There are a couple of Halfords options, depends on how fancy you want it to be, witter also do a 4 bike one. Thule don’t do a 4 bike rack where you put the bikes wheels on the rack, they do one where you hang the bikes from the crossbar if you see what I mean. Advantage of these is they pack down a little smaller! There is nothing that can't be fixed with a hammer😜😜

I have a Thule 9705 which was great but it is for a flange type towbar so, as I now have deployable towbar, I am going to get the equivalent 9708 which is the same rack but designed to fit on the tow ball.

i am a bike snob too and i have the Halfords one pictured bang for buck it is great and i carry 4 bike all the time with it. not trying to show off but to put it into perspective the combine value of all the bikes is close to 10K.

We have the Thule VeloSpace XT 3 which can have a adapter to accommodate 4 bikes, great bit of kit and you can get into the boot!

Bagged and now have sitting in our garage what seems a bargain from a good, local private seller on eBay. A used twice Halfords Exodus 4 Bike Tow Carrier (still has untouched bits and pieces in original instruction pack). Presents as a good, sturdy piece of kit that has faired well in reviews, including AutoExpress a couple of years ago… and it folds back and away to allow access to the boot |
