Jaco Steyn Posted June 24, 2018 Share I do not know about the build quality of this rack, but I think it's a very cost effective option. I saw this "Dixon" branded 3 bike towbar-mount cycle rack at the Cash Crusaders at President Square in Vanderbijlpark for R1876 and it's new, not second hand. I have attached a photo of the cycle rack still in its box. If I did not already have a 3 bike rack, I would have seriously considered this one to start off with.

SuperDooperSnooper Posted June 24, 2018 Share Seems like a budget option, but from hard earned experience with Dixon products you generally get what you paid for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeoKnight Posted June 24, 2018 Share Actually do wonder if that is a new one as the box appeared to have been resealed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yo-Yo Posted June 25, 2018 Share Seems the OP already has a 3 bike rack and is letting people know if they are looking for a cheap 3 bike rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geronimo Posted June 25, 2018 Share I bought a 3 bike rack from Makro about 4 or 5 years ago. Still going without any issues and have used it on some shitty roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skylark Posted June 25, 2018 Share Dixon is just rebranded goods, they don't make anything themselves, it's hit and miss, some Dixon stuff is very decent some rubbish. If it looks well made and it works then its a steal. Â Purely basing it's value/usability off of the cheap price is not sound logic from my experience, famous branding can add up to 75% of useless value, we've all seen it, some part has a brand silkscreened on to it and suddenly its double or triple the price of the identical non branded good.
