Hello there, I was wondering whether anyone had a recommendation for a really good towbar mounted bike rack. I’ve got an Atera Strada DL 3, which has loads of good features but the ratchet system that fixes it to the towball is a bit iffy and tends to let the rack rotate when you’re driving (really not a good thing). Also, the arms that reach through to attach your bike frames to the rack are really not adjustable and it is a real pain to try and arrange the arms when fitting two or three bikes to the rack.
What I’m looking for is:
– Towbar mounted rack to take 3 or more bikes.
– 13 pin powered lighting board integral to the rack.
– System to allow you to slide the rack a bit so that you can get into the boot of your car with the rack (and bikes) attached.
– Secure and adjustable system to look the bikes to the rack (something that goes up and over the frames would be best in my opinion but the ratchet loop fixing on the Atera is pretty good, if it wasn’t for the arms).
Any recommendations?
