FAQ on Transport and Luggage Solutions
What can be carried using roof bars?
Roof bars and cross bars are the mounting point for most roof-based accessories — a roof box, bicycle carrier, or ski and snowboard holder all attach to them.
Is there a speed limit when driving with a roof box fitted?
There's no single legal maximum, but as a general rule of thumb it's safer to keep speeds moderate — many manufacturers recommend around 130 km/h or less — since a roof box changes your car's aerodynamics and handling.
What should I keep in mind when loading a roof box?
Spread the weight evenly, stay within the maximum load stated in the fitting instructions, and secure everything with the straps supplied so nothing shifts in transit.
How many skis or snowboards fit on a ski and snowboard holder?
Capacity depends on the specific holder — some models take up to four pairs of skis or a couple of snowboards. Ask us which option suits your vehicle.
Can a bicycle carrier take e-bikes?
Many tailgate-mounted carriers are rated for e-bikes, though the exact weight limit and bike count varies by model — we can confirm which carrier suits your bikes.
How is a rear box fitted?
A rear box clips onto a compatible tailgate-mounted bicycle carrier using a simple click system, so it can be attached and removed as needed.
What can a ball coupling tow?
A ball coupling lets you attach a trailer, caravan or similar — and it also gives you a mounting point for accessories like a tailgate bicycle carrier.
Can a ball coupling be fitted after purchase?
Yes — we recommend having it supplied and fitted by us, so your vehicle's electronics continue to work correctly with the towing setup.
What types of ball coupling are available?
Fixed, detachable and swivelling versions are all available, depending on how often you tow and how much boot access you need when you're not.
How do I stop luggage sliding around in the boot?
A luggage tray, net, or plug-in module all help keep items in place — and a luggage tub is worth adding too if you're regularly carrying anything that could spill.
