Love it!-- Simple, yet secure too | |
| Rating: |  |
| This rack was perfect for my application. 80% of the time, I carry my MTBike. The other 20% I wanted to be able to carry my Fiance's MTBike too. The new latch system, (new on this year's models), makes the swing down pivot so easy to use. I also like to be able to take it off if I have too. I recently got some work done inside the rear hatch of my Xterra, and before taking in to my shop, I simpley unbolted the single bolt and slid out the whole unit from the hitch. -Easy, simple means $$ Worth spent to me. | |

Perfect Rack! | |
| Rating: | |
| Best bike rack (2 or 4 bike version). Simple, efficient, and heavy-duty. I recommend getting the add-on locking bolt (steep at $39). I would also recommend getting the anti-swing brackets if you plan on transporting your bike longer distances. Keeps bikes from swaying forward and backward on the rack from wind, etc. I love this rack. One of the cleanest designs and works perfect on my Landcruiser. I can still open the back hatch with the rack on the car. | |

Great Rack! | |

| I bought this product as a way to carry my mountain bikes via a hitch so that I wouldn't have to place a rack on my car. This saves my paint job because it doesn't touch the car anywhere and also has an adaptor included allowing me to use different size hitches such as the ones on my friend's SUV's. | |

perfect for a cycling mommy | |
| Rating: | |
| As a single mommy who needs to install, handle and carry everything herself and with a baby in a stroller at her side all the time this is perfect. Installation is easy, still easy access to the trunk to put the stroller in and out or run errands, easy to mount the bike on it, no heavy lifting needed. | |

Bikes too close together | |
| Rating: |  |
| It is easy to use and seems quite durable but when we put our bikes on it my wife was concerned that they would scratch each other because sat too close together. Also the getting anti-swing brackets increased the price by another [$]. We have decided that we are going to return it and get similar 4 bike model that includes the anti-swing feature. The overall cost will remain about the same. I actually think the models where the bike sit in wheel hoops might be the best for our needs. | |
