Hi all. Could anybody guess which cycle rack fits my Hymer 534 ? Approx dimensions ;- 60cm horizontal distance between the two top brackets, 97cm vertical distance from upper to lower.
Thanks in anticipation

Mike

Just had a look and none look right with the exception of one which, unlike the van, is a new addition to the range. none of them seem to incorporate that lower central bracket

Have you looked at Omnistor racks. If it is an imported vehicle many european racks are omnistor - I believe these are manufactured in Belgium. Just a thought

Thanks everyone for the input so far. Had a look at the Omnistor pdf file and agree with you Phil that it looks very similar. The diagram refers to an L bar where mine is a U shape, but possibly it is a different model. Off to find their website, thanks all

Mike

Think I have found it ! Turned out to be a Fiamma after all. The center lower bracket looks just right. See below
Thanks again for the input
