buy cheap, buy twice. did have a halfords one but a hassle to get three bikes onto and it never seemed strong enough. Got the tow bar, three bike one from pendles. Much better quality!

Aiston gets my vote too.

I've had Thule and Pendle racks in the past, but the Aiston beats them both of performance and price.

Without doubt aiston. I've had a pendle before and the aiston version is better in every way and cheaper. 3 of my mates now have them after seeing mine.

Aiston is one bloke, call him if you want to know anything, he's really helpful. I don't have any pics of mine but you won't be disappointed I guarantee it.

Stumpy_M4 - If you want more info on the Aiston I would advise going all oldschool and giving him a ring (number is on the website). I tried email first off but eventually gave up and rang and had all my questions answered super quick. My Aiston is a very nice chap who I think prefers to spend his time welding new racks rather than trying to figure out computers.

I've got the Thule one from Halfords, it's fine, does the job It did however come with a shite plastic plug that had to be replaced.
