Product Details

The Pendle Tow Bar Rack has been designed to fit standard vehicles with tow bars fitted such as estates, hatchbacks and saloons.  It consists of two bike rack "arms", which slot into the mounting block fitted to the vehicle's tow bar.  The bicycle frames are hung over and strapped securely to the two arms.  This rack does not have offset arms and we recommend that if you have a vehicle with a flat back such as a people carrier or 4x4 without a rear spare wheel you should purchase our Discovery Rack which has arms offset by 6 inches. This ensures that the handle bars and pedals of the first bike clear the back of the vehicle. (please see fitting guide).

The Tow Bar Rack is available as a 3 or a 4 bike capacity rack and there are two styles.  The rack is available with the Type Approval block (TA3 or TA4) and with arms corresponding to this block or it is available with the Ball Mounting Block with arms corresponding to this block (TBM3 or TBM4).

The Ball Mounting Tow Bar Rack is generally designed for swan neck tow bars as the mounting block clamps around the tow ball, though it can also be fitted onto the tow ball of standard 2 bolt flange type tow bars. You cannot tow whilst the ball mounting version of the Pendle Tow Bar Rack is fitted.

The Type Approval Tow Bar Rack is designed for standard 2 bolt flange type tow bars and the mounting block bolts between the tow ball and the towing bracket.  You can normally tow whilst this version of the Tow Bar Rack is fitted to your tow bar. However, we recommend that no more than 2 bikes are placed on the rack when towing and you should always check that your turning circle will not interfere with the bike rack loaded with and without bikes before you set off on your journey.

The Pendle Tow Bar Rack is a truly solid, sturdy, top quality rack with ample room for 4 bikes when purchasing the 4 bike capacity rack.

The Pendle Tow Ball Mounting 3 Bike Rack was recently tested by Practical Caravan whose verdict was: "well-engineered and easy to use"

You may need to purchase a lighting unit if the bike rack prevents your number plate and back lights from being seen by other road users.

We recommend that the bikes placed on the rack weigh no more than 13.5 kg each.
