Richb2004v2 Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Has anyone any idea where I might get a bike rack for my Mitsubishi L200? It has a spare wheel on the back so no chance of putting it there. It has an enclosed carry boy thing on the back which does not detach. It has a small roof rack type thing on the top which can be removed. At the moment I am putting both the mountain bikes in the back which is not ideal. I doubt that there is actually anything available but I thought that it’s worth asking. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardog Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 (edited) Have you tried any local bike shops in Rayong or Pattaya area. I am not sure if rayong has any but Pattaya does & they would be able to point you in the right direction especially if you bring in your Thai girl to ask them - unless your Thai speaking is fluent. The other way to go is take your bikes in your car & have a steel fabricator make you a rack. Must be a few in your area. They are pretty crafty & it would probably be cheaper than an import. In fact they could probably use your existing small rack & you would avoid rust issues as well. Good luck Beardog Edited March 22, 2008 by Beardog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_hippo Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 It has a spare wheel on the back so no chance of putting it there. Oh, yes, there is! Either see if your Mitsubishi dealer has one or contact ProBike Bangkok, if they do not have one in stock Khun Natee will order one for you.

mr_hippo Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Ahother place you can try for a rack is the Thule distributor Aeroflex International Co. Ltd. Automotive sales office: 947/156 Moo 12 Bangna-Trad RD. Prakhanong Thailand +66 274 430 20 +66 274 430 30 [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jareddiving Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 They sell them at the 4*4 shop in Pattaya. i was there a few days ago and i saw the roofrack models. They had a Thule and 2 or 3 different ones. The Shop is between the Mac Donalds on Sukhumvit and the Nua intersection. Good service and fair pricing. No special Farang price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wilko Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Many of the accessory shops on Sukumvit stock Thule roof racks imported from Sweden. These offer a range of compatible adaptions for bikes and are of superb quality.........make sure you are sitting down when they tell you the price though. oh yes...shop around too the prices vary enormously.

MrPlumbs Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 I designed this for my Fortuna using blue water pipe as a master then had it made at a stainless steel place.. cost around 3500B. the bike arms are hinged and it worked perfectly on a recent run to Khao Yai with three bikes on board just added a red led light and a red rag to the end of the arm for safety next version will have shorter arms.....
