Are these "the best" and is there a specific type for a T25?
I just want a 2 bike one and if anyone's got one they want to sell let me know
Thanks

There's nothing on ebay right now - they are pricey!
There's some towball type things which look quite clever - and aren't expensive at all - but they don't look very solid.
Will keep hunting!

Try searching for mis-spellings. I got my "fiaama bicycle rack" for £35.

They are pricey, but they are also the best. As with other stuff, you get what you pay for. Fiama kit is well supported and its easy to get spares/replacements from specialists and new spares on ebay too. The bottom line is, do you buy cheap and wonder if it'll last a couple of years or spend the extra and not ever have to worry about it?

Yep all good points and the reason why I want(ed) a Fiamma.
Going on that price tho, I may have to make do with something less good and put the £100 or so saved towards the more pressing matter of the rust
I will keep an eye on pre-loved and ebay and classifieds on here to see if I can pick one up second hand, I've got about a month before I desperately need something!

LOL. And my £150 mint "merecedes" alloys with new correct sized tyres
And the set of local "Mecedes" ML alloys I bought and re-sold for 4x the price
Got to love ebay for it's mis-spellings
