Title: Bike Rack
Post by: steve6367 on 30 May 2016, 10:35:37

Can anyone recommend something they have used successfully on an Omega? I would like it to be useable on the Saloon and Estate, both have towbars so suspect to fit both that is going to have to be the mounting point.

Need to carry minimum 2 bikes.

Any recommendation?

Many thanks

Steve

Thule 970 works well on my estate( and previously my Legnum, 525, Capri etc). Sensibly priced, it fits in seconds, securely carries 2 heavy mountain bikes at sustained motorway speeds. I believe they do a 3bike version. The light board is expensive, but alternatives are easy.

Thank you both, I have a further complication now as one of the bikes does not have a top cross bar.

So looking at this, looks good but not cheap!!
