Ok, so new car coming on Thursday and the Estate is going back...
Not a drama I thought, until I realised how am I gonna carry my bikes? Well, my 9:zero:7, the others will fit..

So...

How do your transport yours?

As the Thule 591 I was thinking of looks like it ony takes tyres up to 2.5" 😳 😐

I didn't think you transported them, I thought you rode them everywhere

My Thule tow-bar rack has space for two normal bikes. When I'm carrying the fat bike on there, I simply put it in the gap between the two normal positions (it rests on the frame of the bike rack) and bungie the tyres down. One of the clamps still reaches the frame nicely, job done.

Mine just gets strapped to my rack, like this:

tho it would be easy to convert my bike rack to fit it I guess (like this).
