Thule Elite G2 Bike Rack for Swift Group Caravans & Motorhomes

17/05/2016 IN New Product Launch

Thule Elite G2 Bike Rack on white backgroundA bike carrier is a must have on your caravan or motorhome, if you you intend on exploring your surroundings, once you arrive on-site.

The Thule Elite G2 Bike Carrier Standard Version has oversize oval frames for stability and features a lockable platform to prevent your bikes from moving during transport. The bike rails are adjustable from left to right to make sure you find the best position for your bikes without effort. Two sturdy wheel holders on each bike rail, with quick lock for ease of use and rack lock for security.

The Thule Elite G2 Bike Rack is equipped 2 carry 2 bikes as standard but thanks to its telescopic platform, the bike rack can be upgraded to a 3 bike carrier or 4 bike carrier, with these sets sold separately.

This really is a well thought out value added feature, that makes it possible to install the Thule Elite G2 Bike Carrier cycle rack to the majority of Swift Group caravans and Motorhomes without a window in the rear panel.

Thule Fixing Bars - Better Support & Easy Fitting

Thule Elite G2 Bike Rack close up of bike rack railFrom this year, working in partnership with Thule of Sweden, all Swift Group Caravans and Motorhomes are fitted as standard, with Thule fixing bars(or mounting rails as they are often called) on the rear panel.

Thule Fixing Bars are designed to spread the weight of the bike carrier and bikes evenly over the rear panels of the caravan or motorhome. They also help expedite the bike rack installation by offering a simple and straightforward fitting process. The Thule bike rack can be fitted to the Fixing Bars at the time of purchase or at a later stage, if and when required.

This premium quality caravan bike carrier allows you to transport your bikes safely, easily and in style no matter where you are travelling.

Hello William

Thank you for your comment regarding the Thule carrier for your Elddis Caravan. If you haven't already got the Thule rails fitted then you will need to contact Elddis for the rear diagram of the caravan back panel so that you can find out where the strengthening plates are for fitting the bracket and rail, but if you have already got the Thule rails fitted from manufactory then all you would need to do is measure the gap between the top and bottom rails so that we can advise what Thule G2 carrier you will need. If you would like more information please email me on steve@homesteadcaravans.co.uk or call 01255 830229.
Kind Regards
Steve
