Bike carriers

Featured Replies

Does anyone  know if its possible to carry 4 bikes on a roomster.   I dont have roof rails or a tow bar so i believe my only options are either a rear mounted carrier or getting a towbar fitted.  From what i remember, the nose weight on the roomster isn't very much and 4 bikes may be too much for it.  I can't carry them inside as i will have suitcases to.

 

Thanks for any advice

I can’t help, but I am replying out of interest as I am looking to do the same

Isn't the Roomster 75kg on the roof? Should probably hold 4 if you check the weight and get wide-ass rail-bars.

I'd personally probably do the Thule tow-bar thing instead due height etc.

Towbar and a rack like the Buzzrack Buzzwing. No wind noise, less effect on the fuel consumption, no lifting muddy bikes onto the roof with the associated risk of dropping/damage. The Buzzwing also folds out so you can still access the boot. 

 

I'm using the rack on a Superb and a Karoq with no issues.

 

One of the best bits of kit I own. Roofracks are soooooo last year :)
