Best Bike Carrying Options?

[sjw]

I can highly recommend the Whispbars rack and Thule 951 bike carriers.  A total doddle having used a towbar set up for years.

You buy the bars and select the appropriate fitting kit.  Follow the instructions and away you go.

The bike carriers are a dime a dozen on FleaBay and you can pick as good as new if you're really fussy.

P.S.  If you're vertically limited like myself, pop into IKEA and get a small folding step to make the reach   

Not a good choice if you have a sunroof though

I’ve carried up to 3 bikes on the roof of my Gti, sunroof isn’t an issue, except you can see them wobble, which is a little disconcerting at times

Hmm, on the website posted, all the whispbar bars are marked as "glass roof won't open"

Wow, seriously helpful. Thanks

It was, thank you. I've just just acted on it and pulled the trigger on a Caravelle.

Then either don't get them or don't use your sunroof???   

For us peasants who don't have a sunroof it's a fortunate problem not to have...
