Hi guys!
Does anybody know of any dedicated trailers in which bikes can be towed? Like the ones that look like a long rack on wheels that you sometime see being towed full of bikes around trail centres. What are they called? Whhere do I find stuff about them online?
Thanks.
For 2-3 bikes you could get a regular trailer with a cover and then fit roof bars and cycle carriers – you sometimes see them set up like that outside Halfords.
Can you guys show me what kind of regular trailer you mean, please? If one that could be covered or somehow locked, then so much the better. Had a tow bar one… hugely impractical, plus too much at hand for everyone to remove components, vandalise, whatever.
Oh, yes, I get you. I already use Thule roof bars and carriers…. may be the way to go. Then I’d have to find a way to close the entire thing in and lock it. Thanks again.
How is a towbar mounted rack MORE impractical than a trailer?
You have to go 50mph everyhere, hook it on, have somewhere to store it, will make finding parking space more difficult (making shops, pubs, (accomadation) while on a biking (day)trip all the more difficult to park for), pay more on tolls (should there be any), is an AA van allowed to tow the car AND trailer? When you take the wrong turning on that back lane can you reverse half a mile to find a suitable turning round point? And as this thread is showing can be/are expensive and/or require building up from a trailer and seperate bike rack
Theres a fair few towbar mounted bike racks that tilt out of the way of the bootlid if thats one of your needs/concerns/issues:
