the proride roof rack is R1300 and there's a cheaper one for about R600 odd that also goes on the roof rack - most racks are around R1800 depending on the car.

 

nice theing about the roof one is that if you carry the bike often its just a matter of putting the bike on the car' date=' no more getting the rack out of the garage, fiiting it to the car, then bungee cords etc to attach the bike....

Ek bly in 'n komplek en die garage se deur is ver van my parking bay af.......die roofrack een gaan nie lekker werk nie. Behalwe as ek 'n kiddies driewiel koop maar dit gaan natuulik weer nie so vinnig wees by die funrides nie.

Faantjie, stop jou akkies, ry met jou blerrie bike na die races. Moet ook nie so met die ou toppie baklei.

Holdfast bootrack works well on a sedan, but a mate of mine has been unable to use the rack on his C-class hatchback as the pressure points seem to be looking for trouble. Also, a car with fairly 'soft' panelling will be damaged.

 

A problem is that when you have loaded the car's boot, strapped on the rack & loaded the bikes (I often carry 3) it's a &*(^ ing hassle to  'quickly' get something out of the boot...

 

The racks do tend to scuff slightly on the pressure points, but I have been able to manage it by polishing the scuffs away.

 

A strapon - once properly fastened - is very stable during travel, but we have (somehow) managed to lose a pedal travelling from Jhb to PE. The rack also has an obvious 'drag' effect, but not as bad as that of roofracks'.

 

Not 1st prize, but it works.
