Does anyone own one of these?



If so are they worth the money and are they fairly robust :whistle:

Can not comment on that one but most land rovers parked at bike parks have the atera strada on the back. Is the land rover one about £600 whereas the strada is about £350 and can take 4 bikes.

One thing to check is that it will slot in the boot. The atera does without having to fart about.

If it is more expensive than the atera then it is a total rip off.

Further info.
Land Rover one weighs 15.8kg
Can carry 51kg
Pivot action seems a bit poo.

Atera strada
Weighs 14.5 kg
Can carry 63kg
Sexy pivot action.

So I am guessing it won't be mega sturdy.

Get the atera, you don't need the LR badge on a bike carrier. Very happy with mine.
