Fiamma 360 Back Box Fitted

Wanting a little more storage room for all our gear whilst on our European Road Trip I decided to get a back box to fit on the Fiamma bike rack on the back of the Campervan.

As the Fiamma ones are quite expensive (over £400) I looked on eBay and found a 360 litre one just up the road in Northampton that I managed to get for just £200, and today we fitted it on and filled it up.

The fixing kit that came with it didn't seem to be the best solution so I opted to drill a couple of extra holes and use 8 cable ties to fix it to our Fiamma bike rack.

Initial impressions are great, it fits and holds a treat, although the proof is in the driving. I've packed extra cable ties should we have any breakages, although I believe it's going to hold well as the weight is resting down on the bike rack, the cable ties just stop it sliding off.

We've currently put all the contents from under one of the seats in it, a portable table with 2 benches and 5 deck chairs, although there it looks like there still plenty of room for the buggy and a few more bits.
