Easy to mount and sturdy January 31, 2010
Cali girl (Orange County)
I'm very pleased with my purchase. It comes fully assembled in the box so no hassle trying to figure out instructions to put it together. It opens and folds flat for easy storage. I keep mine in the trunk and it doesn't take up much space. It takes about 10 minutes to put it on the car with bikes attached (that is after I figured it out the first time). The bikes remained secured in place the whole trip. The only drawback to this product is that it is not meant for childrens bikes. Bikes with shorter crossbars (or thicker crossbars) to do not fit in the clamps. I had to put the smallest bike in the trunk, attach the rack, put on the adult bike first, and then the junior bike fit only on one side and I tied it with the straps on the other side. This is the only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars. Overall an excellent product.
Nice Rack December 13, 2009
Mark (Elk Grove, CA)
This is the first car bike rack I've ever purchased. I've used it once on a multi-day outing where I had to rack and unrack our two bikes several times. The rack is easy to mount and easy to make very secure and tight. The materials appear to be of high quality. We bought the three-bike mount just in case and I'm glad we did. Understandably, the company cannot custom make the racks for every combination of bikes. I would really have to cram the bikes together to get three on there and it would be a problem with pedals getting into spokes. You really have to figure out how to fit the bikes on the rack as "girls'" bikes do not have a top tube. Once you get it down for your bikes, then you simply repeat the process. The directions that came with the rack are sub par in my opinion. The pictures are small and not clear. They could easily be improved and should be. A tip, once you mount the rack and adjust it where you want it, mark the knob splines (both halves) so you can set and tighten them before you mount the rack in the future so you don't have to keep finding just the right place. Also note that the rack does not have any locking mechanism for the bikes. I used additional straps to tie off wheels so they wouldn't rotate (steer left and right) and bang into things. And, keep in mind that you won't want to open and close the trunk while the bikes are mounted so plan ahead. Overall I am well pleased with the product and it serves our purposes well.
Not great but works. November 30, 2009

It's an OK bike rack. It works fine on a 97 Altima and just barely on a 2007 CRV. Bikes won't fall off but they do swing a bit and can scratch the car with pedals or scratch themselves if there are multiple bikes on the rack. For the price it is fine for my needs - 5 mile ride to the trails once a week. In terms of convenience, this does not come close to a roof rack and some other trunk racks are probably better.
great rack November 25, 2009

This rack works well.
I haven't tried to put 3 bikes on it, but I doubt it will hold them all.
It holds 2 bikes well.
I've had this for months now, and I saw another car with a roof mounted bike system. From what I saw, it seems to be the absolute best way to carry bikes. I saw a medium sized sedan carry 4 fully assemble bikes on the roof. I fell in love with that system and looked it up online, only to see that that type of system would cost over 250 dollars!!!
I don't regret buying this rack, but if you have the $$$ buy a roof rack!
Last Note: I've scratched my car up with the bikes with this rack. Load the bikes carefully!!!!
 I love it! November 24, 2009
Pandoras Box (Cleveland, OH)
This is a great bike rack for a great price. It serves it purpose but I can only fit 2 bikes on it. It is easy to install and uninstall. I was looking for a rack that wouldn't leave a mark on my car because I have a lease, and I read the reviews and thought this one seemed the best, and I was right. I research every product I buy and I am glad I found this one. I am very satisfied and highly recommend this one!
