I am thinking of getting one, they look really practical and great for getting all the kit to the shows.

What do you think?

I've seen something similar on the back of my mates camper that I took to newark last year, that one had a big plastic box with a locking lid, cliped on to it. Was realy good, but I think its expensive with the box.

Hi- finally managed to get into the chat.. I am the guy who designs/makes/sells bak-raks - so I can answer most [all?] questions about them. They sell for £94 inc £15 P&P but quote this chat and I'll give you £10 off. We've tested them with 700Kg on - so you won't break it doing anything sensible. You can put a posh aluminium box on it - or use a B&Q £40 garden cushion box. We sell them for all sorts of things - from microlight planes to beehives - only limit is your imagination as they say!! As a PS I am a certified car nut having played with rally cars ever since university days. Buy loads of bak-raks and I can start running some fun cars again!! PPS I can send to Europe for the same price - but US and Canada is pricey for shipping. PPPS bak-rak.com is our web site.

i may be having one,,
i mentioned a mod to simon by way of welding a large nut on the bit above the ball so a screw handle can be used to wind it up and off with ease,,

if you incorporate my idea into a new generation then can you look after me on price

Hi Pete,

Thanks for joining us.

I bought a bak-rak and can confirm they are brilliant. I have made myself a wooden platform for it, to make it a bit more versatile for smaller items like our club generator.

I thing its great, brillaint design and really handy to have and of course when im not using it, I just hand it up in the garage.

On mu Dakar I dont even realise its there!

My problem is that I strugle to remove it.

The best way I have found is to put a jack under it and jack it off, which is not ideal.

How do you suggest that they are removed?

Simon
