I should probably have also mentioned that I’ve had a few types of towbar rack over the years including thule and having had an aiston now wouldn’t use anything else!
+1, they’re a seriously tough bit of kit when you compare them to something like thule. I can happily stand on the end of my aiston, the towbar swan neck bit bends quite a bit more than the rack!
It doesn’t fold up like other racks, but as Steve said the only bits that stick out are the uprights which come off easily. That’d be my only criticism of it, I leave a socket and driver in the car for dismantling it, but I’d rather that that the flimsy platic fittings on other racks, and it’s not really any slower than even the quick release racks (nipping up 4 bolts to get from flat pack to bikes secured).
