The Thule Backup box is normally used with the EasyBase rack although I have seen it used with bike rack although I can't recall which model. I did a lot of research rear storage boxes for use on my camper van including the Westfalia, but it has very small capacity. My main requirement was for the box to tilt so I could get into the back of the van.

As I'm always up for a challenge, I bought an Atera Strada DL3 bike rack and then modified it to take the Thule box. It's easy to turn it back into a bike rack if needed.
