VW bike rack load limit.

[SteveW]

Does anybody know the load/weight limit of the VW tailgate bike rack ? I'm looking to order one to carry my kite buggy as in doesn't fit in the back :doh Just a little concerned on how much load I can put on that tailgate etc ? I'm not sure how much my buggy weighs as yet, I will try and get it on the bathroom scales tomorrow :smile

Cheers
Steve

:doh Never mind guys I've just found the info, it's 60kgs. Just worried on how high above the roof it would stick up now I've seen a close up pic of one :?

Fine but a word of caution make sure you have nothing sticking up higher than the rack or when you open the roof you may hear some interesting noises
