Tow-bar bike rack that allows tailgate access

[Trins2225]

Hi,
Just bought a T6 Ocean. Don’t want bikes up high mounted on the back. Can anyone offer advice about adding a tow bar (any particular one) and what make of tow bar mounted bike rack for 2 non-electric bikes. I want one which tilts to allow access to the rear of the van.
Any help, much appreciated.
Thanks

Can recommend the Thule Velospace XT939-3 with a Westfalia Removeable bar.

This tilts back enough to open my tailgate.

This is with 3 bikes. You can get a 4th bike adaptor too.

It has two tilting angles, one clears the tailgate even with the bikes on.

Thank you. I will look at it. We have a Thule on a regular vehicle and it’s always been excellent. The seller of our vehicle gave us the heads up about height being problematic when travelling in Europe when the bikes are up high and we are too young for fold-up bikes yet I feel! Thanks so much for the reply.

There is a lot of information on the forum about racks and opening tailgates, this thread is a good place to start
