Derby Tow Bars Cycle Racks

Premium bike carriers for cars, campervans and motorhomes

Derby Tow Bars supplies and fits a carefully chosen range of cycle racks for cars, camper vans and motorhomes—focusing on safety, ease of use and compatibility with modern vehicles. Whether you’re heading out for a family ride, touring Europe in your camper, or taking e‑bikes on a long‑term motorhome trip, we match the right rack to your towbar and your lifestyle.

Towbar-mounted cycle racks for cars

Oris FIX4BIKE® systems

For cars with a towbar, we specialise in the Oris FIX4BIKE® system and Oris Tracc FIX4BIKE® carriers. FIX4BIKE® towbars use a unique contour-based locking system that makes attaching a compatible bike rack faster, safer and more secure than conventional friction-based clamping systems. The system self-aligns into position, uses a one-click mechanism with an audible lock, and is designed to remain secure even under emergency braking or evasive manoeuvres.

The Oris Tracc FIX4BIKE® carrier is a premium towbar-mounted rack designed specifically for FIX4BIKE® towbars. It carries up to 2 bikes or e‑bikes as standard, with an optional extension to carry a third bike. High-strength steel and aluminium construction gives excellent stability, while the carrier folds for compact storage when not in use.motrhome.com+1It’s also tiltable, allowing access to the boot even with bikes loaded, and is suitable for heavier e‑bikes thanks to its robust design and generous payload.

At Derby Tow Bars, we can supply and install both the FIX4BIKE® towbar and the compatible Oris Tracc FIX4BIKE® carrier, giving you a complete, future-proof solution for bike transport on your car.

Camper van cycle racks

Trigo-van, Fabbri Sesamo and Minnid systems

Camper vans need bike racks that respect rear doors, tailgates, ladders and conversions—so we focus on systems designed specifically for vans and leisure vehicles.

• Trigo-van Bike Rack: A van-focused rack system designed to mount securely while allowing practical access to the rear of the vehicle. Ideal for camper conversions where space and usability matter, Trigo-van style racks are built to cope with touring use and varied road conditions.

• Fabbri Sesamo Cycle Rack: Fabbri’s Sesamo range is known for clever, compact designs that work well on vans and campers. Typically lightweight yet sturdy, these racks are designed for easy loading and unloading, with secure wheel trays and frame supports to keep bikes stable on long journeys.

• Minnid Multi-Purpose Rack System: A flexible rack concept that can be configured for bikes and other gear, making it ideal for camper van owners who need one system to do multiple jobs. Multi-purpose racks are especially useful for adventure setups where bikes, boxes and accessories all need to travel together.

For each camper van, we look at door type, rear layout, towbar position and any existing accessories to recommend the most suitable rack and fitting method.

Motorhome bike racks

Sawiko / Al-Ko style solutions

Motorhomes often require chassis- or frame-mounted systems rather than simple car-style racks. Sawiko/Al-Ko type solutions are designed specifically for motorhomes, taking into account rear overhang, load distribution and compatibility with Al-Ko or similar chassis extensions.

These systems are typically:

• Purpose-built for motorhomes: engineered to work with longer rear sections and higher loads.

• E‑bike friendly: many options are designed to carry heavier electric bikes safely.

• Practical for touring: often include tilting or sliding functions to maintain access to rear storage or garages.

Derby Tow Bars can advise on the right style of rack for your motorhome, whether you’re carrying standard bikes, e‑bikes or a mixed family setup.
