Wife has just bought a 2020 Caravelle with a tow bar. Would like to get a bike carrier for the daughters’ bikes (2/ 3 bikes?)

What do you recommend?

many thanks!

I've had a Thule and a Halfords, if you want integrated lights etc they are quite expensive.

My Thule 4 bike jobby was about £500, I see the modern equivalent is now £700+ eek

The Halfords Advanced I have now is fine, does the same job, but you can't tilt it enough to get the tailgate open with bikes on it.

I can get my XXL Stumpjumper and three other bikes on it no problem.

When I last looked into this, the only 3/4 bike rack that'll reliably fit a transporter with a tailgate is an Atera Strada. The others don't tilt/slide enough (i'm sure there's the odd exception). More info on the T6 forum

There are DL and Evo versions, I think mine is the DL. Had an evo on a previous car and that was pretty good but not 100% sure if it'll fit on a transporter
