I'm thinking of getting a Dave Cooper van rack for my bongo, it has an 85kg nose weight which is probably better than many vehicles that use racks but it has a fair bit overhang past the back axle. Has anyone used a trials rack on a bongo. It will be to carry a montesa Cota 247 initially

Cheers

Yes mate, we have a bongo which carries my sons big wheel beta 80 in the back, and my bike on a Dave cooper rack on the tow bar! Bomgo.. What a great bit of kit!

Hope this helps.

Cool! No grief with the suspension bottoming out etc?

If you have your belly pan fitted on the bongo , it should not be a problem. My bongo does bottom out occasionally but never caused a problem.

Cheers, I've got a trailer but it's hassle and the local trials ground is really local

A rack on a Bongo will be fine, That's the least of your worries with a Bongo!

Thanks Steve, I'm in my eleventh year of Bongo ownership well accustomed to all the benefits of owning one.

Have you got one?

No, but I can play them without drumsticks!

 

I actually spent many years importing and selling them but that's another story!

 

My old man has one but I leave it to my brother to sort as he's the one that talked him into it!

 

My wife said she wanted one so I got her a Granvia!!!

 

 

They were a bit rare when we got ours, got it via AVA practically brand new when it was imported.

Good call on the Granvia
