Hi Folks...has anybody bought one of these:
http://www.brandrup.de/en/brandrup-.../vw-vehicle-exterior/vw-load-bearing-devices/
It looks like a handy way to create a bit of extra space.
One thing that I can't quite work out is that it says you can carry 2 bikes. While the longest retaining arm of the rack will hold the a bike on the 3rd space out from the back of the rack, I can't see how you can safely attach a 2nd bike (on the most outward or 4th holder) as the detachable arm which normally attaches to the second bike can no longer be used. I'm probably not describing that particularly well but hopefully you'll get my drift.
Your views would be welcomed as I'm debating whether to purchase or not.
