Contrary i know but removing bike rack? (1 Viewer)

[Jj99]

Recent purchase is missing it's bike rack but still has the fixings in place- ish
Looking for a tidy way to cover this up, any advice will be gratefully received!

If in doubt cheat - stickers cover a multitude of filled holes.

I left mine on and made an aluminium strip to slot into them, I then fastened a plastic tarpaulin to it to make a shelter for the coolbox and sun loungers. Looks and works spot on.

If it's a Fiamma, you can get the bracket covers & blanking plugs through eBay.They just clip on - that's what I did when I took ours off.You can get both top & bottom covers. Just type in Fiamma bike rack brackets into search. Thought I had some photos but can't find them at the moment.

Fit a bike rack? Which may not be a completely daft suggestion, bike racks can be useful for hanging washing on, tying windbreaks and chairs to etc. We have a back box mounted on ours.
And of course

to Fun!

As John says, very handy. Our Hobby hasn't got one and I do miss it.

We put a Fiamma box on our bike rack, very very useful, worth getting a secondhand rack just to use it for carrying 'stuff'!

Excellent idea that one.

Personally I wouldn't use the bike rack as a bbq stand, where does all that spitting oil/food go?

So little, there is very little clean up.
