anyone know of a good bike rack to go on the subaru i like a bit of mad off roading

 

I've got one of these http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Produc...er/3331178.htm but it goes on my WAGON don't konw how well it will fit on a saloon , especially if you have a high rear wing . It's good because it mounts the bike high up so the bike doesn't cover your lights .

Bit the bullet and bought a Thule system for my my03 sti the other month. I've also got 2 sets of Fapa Velos to put the bikes on from here: http://www.roofbox.co.uk/index.html

Only used in once so far, although I'm thinking of organising a scooby meet for us bikers at Coed y brenin

 

I had a good look around a few years ago for a rack to go on a MY04 STi. Gave up and bought some roof bars in the end which do the job nicely.

 

great idea

Have a similar set up on mine although my bike fits inthe boot nicely so as to not drag the car back too much when just carrying one bike.

Coed y brenin is superb and would be a great weekend

 

I think I'm gonna try my bike rack on at the weekend. I'm not very hopeful at all getting it over that spoiler but we'll see.

 

Bike rack - bane of my lift Putting it on, putting three bikes on, getting them off.....
I wish I'd bought some roof bars now.

BTW mine's a Halfords one and I wouldn't recommend it because it's such hassle with all the straps. The instructions are naff as well, it's something I've learnt with experience. First time I thought it was secure, drove off and the bloomin' thing and bikes fell straight off

cheers to all i think i will go with the roof bars as i take three of us glad to know not just me who likes the old bikes the riding sort anyway

 

Ooh scary this is my first post on here, try woggle.co.uk for a bike rack they do all sorts of outdoor stuff hiking biking etc and good prices too, hope this helps
