Great video, perfect timing for me. I just fitted my own Halfords 3 bike towball carrier to my silver mazda 6 to carry my cube stereo hybrid! Does the bike carrier have a reverse and/or fog light? I've got a 7 pin socket so maybe no reverse for me but I thought fog light might have worked.
Just checked there it out for you if you are within the uk it does. Google says... All trailers must have on the back two red sidelights, two red stop lamps, an illuminated number plate and two triangular red reflectors plus amber indicators designed to flash between 60 and 120 times per minute. If they are more than 1.3m wide, they must also have at least one red fog lamp. There are flaps on the each side of the bike clamps making it a bit awkward to secure the bike. Im going to remove them, a little bit at a time with a sharp knife. First time you put you bike on the stand you will know what i am talking about. I hope this helps you out
@@newellbros1483 Thanks. I've definitely got no reversing light or rear fog working on mine. Brakes, indicators and side lights all work. My towbar electrics have a wee switch inside the socket that turns off the reversing sensors when the socket is in use. It maybe turns off the reversing light too. I did a bit of research and it looks like the carrier is basically a rebranded buzzrack e-hornet 3 but with a couple of small differences. I've yet to use it but I'll look out for the issue with the wheel clamps you mention. Meant to ask, do you use a false top tube with your stereo hybrid or clamp onto your frame?
@@tumblew33d I tighten the adjustable clamp on the rear shock of my bike because it has a carbon frame. It is those clamps with the bits im going to remove. Bike is solid like that. I'm not sure how that would work with 3 bikes the same size. You could probably use the clamps to secure a bike or 2 at the seat post if you needed to.
@@newellbros1483 I'll try clamping the rear shock like you to avoid the carbon. That will keep it locked to the actual bike instead of the false top tube too.

Loved this! Just got the rack. Your kids are great. Thank you for sharing. :)
