I have just bought a tow mounted bike rack which is made of metal and can hold 4 mountain bikes. Do you know what the maximum weight I can carry on the back of a 1995 Nissan Serena tow ball? 2.0L petrol SLX? I want to make sure its safe!

thank you

We don't have such information which I don't believe is available anywhere.

I'm not sure if that is accurate or not but based on that I think the maximum I can carry on the bar is 50kg and that must take into account the weight of the rack... it doesn't seem that heavy to me!
