That's a lot of money for a > bike I added up the Yakima rack parts prices for two bikes and ski holder to be mounted on the rear hatch like some listmembers have done and it comes to $434.00. Ouch! That's with the $50/bike attachment (9mm std bike mount) not the Steelheads which are $82.50 each. Am I doing something wrong, I hope? (4) Qtowers #0105 $95 (1) Pair round bars #0410 33 (6) Lock cores 42 (4) Qclips 37 (I'm not sure what these do but they were recommended by john silverman <jsilver@MAIL.AROS.NET>) (2) 9mm std bike mounts 100 (2) Wheel forks 42 (1) Button Down 6 Ski caddy 85 TOTAL $434 They also have a nice Tandem carrier for only $285. All prices are from bikeusa.com webcatalog. I think the Paulchen may be less or equivalent even with ski accessories. I'm still waiting for a quote from listmember Steve Lashley who can import the Paulchen and Fiamma brands. Are you still there Steve? Let's get some economies of scale going with a big order, folks. -- Regards, David Bogle Brooklyn '87 Vanagon GL Syncro Westfalia '72 Campmobile 2.0L (For Sale: http://www.bway.net/~bogle ) |
