Kanyon Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Hi, I have a Holdfast 2-bike carrier with towbar fittings for R700, if interested. Louwieza 1
DR ◣◢ Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 You drive an XTrail You bikes are most likely worth more than R500 each. Get something good especially if you plan on taking the bikes on the highways or on holiday. ChUkKy and Delilah 2

Cassie Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 What, like a Thule?Load of crap. I've had 2 bikes fall off Thule hang-ons and HOW did that happen??Surely not Thule's fault?
mojopup Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 Get a Buzzrack. Bit more expensive but works like a bomb! Preferably get a stand on rack - much safer.

RockCoach Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 I've never had a bike fall off a Thule hanging rack or any other rack for that matter. I used a Thule Clipon for close to 10 years - usually carrying 3 trail bikes. The only reason I stopped was because we were rear ended. I now prefer the roof mounted racks.
Louwieza Posted October 18, 2012 Author Posted October 18, 2012 Where can I find a buzz rack ? How safe are they

RooiWillie Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 What, like a Thule?Load of crap. I've had 2 bikes fall off Thule hang-ons Interesting to see... I have had 2 thule's No issues whatsoever. That includes driving with it loaded with 2 bikes at 170kph... The manual states no faster than 120... But oh yeah, nobody reads manuals.
Stretch Posted October 18, 2012 Posted October 18, 2012 i went through this a while back - and was looking at the thule ride on vs the thule hang on vs the Raleight ride on and the cheapskate in me went for the raleigh ride on @ 2k - Bought some better straps for it and have been lank happy
