I've already promised it to a colleague at work for hols. I'll need to check they don't clash. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10492#post-114875 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 15:10:42 +0000 DaveC 114875@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Many thanks for the many kind offers. As Instography is closest to me I shall accept his very kind offer. Insto, I recall your rack from that time you gave me a lift home that time, many thanks. I'll give you a call in a day or so to pop by and see if it fits on our we car. If it does I'll collect a day before we head off so you are not left without.</p> <p>Many thanks again all.</p> <p>Dave C </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10492#post-114873 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:55:52 +0000 wingpig 114873@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Depends which weeks in July, but I've a basic Revolution tailgate rack which will take 3 bikes and doesn't clamp too hard on the top tube. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10492#post-114870 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:47:42 +0000 Morningsider 114870@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hi DaveC - we've got a rear rack that you can borrow (assuming I can find all the bits - it hasn't seen the light of day for several years). If you fancy it then let me know and I will scour the shed tonight and see if it is all there. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10492#post-114868 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:45:14 +0000 amir 114868@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>I have a bikerack that you could borrow. You'd have to pick it up/drop it off though. It's quite a good one but it's been a long time since I used it - we stick the bikes in the boot. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10492#post-114864 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 14:29:02 +0000 Instography 114864@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Depending on the dates, my rear rack might be available. The only other person I know with a carbon bike was unwilling to have it on a roof rack because it depends on squeezing the down tube. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=10492#post-114843 Tue, 18 Jun 2013 12:31:05 +0000 DaveC 114843@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Wanted - Roofrack Footpacks 754 plus fitting kit 1084 for 2 weeks in July.</p> <p>I know its remote that anyone even knows their own roofrack model but I have a roofrack from when we had our old car and would like to borrow the adapters for our current replacement car. Its for a Ford Ka and I need the footpacks 754 (currently ~£74 <a href="http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_766157_langId_-1_categoryId_165618">here</a> eek!! Also need the Fitting kit 1084 <a href="http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_storeId_10001_catalogId_10151_productId_156722_langId_-1_categoryId_165618">here</a> for another ~£35</p> <p>I don't want to spend another hundred quid on these as I only plan to keep the car for another year.</p> <p>Alternatively, anyone have a rear bike rack I could borrow please? Its only for my Carbon bike so it'll be light and strapped to the car for the ride down and back.</p> <p>Cheers,</p> <p>Dave C </p>
