Which Bike Rack

Hi folks,
getting back into mountain biking, so looking for a rack for the D3, i have a detachable tow bar, so fancy one that fits on there...
Any recommendations? Or anyone have one for sale Wink

There are two types - the cheaper ones are fixed in place but if you pay a bit more you can get one that slides or tilts out of the way so you can open the lower tailgate without removing the rack. Depending how you're going to use it that might be a waste of money, or if you have dogs to get in and out or want to take bikes on a family holiday it's priceless!

Next decision is how many bikes do you want to carry?

I'm very happy with the Atera Strada but many are happy with Thule racks too.

I have been looking myself and I am considering a Witter ZX300 (3 bike, ZX200 2 bike) £150ish

Hi after extensive research I decided to go for the Thule EuroWay G2 923 - NEW Model 2012 from uk.varerum.dk great price cheaper than anyone else, arrived today . Check out the site and You Tube for operation videos.

I got one of these yesterday http://www.roofbox.co.uk/scripts/rbvehsel4...Z4bIQyn5uG

Normally £225, but £159 in bargain area.


It tilts and all bikes are locked on with key as well as rack itself. Very solid rack as well and same quality as Thule.
