I am considering a bike rack for the back of the Paj & would like some advice as I dont have a lot of cash but I want it to be secure also.

I dont want them on the roof though.

Have tried that one, but I am limited to about 50 quid.

www.towsure.co.uk
they do racks for the rear.
I have one that the adapter bolts onto the hook in middle of bumper ans it holds two adult bikes nae probs and would at a guess hold yer kiddies one also.
after use it slides up and oot for storage and normal use, leaving the braket in situ saving loads of farting aboot.

make sure that you order the one for the rear wheel style and an adapter/spacer or it winae fit.

Try halfords:

I doubt you'll find anything worth having for any less than this. These carriers tend to be a little optimistic on the max. load as well - so although this is a 4 bike rack, it will be far more stable with 2 bikes than 2 bike rated carrier.

I wouldn't try to hard to get the cheapest one possible though - I've tried or seen quite a few of these and the cheap ones are quite nasty - I'd prefer to spend a few quid more to know that (a) my bike will still be on the back of the car when I arrive and (b) that the paint on both bikes and car will still be intact...

Alaric.
