I have 2 bike racks for use with our T25, We have the all singing and dancing (T3 specific) Fiamma fitted to the tailgate in the usual way.

Then for those unexpected times when we need to use the trailer a simple universal one can by attached to the trailor to do exactly the same job.

This universal bike rack can also be fitted to our van and simply sits on the rear bumper and is held to the vehicle by a means of 6 adjustable hooks.

Simple enough to fit and remove, does exactly the same job and is less then half the price......

Regards

PS, BTW the Fiamma is likely to get damaged when used with our trailer...

I use a thule tow bar mounted one for 2 bikes..
good quality and secure. expect to pay bout 80quid
mind. in hindsight i would have gone for the 3 bike
version though. (p.s. my bike cost more than my van)
(so the rack has to be the nuts!)
