saris bones carrier on mine, sturdy, simple to use and has a good securing system for the bikes. My bikes are pretty pricey as well so dont want to take any chances
