Does anyone have a 4 bike tow bar mounted bike rack i could borrow / buy

[geejay]

I am looking to buy (or borrow) a decent towbar mounted 4 bike bike rack for our hols to France.

 

Ideally i am looking to buy a Thule 903 or 909 or 929 (with 4th bike option added) for sensible money ... i've been watching ebay for a while now but no sellers will set up a courier and i dont live / work near any of them to make collection a sensible option.

 

If i cant buy one then i'd be looking to borrow one for our hols fom 14 - 28 August.

 

Can anyone help??

 

at present on eBay there are ones for sale in Colchester, Hereford, Chester Le Street near Newcastle and Plymouth - i live near Reading!

 

Thanks for any help!

As an aside - 4 bikes and carrier is a lot of weight on the tow bar so be sure to check your max nose weight.

 

On a Landrover it will be 150kgs but on some cars it is only 50kgs.

Average bike weighs 12-15kg..

Thanks for the comment re nose weight - it's an smax with 90kg I believe

 Simon, sounds great - please let me know which model it is and what you'd like for it.

 

Thanks

It's a 949 easy base unit that clamps on the towball
