Anyone got a recommendation for cheap roof mounted bike carriers?

I've posted this in the Family and Kids forum as I wanted to bike carriers for the lo's bikes to go on my roof bars. I've already got a decent Thule one for my bike, I infrequently need to cart children's bikes around too.

Are the cheap ones on the 'bay worth a look? They come in at £20 or so each; I don't need a lock, they're for bikes in a tatty condition anyway - what I don't want is to lose any bikes off the top.

Any recommendations?

Ta!

    The Thule 531/532 are good, but not cheap. the main factor is adaptability, they adjusted to fit every different sized child or adult bike I put on them. Lots of bike carriers don't have that level of convenience and putting a mix of adult and child bikes on some racks is a comlplete "daddy said a naughty word" type nightmare.
