Thule tow bar mounted rack on new xc90
Having just read the Reevoo reports I am concerned/intrigued about this comment
"Protrusion at rear rendered my tow bar mounted bike rack redundant" I have ordered a T8 due 1.3.16 and have specced with tow bar. I have a Thule ball mounted 3 bike rack and am concerned that it wont now fit (which would be an enormous pain as it is a great bit of kit and cost me 400 notes just 3 years ago). Can anyone shed any light on this? Thanks

I bought a new towbar-mounted bike rack from the dealer with my car. It's got Volvo written on it but I'm pretty sure it's just a Thule that's been relabelled. It works fine.
My only difficulty is overcoming my sense of disbelief that the retractable tow bar won't retract when I'm moving, and that you can stick all that weight on a tow bar... So far, it's been absolutely fine! What does it say on Revoo? What problems have others had? |
