Hi All, i am looking for some help. I need to find a bike rack which can mount to the a frame of our caravan . (Windsor Rapid 521) I do not want to mount it to the rear due to blocking of number plate, weight, vibration etc. I need to carry 2 adult and 2 kids bikes. Any help or direction would be appreciated.

Regards

we also have the Fiamma bike rack. not cheap works well but I figure you get what you pay for.
The model I have fits two bikes and I believe there is also a 3 bike model for the drawbar. Other bikes can be mounted on roof rack fittings on the car.

Hi Larry,

I had the same issue when i had a Rapid. I ended up building a rack myself and it worked fine. You did have to take the bikes off to use the front bed, but I felt this was an acceptable compromise - I could see the bikes via my rear view mirror. And while these shots show small kids bikes, it worked well for full-size adult bikes.
