Isi Bike rack/carrier

[bent]

Hi People

Does any one in Brisbane (or Gold Coast) have an Isi off road bike carrier? would like to look at one in the flesh.

Either PM or email beesa3@optusnet.com.au

Many thanks.

I dont have the iSi carrier however I do have a Thule carrier that mounts to the spare wheel.

Puts the bikes up nice and high and swing open with the rear door on the D2 without having to change anything. Not sure on what your vehicle is though.

The iSi does look good however, but no other use for your tow hitch when the carrier is in use.

Did you manage to find one in Brisbane? Would also love to see one 'in the flesh'.

Ranga,

I am in Coffs and have the 4x4x4 carrier. So if you have trip through the mid north coast let me know and you can have a look.

My family and in laws are in SEQ and we do bring up the family bikes occasionally but I am not sure when the next trip will be. Sorry I can't help with brissy or the Gold Coast in the near future.

Comments about the rack itself: heavy to lift and fit, a bit of a fiddle to get the set up right with 4 bikes of different sizes but now it is set up- loading and unloading is really quick. The quality is very good, assistance from George at isi is really good too.

As another post said, it does take up the tow hitch- I do not tow a whole lot and just picked up another hitch receiver 2nd hand to have my regular tow bar on, that saves undoing the hitch stabiliser each time.

Thanks mate. Can you please let me know when you come up this way next?

[PKD4]

Will do Ranga,

I am not sure when we will be in Brisbane for long enough to justify bringing the whole family's bikes up. It will be at least April, but it might be even later, depending on time off work etc.

I will let you know.
