Hi

Does anyone use a normal bike rack on the back of their van, we have one that we use on our car and are wondering whether it would work on the van?

Funny you should mention this - I blinking hope so as I've just sold the one that definitely does!!

The one we use attaches to a tow bar so I can't see why not. Does yours use a tow bar?

LMS, which towball rack do you use? OH wants to get one, preferably one that tilts so you can open the back hatch door. Think he wants a Thule one.

Thanks

The one we have bought is a Thule ride on 9503. The one we sold was a hang on type but has extra retaining bars that new equivalents don't seem to have.

I don't think they tilt as not on boot.
