Hi
I've come over from the other (D3) side
Brother in law has a (lovely) TDV8 HST and needs a bike rack - 3 bikes - fitted to swan neck tow bar that I am lending him
Needs it quick as going to Ireland on ferry on 14th - so pro fitting not really an option
Not interested in Maxx Rack - I had one and not impressed
Thanks in advance
Adam

Adam I think the Hollywood bike rack that I have should do the trick. Best I can do mate VA might still have the address as I gave it to him, very easy to use and store about £50.00 I think. Good Luck.

Cheers - I'll PM VA

Adam - let me know if you have any luck - I need something for the RRS (Maxxrack no good on RRS)

The Hollywood one looks pretty good RRS TDV6 SE Java Black +towpack +tintent +Permagrin

What a difference between this and my old Disco3
Formerly mxgeldar7

thule 895(?) are pretty decent ones, has all the rear light built into it aswell

I use it on my FL2 fixed towbar with out problems,

Would your friend have the electrics as the police are quite strict if lights are blocked and number plate is not showing

adam, I use one of these.

Works a treat and took 15 minutes to fit to the tow ball, and great value. Carries 3 or 4 full size bikes with ease. Just need to be a bit careful that the bikes don't rub against each other though - so not ideal if you use very expensive / precious bikes. RRS TDv8 HSE Rimini

Thanks guys - helpful as ever
I'll let my BIL know about police - suspect he may run out of time to get electrics sorted

I thought you had to have the fixed tow bar for these bike racks as opposed to the plug in job or is that just for the LR one  TDV6 - gone
TDV8 - gone

I had my FFRR removable tow hook adapted to take the Pendle, but the style of the removable RRS tow ball means that I cannot use the Pendle plug-in rack, it would work with the fixed tow ball though.

Anybody looking for a FFRR receiver type tow hook adapted for a Pendle Rack and the rack I have the whole lot gathering dust in my garage looking for a new home. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
