Boxes We offer two types of box - a simple plastic box and a range of aluminium boxes. Details are on a separate page. Bike Racks Any bike rack designed to fit on a roof rack will fit on the base-rak. And because it is mounted nearer the centre-line of the car and out of the wind it should be more stable and certainly easier to put the bike into position. We sell a basic Italian made bike-rack manufactured in thousands as our standard fit bike rack and you can fit up to five of these onto the Xtender bars or three onto the base-rak directly. We advise the use of Xtender bars for any number as that makes it easier to remove the bike-raks to use the base-rak for other purposes. Do check your car's tow-ball carrying capacity before buying allowing 18Kg per bike with rack and 8Kg for the base. A 4-bike combination of base-rak, Xtenders, four bike-raks and light-bar brackets sells for £199 with the light-bar an extra £20. Increase it to a five-bike combination with an extra bike-rak for another £20.

Odd Brackets Bak-rak is a new generation of multi-use rack that aims to provide the flexibility to carry stuff mounted behind the car. To achieve this we have a range of brackets that allow all sorts of combinations to be produced. Note : You don't need any of these brackets for any of the normal bak-rak operations - carrying bikes etc. The brackets are to allow you to do other things. What ? 1. Flat stainless steel bracket to
allow flat items to be fitted and locked onto the rack. We use this
bracket to mount a light-bar - but 2. Cross stainless steel bracket to
allow two tubes to be locked together at right-angles. One of the tubes
has to be able to slide the 3. Tube - we recommend using stainless tube which we sell at £15 per metre [spec is type 304 25x25x1.5 wall]. Up to you to cut it off to the lengths you want and limited by what DHL are prepared to ship. How? Use the brackets to give you the sort
of rack that you need. You can use cross-brackets to mount vertical posts to give another level on the rack [e.g. skis mounted above a bag of ski-boots]. You can fit a flat plywood deck using the flat brackets with cut-outs for a wheel-chair, electric scooter, kite-buggy or push-chair to conveniently locate them on the rack. You can fit a box onto Xtender brackets so it can be rapidly changed for bike-racks. The only limitations are your imagination and the loading on the tow-bracket.
