    My bike fell off my tow bar rack

    I have the Thule XT2 rack but I back the Thule bike clamps up with a Fiamma Bike Block Pro as it fully loops around the frame. It's not lockable, but between the two of them the bikes not going anywhere and the Fiamma fitting is the same diameter as the Thule tubing so its a perfect fit on the...

    Lake District Borrowdale bash route inc Walla Crag

    Anyone ridden the Borrowdale Bash route from Keswick and gone via Walla Crag instead of the longer road route out of Keswick? Visiting in half term and want to ride it, found several gpx's for the classic route but none that include Walla Crag on it. Have replanned it in Komoot to go that way...

    What Towbar Bike Rack are people using in the UK?

    Thule XT2 Easyfold with the addition of a Fiamma Bike Block Pro (the adjustable one pictured) as I don't entirely trust the Thule clamp style on it's own (though never had an issue with it) I just like the fact the Fiamma completely loops around the frame. Connection fits the Thule rack...

    Tour Du Mont Blanc ebike resources?

    So for my Alps trip next year I'm considering doing the Tour of Mont Blanc instead of just hitting up the PDS bike parks. I've found a few resources and gpx files for the route as a 5 day tour but they're all for riding it on an MTB rather than eMTB. I can probably re-work the routes/stops to...

    Scotland Trip

    To be honest I mix it up as much as possible between DH rides and big trail days out. DH on my Enduro/Trail on my ebike. I take both when I get away on trips. Probably slightly favour the big trail days out more so long as there's good descents/singletrack etc on them. Don't want to spend hrs...

    Scotland Trip

    It is a fair bit of driving, especially as I live down in Kent. About 8-9hrs to Innerleithen I think. Looking at about 9 days for the trip to make sure we have at least a couple of days at each spot. Couple of early starts and we can get things like travel between Innerleithen and Torridon done...

    Scotland Trip

    Planning a trip to Scotland next year which will probably be Innerleithen/Torridon/Fort Williams with a couple of other rides to break up journey times. Looking for a couple of tips - 1) Torridon accommodation? Have found a place with some cabins 15mins away but doesn't seem to be much...

    Bike Rack tow bar

    No it's to prevent damage to carbon frames from the jaws. Basically spreads the load of the clamps over a wider area. Google Thule Carbon frame protector and it'll come up in the search. Use it on mine with zero issues.

    Bike Rack tow bar

    Thule easyfold xt 2 for me as well. Been up and down everything from motorways to dirt tracks with it on the back with zero issues. Just remember to get the carbon frame protector if you have a carbon bike.

    North Wales Trip

    Planning a North Wales trip for the end of August. Have done south wales a few times now so looking for some new rides. Will have 3 days with the ebike and hopefully 2 batteries by then to cram in as much as I can. Probably a few trail centre rides and hopefully a couple of others incl Snowdon...
