Does anyone use one of these Fiamma racks for 4 mountain bikes?Welshcav wrote:I have a Mercedes Vito carry bike rack fitted to the back for 3 bikes. It is a bit tight for 3 I couldnt fit 3 without damaging my pride and joy. I have a tow bar mounted thule rack for the car as well which is superb. They are expensive but worth the money in my oppinion. Not sure I would want the weight of 4 bikes on the tailgate of the Bongo even with my lightweight racing machines.

Watch the weight of the rack, on the tailgate, or on the bumper. We saw one recently on another bongo which had made two rather alarming dents in the bumper where it rested. Also bear in mind the weight of 4 bikes mounted high up on the back of the van

Hi Bert
If you read back you'll see I mentioned the tradekar saffier one a couple of times, I sent it back as wasn't happy with it
but its horses for courses.

I have the Pendle, very solid and well constructed, but a bit less convenient than the tailgate mounted ones as it has to be fitted for use.Bert wrote:Has anyone any experience of any of these?
