Boot bike rack for three bikes

Three solutions

Three solutions allow you to transport your bikes by car. The boot bike rack, secured with straps on the tailgate, is the easiest to use and fits many vehicles without special equipment. The towbar bike rack, which is more stable, requires a towball. The roof bike rack, mounted on bars, keeps the boot free but increases fuel consumption and the vehicle’s height.

Luggage

Luggage and transport options also include:

• Baby Seat.
• Panniers and Racks.
• Shoulder Bags.

All luggage can be found on the luggage and transport page.

Our two models

The P2R Ariane, made in France, is secured to the boot with six adjustable straps for a secure hold of three bikes weighing up to forty-five kilos, in accordance with its approval. The Peruzzo Verona, from the Italian specialist in bike racks, also holds three bikes, with the same maximum load. Pads protect the bodywork from contact with the tailgate.

Riding safely

Check the compatibility with your vehicle, especially if there’s a spoiler or a glazed tailgate. Tighten all the straps, secure the bikes to each other and to the rack, and check the tension after a few kilometres. If the bikes obscure the number plate or lights, the highway code requires additional plates and signal lights. Adjust your speed accordingly.

Frequently asked questions

Does a boot bike rack fit all cars?

It fits many vehicles thanks to its straps, but not all: a spoiler, a glazed tailgate or a specific bumper can prevent it. You should check the compatibility list of the model before purchasing.

Can electric bikes be transported on a boot bike rack?

Rarely: the maximum load of forty-five kilos for three bikes is quickly exceeded by electric bikes, which often weigh more than twenty kilos each. For these models, a towbar bike rack is more suitable.

Must the number plate remain visible with a bike rack?

Yes, if the bikes obscure the plate or lights, the highway code necessitates additional plates and signage. The rear lights must remain visible; otherwise, you risk a fine.

How do you correctly fix a boot bike rack?

Place the hooks on the edges of the boot, then gradually and symmetrically tighten the straps. The P2R Ariane has six straps; check their tension after a few kilometres, and then at each stop.

What speed should you maintain with a boot bike rack?

Adjust your driving: smoother acceleration and braking, moderate speed on the motorway, where the wind creates strong pressures. The manufacturer’s manual often specifies a maximum speed not to be exceeded.
