Bike racks
« on: 10 April 2012, 09:20 »
Hey guys, I'm after a bike rack for when I travel around the country in the summer and was wondering if anyone recommends them from anywhere. I have no idea about them, but so far have worked out that I want one of the high mounted ones. How much ideally should I spend on a reliable one?

Thanks

Thule bike racks seem to be good quality and not over expensive (unless you get a tow bar mounted one)

That's the one to get. Halfrauds do a good price on them.
