2007 Range Rover Sport TDV8 HSE Java Black
Roof Mount Bike Carrier

Hi

Having spent a small fortune on the Roof Rail system, I am getting ready to go to center parcs only to find that the brackest on my Thule Bike carruers are too narrow to fit arounf the Range Rover rails.

So does anybody have 2 bike carriers for sale or can tell me what bike carriers I can buy that will fit.

Thanks

It's OK, the thule bike carriers adapt to the track system on the roof rails. Pull the rubber strip out and your local roof rack shop will give you the bolts to slide into it. Come in packs of 3. Think I have a picture in my D3 gallery. If in a hurry The Roof Rack Shop in Livingston will send out first class http://www.roofrackshop.co.uk/index.htm

BCP thanks

I just have 2 metal strips that connect to the 2 bars forming the bike stand. These have U bolts that are tightened with Plastic bolts with a grip. There are 2 U bolts at the ront and 1 at the back.

Are you saying they can provide a wider plate for me as the one I have cant be any wider I dont think. I did think of getting it drilled but the plate is not wide enough.

If the racks are thule then the brackets come off and the bolts replace them. I did this to some thule 510s.
