Bike Rack Dimensions

[SpeedyVW]

Hi,

Does anyone know how far the T6 bike rack protrudes out from the back window when it is folded up?

Thanks.

There are 2 types of bike rack available....

The original 'Kylie' style - more curvy!

The newer 'Quasi' style - more angular!

Which style are you considering?

Qausi sticks out 14 inches from tailgate

If it ever stops raining then I'll measure the Kylie rack on mine.

I was thinking the newer Quasi as didn't think the Kylie was still available? I'd be happy with either but it would probably come down to the one that sticks out least.

The most rearwardly-projecting parts of a Kylie are the 2 points marked with pink dots on the attached image, which each lie approx. 290mm directly outwardly of points on the glass that are approx. 150mm above the level of the shaft of the rear wiper. Because the tailgate is curved in 2 dimensions, it was difficult (without a plumb-line) to measure the distance from the VW badge, which is most rearward point of the tailgate. It looked about 200mm from there.

Hope that helps. The shop can get both the Kylie and the Quasi for the T6 and were doing either for £499 at the open day this November. The part number for the T6 Kylie is 7E0 071 104A - it projects less than the Quasi when in use too.

PS Nice Cali BTW
