Hi,

We have recently purchased 3 electric bikes.

We would like to be able to travel to new places to ride them and so need a bike carrier of some description.

We do not have a tow bar (we could look into getting one if required)...

However at the moment the cheapest and easiest option seems to be... put 60% of the back seats down and throw one in the back of the car and then buy a rear boot carrier for the remaining two bikes.

The bikes weigh just under 20kg each. I have managed to find one rear boot carrier that takes a max of 45kg...

So my questions are...

Anyone have experience of a rear boot carrier, will it rub the paintwork if used regularly? Anything else to consider?

Could we buy a 3 bike carrier (higher weight capacity) and just put 2 bikes on it to stay within the weight limit?

Thanks in advance.
