| Cycle Carriers and Towbar |
|
Looking to change my removable towbar and fit a fixed towbar with a Thule 9705 cycle carrier. Any body have this combination and is there any problem with towing a caravan.

I have that combo. No problem at all. Has the towbar not got the drop plate for adjusting height?
