Any recommendations for a good roof mounted cycle carrier for a 124? It has to go on the roof. I dont want a tailgate or towbar mounted one. The 124 roof bars have a much smaller diameter than modern roof bars and have an odd profile. I don't want to buy one that doesn't fit well. Thanks...

So now that I've seen a few rays of sun, I'm tempted to trade in a bike or two and get a touring bike... That said, as usual, it needs to be Italian (like all my bikes!) Any ideas? I was thinking of a Ducati ST2 or ***... they have some good reviews and look quite nice... Any others...

Hi I've still got roof bars and a bike rack from the 10 plate C220 CDI I had from work. Now I'm changing jobs I've got a W202 C200 and while I know the roof bars wont fit I wonder if anyone can tell me if the new bike rack will fit the old bars? It slots in to a channel in the roof bars when...

A viewpoint is that cyclists are using the (note) Public Highway for their pleasure / commute and should be licenced and pay their way in order to use them. This sparked a thought off that would seem argumentative in that thread, which is not the intention, but is a relevant spin-off from it...

Does anyone have roof rack and bike carriers for an S210. I have contacted Halfords and the price just kept going up with all the bits and pieces needed. I have two bikes I want to carry on the roof. I don't like the rear mounted carriers and would not use them. Thank you for looking:)

How many MB cycle carriers can you fit onto standard MB roof bars? Picture in the instructions suggests four, as does MB accessories catalogue, but I'm stuck at 3...:wallbash:

Following on from a discussion that was in danger of highjacking another thread, which has better brakes, a car or a bike. So far we've had: "Surely the bike will be outbraked by any reasonable car? Just think 4 reasonably sized contact patches against (effectively) 1 very small one. " and...

Yesterday on the way home, I was hit on the rear quater panel by an elderly gentlemen riding a powabike electic bike. this has left a nice big dent above the wheel arch and right on the swage line. The bike was completely undamaged. The guy was taken to hospital with hip pain and I called the...

This is what my brother did to his 53 Reg 530d last night: He entered a Carpark with one of those Max Headroom signs on it, the mountain bike was forced back along the roof rails and into the window! He carries the bike on their nearly all the time for the past 2 years aswell. I reckon...

Edited... So how do I get youtube video to show? I see the tags {YOUTUBE} etc and put the url between them but nothing shows>

Was trundling along the Exter stretch of the M5 this afternoon, when I hear a siren, notice the car behind move from the third to second lane and see the police bike coming up, light on and sirens wailing. Wasn't that much space to my left, but enough that I could put two wheels in the centre...

Please see following the original description from when I bought this. It was for my partner's son but sadly it does not fit him (growing 16 year old!) so simply turning it round! Real shame as it is a SERIOUSLY cool jacket and if it fitted me I'd keep it in a heartbeat! Original 1980's...

As per my earlier thread I can't fit my MB bike racks to my MB roof rack bars. If anyone out there has any combination of MB roof bars/boxes/bike carriers I'd appreciate it if you could measure the fittings on what you have to see if it's possible to shed some more light before I schlep off...

Hi All, Last year I bought some new old stock MB roof-mounted bike racks. I already have a set of MB roof rack bars and an MB roofbox. Over the weekend I tried fitting the bike racks to my MB roof rack bars and had two problems; - I couldn't get them on as the lugs are a couple of mmm's...
