CRUZ 'Bici-rack'
The CRUZ
'Bici-rack' is a basic but solid bike carrier - it's made of much
stronger material than similar bike carriers in its price range. It fits roof
bars to 40mm wide, downtubes of up to 85mm deep by 65mm wide, and can easily
be adjusted to suit the geometry of your bike if this is different to normal.
It comes complete with a lock to lock the bike to the carrier, two strong
polypropylene wheel straps, and has a 2 year guarantee.
The superb lightweightSTRADA
2 and STRADA
3 carriers (only 12.5/14.5kg) have been further improved and now
have UK legal foglights, i.e. a foglight on the offside. The STRADAs are fully
self-adjusting for all tow balls and - this is the real innovation - don't
tilt but slide away from the car, much in the same way as a kitchen
drawer slides out of a unit. Not only is this a single handed operation, but
the bike carrier is taking the weight of the bikes, so it's easy, and safe
- the bikes won't suddenly pivot forward and clock you on the head. And they're
small and light enough to be placed in the boot of the car when not in use
- often the only sensible option for multi-storey on on street parking.
Thule ProRide 591
Thule’s aluminium ProRide
591 has a clever automatically-adjusting quick release system.
It comes complete with adapters for aluminium T-track section bars, fits roof
bars to 65mm wide, and takes bikes with down tubes up to 80mm diameter (up
to 80 x 100mm for oval frames).
MaxxRaxx bike racks
MaxxRaxx
tilting tow bar carriers are ingenious. We think they're streets ahead
of any other 'hang on' carrier - the way the bikes fit provides many of the
benefits of using a wheel support rack, but at more of a 'hang on' rack price.
They can be adapted to fit all tow ball types and also vehicles with spare
wheels on the rear door. There's even a ski carrying accessory. 5 bikes can
be carried on certain 4 x 4s and larger vehicles with nose weights of 100kg
or more. Click here to see MaxxRaxx videos.Enjoy your Bike magazine - "Best

Thule EuroClassic
G5 909
Thule's EuroClassic
G5 909 is their new top of the range 3 bike carrier. It's certainly very smart, and
is quickly and easily fitted to all tow ball types. It pivots from near the
front, and there's a tilt stop to prevent the bikes from hitting the ground.
Atera GIRO
AF - "Made in Germany"
The previous GIRO was a worthy winner of the Auto Express Best Buy Award
on several occasions. The Atera
GIRO AF is its 21st Century replacement, featuring clever wheel
holders to keep the bike in place and automatic shoulder-level single handed
tensioning and locking, leaving one hand to hold the bike upright.Superb!
