Thread: Defender bike rack

I have a cheap one that is made to attach to the back of a hatch back car. Cost $80 dollars. The padded top bracket hooks over the top of the spare wheel, and then it is strapped in place from there. I only carry my son's bike on it, so has worked a treat. Made the journey to Cape York and back to Melbourne, along lots of corrigated roads. No drama's. Am going camping on the weekend, so will put it on, and take a photo.

Cheers,

I have Rhino roof rack mounted bike carriers.
Can't remember what the bike ones are, (Swedish ?) but Rhino supplied the carriers and adapters. They just lock straight into the Rhino rails.

I like the solid spare wheel mount but the td5 has alloy wheels and no hole in the middle.
Putting them on the roof would be to hard....
Thanks for all the replies so far!

I bought one of these and have it mounted to the floor in the back of my series 3. You just unclip the front wheel and clamp the forks into it. The rear wheel can be held down with a small loop of shock cord secured to the floor. works great, and the bike is inside your landy and no longer your rear crumple zone

Used to use (and still have loose) those clamps Paul in the back of my F100.
Was going to mount them in the tray of the 130, but i always have miles too much stuff there.

The rear crumple zone argument is why I throw mine on top.
Two bikes that are too expensive to replace.
