Tested motorhome equipment from X-CAMPING
Travelling with a motorhome offers an incomparable feeling of freedom and flexibility. However, to make your journey as comfortable and safe as possible, there are a few essential items of equipment that should not be missing on board.
Due to numerous requests and the increasing popularity of RVs, we have compiled a list of the five most important products that every motorhome traveller should consider. All of these products are available from various online retailers, including X-CAMPING.
1. Towbar for motorhome – flexibility
Whether you own a campervan, an A-class or C-class, a towbar is an essential accessory. It not only offers the option of towing a trailer, but also serves as the basis for many other products that make travelling more comfortable and safer.
For example, bicycle or motorbike carriers can be fitted to give you flexibility when travelling around town. You can also attach supports and jacks to stabilise the motorhome on uneven terrain. At X-CAMPING, you will find a large selection of towbars that are suitable for different vehicle types.
2. Bicycle carrier or bike rack
If you are travelling with a motorhome, you want to actively explore the surroundings – be it by cycling, hiking or other outdoor activities. To transport your equipment safely, we recommend a bicycle, motorbike or load carrier that is mounted outside RV’s living area, for example on the roof, on the rear wall or on the trailer coupling. X-CAMPING offers models from renowned manufacturers such as Menabo, Fabbri, TowCar and Westfalia. The Ventus bike rack and various motorbike racks and rear boxes are particularly popular.
3. Air suspension for more comfort in Your motorhome
The weight of a motorhome is often a challenge. Even if you only pack the bare essentials, the vehicle can quickly reach its limits. Additional air suspension is the perfect solution here to stabilise the vehicle and improve driving comfort – especially on long journeys and uneven roads. At X-CAMPING you will find various systems, including the dual-circuit system with compressor, which was specially developed for the Fiat Ducato type X250, X290 from model year 2006. These systems help to optimise weight distribution and offer additional comfort.
4. Lifting supports for levelling the motorhome
A quiet and stable sleeping area is essential for a relaxing camping holiday. Levelling jacks are ideal for levelling the motorhome even on rough terrain. There are various models, from simple levelling jacks wedges starting at 25 euros to fully automatic jack stands costing over 2000 euros. These systems help to level the vehicle quickly and easily, ensuring a comfortable travelling experience no matter what surface you are parking on.
5. Swivelling module for bicycle racks or drainage rollers
A motorhome is more than just a vehicle – it is your mobile home when travelling. To maximise the comfort and functionality of your vehicle, it’s worth investing in the right accessories. Two particularly useful add-ons, which are very beneficial depending on the type of motorhome, are swivelling modules for bike racks and drainage rollers.
Swivelling module for bike carriers: Flexibility for campervans
Campervans, especially those with tailgates or rear doors, often have the problem that a mounted bike rack makes access to the vehicle difficult. A swivelling module for the bike carrier is the ideal solution: it enables the entire carrier to be swivelled away easily, allowing the rear door to be opened without any problems. This keeps your bikes securely fastened and you don’t have to remove them every time you want to access your luggage in the rear.
This system is particularly practical for travellers who often take spontaneous breaks and need quick access to their equipment. At X-CAMPING, you will find swivelling modules that are compatible with standard bike carrier systems. This means you can easily adapt the carrier to the specific requirements of your motorhome.
Skid wheels: Protection for motorhomes
A-Class and C-Class motorhomers usually have less ground clearance than campervans, which increases the risk of damage to the underbody on steep driveways, kerbs or uneven terrain. Skid wheels fitted to the rear end of the vehicle offer an effective protective measure here.
The wheels take on the task of gently guiding the vehicle over obstacles without damaging the underbody. This is particularly helpful for heavily loaded motorhomes or vehicles with a long overhang. Investing in high-quality skid wheels can therefore prevent expensive repairs and significantly extend the service life of your vehicle. At X-CAMPING you will find various models that are designed for different vehicle types and ground clearances.
