Pendle
Strap On Rack
The Pendle Strap On Rack is extremely versatile
and is a very good alternative rack for vehicles with no tow bar fitted. The
Strap On Rack will fit the majority of vehicles, with the exception of 4x4s with
rear spare wheels. The bonus of buying a Pendle Strap On Rack is that it comes
fully assembled and is very easy to fit to your vehicle. The rack straps onto
the back of the vehicle with strong webbed straps with gutter hooks attached to
the ends.
There are 6 straps altogether to ensure that
the rack is securely held in position - 2 straps hook onto the top of the
vehicle's rear door, 2 straps hook onto either side of the rear door and 2 hook
onto the bottom of the rear door. All of the gutter hooks are plastic coated to
safeguard the vehicle's paintwork. The rubber pressure pads provided are also
there as a safeguard.
The Strap On Rack has adjustable top arms so
that it can fit saloons, hatchbacks, estates, people carriers and other flat
backed vehicles and it also has adjustable cycle support arms. The length of the
cycle support arms can be adjusted, which enables the height at which the cycles
are carried to be either raised or lowered.
It may not be appropriate to fit gutter hooks to cars with glass hatches where
the hooks would rest on the glass. To enable you to still fit the Strap On Rack
to such vehicles, Strap On Window Attachments can be purchased as an extra.
These are dumb bell type attachments, which fit inside your boot and rest on the
inside of the rear door glass. To find out whether the Pendle Strap On Rack fits
your vehicle and whether or not you will require Strap On Window Attachments
please consult our fitting guide.
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.
