Bike rack on a Zed?

[PeteDench]

Hi people,

 

I'm looking for a bike rack that will fit in/on/around the boot of a zed.

 

Seen loads online at various prices, does anyone have any experiences with any of these

Boot squire, (think that right). Make one but it rather expensive.

 

But there was another option, check out the search function!

Boofsquire, custom made thing, expensive and not available anymore.

 

Saris Bones, works a treat, available anywhere.

Cheers guys

Do a search as well. As there have been two or three people in the past that have purchased cycle racks for their 350.

There was a thread only a couple of days ago about this, iv decided on the saris bones 2. Evans Cycles are doing a discount too.

 

I'd get you the link but I'm on my phone.

 

There are pictures of it fitted in one of the threads too.

I use the Halfords universal high level carrier. Sits on top of the boot and uses the number plate recess for support (only works if you've got a UK rear bumper).

 

Will try take some pics this weekend.

Buy a 4x4 or an estate...... I still cant get my head around people wanting to put a bike rack on a sports car..... God am old

Couple of rubbish mobile phone pics I've found. I took them just before I removed the rack, so ignore the flappy straps. Gives an idea how it fits..

 

 

 

Just make sure your boot is clean before you fit it!

I cant get my head round why people would want a 4x4 or an estate and i am getting old too... lol

 

The way i see it, a sports car is fun and sensible when needed. i.e when the bike rack is on which is rare compared to the fun driving without it, an estate/4x4 is sensible all the time and would spend most of the time not being used to its spacious potential.

 

Guess its a balancing act. I'm far more impractical than practical.

I'm selling the Zed, so the bike rack will have to go too. I never actually got a chance to use it other than to trial the fitting as seen in the photos. If anyone want to make me an offer on it then let me know. It's still boxed as new.
