Which Towbar Do I Need?
Fixed Towbars
As well as being functional and easy to fit, fixed towbars offer excellent value for money.
Swan Neck
This is the most common type of towbar used across Europe, with a slimmer profile than a flange towbar, and is compatible with a wide range of vehicles.
- Compatible with AL-KO stabilisers
- Less likely to trigger reversing sensors
- Can attach a cycle carrier but you can't tow at the same time
- Cannot be fitted with a bumper shield
Flange Ball
Traditionally used in the UK for all serious forms of towing and generally the most cost effective option. A 50mm towball is bolted to a two or four hole plate (vehicle dependant) that also allows the fitting of a 25mm spacer so that accessories such as a towbar mounted cycle carrier can be used.
- Tow and carry cycles at the same time (subject to nose load limits)
- Bumper shields can be fitted
- AL-KO towballs can be fitted
- The towing height can be adjusted on commercial and 4x4 four-hole plate towbars
- A choice of towing couplings and accessories can be fitted
Detachable Towbar
Mainly used in the rest of Europe and slimmer than a flange bar, detachable towbar systems have become increasingly popular as they have the added benefit of not being on the vehicle when not required
- Towball is removed when not in use preserving 'shins'
- Unrestricted access to the boot
- AL-KO and other friction type stabilisers can be fitted
- Won't trigger reversing sensors when not towing
- Can attach a cycle carrier but you cant tow at the same time
