longlegscanbeuseful Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 I used to have one of these, very well made and the galvanised finished meant it didn't age at all. http://www.pendle-bike.co.uk/shopping/kliponoff-ws.php Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richt Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Dave Cooper makes several versions; Junior, Car, Van or Motorhome, 4x4, Basically the difference is how much clearance they leave between your bike and the back of your vehicle. If you have a spare wheel on your Disco' the 4x4 is for you. Kliponoff racks (now Pendle) only make one size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazz229 Posted September 21, 2012 Report Share Posted September 21, 2012 I had one of those Dave Cooper racks on the back of my Vauxhall Vectra and wouldn't hesitate in buying another. So simple to use! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline1 Posted January 6, 2013 Report Share Posted January 6, 2013 I bought my Dave Cooper second hand thinking it was the correct one for my small camper van. I used it a few times with no problems & then one day out of the blue the bike handlebars smashed the rear window, Yes the bike was secure it happened on a flat road! When I looked into it I think mine must be for a car. I need to make a spacer for it now to stop it from happening again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turn the rack round so the front wheel points the opposite way ya may find it sits better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
