Looked at this new type of flat deck rack today released by Opposite Lock and thought it wasn't too bad an option.
OL rack
Makes sense being flat - with less wind noise when not in use and keeps height down - getting around those ignorant underground car park designers. :(
HD alloy construction, so only 25kgs and very flexible setups similar to rhino options.
Options incl holders for single/double jerries, shovel/jack, tyre, gas bottle, fishing rods, eye bolts for ratchet straps, purpose designed
water tank holder ( they also do a flat pack type
water tank which you could strap to a cargo barrier- 52lts), optional ground ladder.
Would hold space cases, roof sacks etc. They even utilised the area under the rack above the vehicle roof to hold a camping table.
Comes in various sizes 1.4mts ($1018) or 1.9mts ($1295).
Better picture of rack in this months 4x4 Australia pge 33.
Easier to pack I thought with lower loading height.
Any thoughts, it seems to do everything any other rack would do, am I missing something obvious here?
cheers
