Get a bike carrier for the back of the caravan! Bike carriers for caravans allow you to take your bikes with you. It’s an easy enough proposition but one that requires a specific solution to match your caravan or motorhome.

A few considerations that you might have before you go drilling holes in the back of your van are:

• Does my caravan have windows at the back that will be unable to be opened with a bike carrier attached?
• Does the rear wall of my caravan have the structural support to hold the weight of a bike carrier & bikes? Many vans don’t as the traditional timber framing is not strong enough.
• When the bikes are fitted, will I be able reach the bikes to get them down / put them back up?
• Will the height of the bikes when fitted cause them to scrape on driveways / inclines etc?
• Will the bikes interfere with the spare wheel/s or caravan cover?

In our experience, fitting a bike carrier almost always requires a custom solution to ensure a professional fit for the caravan or motorhome. Take a look at a custom set up we made for this Fiamma Bike Carrier specifically so that the caravan cover could be fitted without having to remove the bike carrier or the bikes.
