Vauxhall has launched an innovative built in bike rack in their new range of Corsa models. You may have noticed the television adverts on TV promoting the new Corsa model, however you could easily have missed the ‘flexfix intergrated system’, which for an additional £500 comes built into the rear bumper.
The innovative system can be stored away when not in use, stashing itself neatly in the space usually reserved for the spare wheel. When extended the rack can carry two bikes plus accommodate the number plate and rear lights needed to make it roadworthy.
£500 may be several times the amount paid for a typical rack, however it has so far been given the thumbs up by testers across a broad range of print and online publications and is an convenient alternative to the woes of traditional systems.
