Rear Mounted Bike Racks

Rear mounted bike carriers are an essential piece of kit for transporting bikes safely and efficiently. Known for being the cheapest way to transport your bike, they are ideal for occasional use and are vehicle specific when it comes to fitting. Certain body shapes, spoilers and split boots can affect whether or not your vehicle is suitable, so it's worth checking before-hand. Rear mounted racks attach to your vehicle using retaining straps, and are extremely popular because unlike roof mounted and towbar mounted bike racks , they don't require an additional mount. For anyone using a rear mounted bike carrier, it's worth noting that it may cover your lights and number plate, in which case you'll need to fit a lighting board too.
