Re-advertised as it was in a multi ad and the other items have gone to happy new homes with forum members.
Genuine factory part with towbar attachment, carries 2 full-size bicycles. £150 or near offer; asking price gets light bar included.
Rarely used, all in VGC - arrival of Discovery Sport without towbar makes this surplus to requirements.
Location Harrogate but could meet to handover between here and Coventry (A1/M18/M1/M69) most weeks.

when towing i assume the weight of the bar, plus bike(s) have to be taken in to account with the nose weight of the caravan to make sure i don't go over the max loading of the towbar

Just pondering on options, to take weight out of the caravan when towing, or put bikes on car roof rack Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Yes, rack and bikes are part of the towbar load. I never towed with mine - the bar was only there to carry the bike rack Gone... 2013 XS TD4 Manual Firenze Red

I have the same Cycle rack, and when the bikes are on board, towing isnt very practical, as your turning circle can be limited by the cycles  

ah, might go for roof racks instead, thanks both for your replies Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

Hi all

I don't suppose it has some sort of clamp to fit a removable swan neck tow bar does it? FL2 HSE Lux 2011 SD4 Gallway Green.

Sorry Cclr, it is suitable for a fixed towbar as the base plate for the sandwiches between the towbar and the towball (with extended bolts that come as part of this kit). Gone... 2013 XS TD4 Manual Firenze Red

Can you tell me how the carrier is added and removed once the mounting is fixed to the tow bar. Does it just slot in or are tools required. Thanks.

Sorry for slow reply. Rack has precision pins at the bottom that slot into the sockets in the adapter plate (part of the kit) which is permanently bolted between tow bar and tow ball (extended bolts supplied). Then you tighten the stabilising clamp plate with box spanner provided.
Removal is the reverse. 2-minute job! Gone... 2013 XS TD4 Manual Firenze Red
