Halfords cycle carriers

[Eloise]

Hi,

Been in halfords today and noticed they have a sale on the cycle carriers. Halfords own make, three bike capacity, secured with straps at £59. Other makes of same design for three bikes are priced up to £79.

Has anyone used one or own one? Do they fit ok on the camper tailgate? Any info on these before I waste my dollars would be appreciated.

Thanks Neil.

I have a couple of these, good for a car, but not really suitable for a van. Saying that though they would probably fit at a push. At that price you can easily find a Fiamma on eBay, search for fiamma bike rack, people are not specific enough when listing them, last one I purchased was £3.50!

I use one...simple and cheap (and convenient as I have also used it on about 5 other cars in its life), only downside is you have to remove it all to open tailgate...a Fiamma can stay on with bikes. Suppose it depends how often you need to use it

Cheers, I think the removing it bit to open the tailgate could give problems.

Will have to have a closer look at them.
