>> Great Bike Rack for unusual bike frames
This bike rack is great for bikes of all sizes and shapes We have many bikes in our household and several of them are mountain bikes with unusually thick frames These bikes would not work on the usual bike racks even with the modifier poles extending from the handle bar post to the seat post
This is a very sturdy rack and is easy to configure is many different ways It may take a few times to find the best configuration for your bikes but once you get the hang of it this is a great rack I have had to be creative with my 3 year old s bike and make sure the hook came over the seat because the frame is too low for the hook to secure it Although this rack is easy to put on and take off it is a heavy and bulky to store so I end up leaving it on my van even when I may not need it for a few days
I also feel this is a safe rack in case of an accident because the arm of this rack is so low that even with bikes on the rack it is unlikely a rear end collision will result in the rack or bike handle bars coming through the rear window of the car This happened to an acquaintance who had a hanging style rack
Overall I love this rack
>> NICE RACK
I BOUGHT THIS RACK FROM A MOM AND POP STORE IN MY HOME TOWN I WAS RIPPED OFF AND SHOULD HAVE CHECKED IT OUT ON LINE 307 IS A FAIR PRICE AS I PAID 350
I LOVE THE RACK IT IS A PAIN TO LOAD ALL OUR BIKES THE 1ST FEW TIMES BUT ONCE YOU LEARN WHERE EVERYTHING FITS IT GETS EASIER THE RACK COMES WITH A KEY LOCKING CABLE THAT ALSO FITS THE HITCH I STRUGGLED WITH TIE DOWNS WHEELS TURNING AND HANDLEBARS SHIFTING ON THE RACK THAT HANGS OFF THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE THIS ONE IS MUCH MORE SECURE NOTHING MOVES
THE ONLY REASON I AM ONLINE IS TO GET REPLACEMENT PARTS THAT MY LAB PUPS REMOVED FROM THE UNIT WHEN NOT IN USE STORAGE MAY BE AN ISSUE FOR SOME FOLKS IT IS BULKY AND ABOUT 80 s I WOULD NOT WANT TO HAUL THE FAMILY BIKES ANY OTHER WAY
>> Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4 bike ROCKS
Looked at several racks before finding the perfect one We haul 4 hybrid bikes around None have the traditional cross bar The Hollywood Sport Rider supports the bikes by the tires/wheels It weighs a bit but if you fold it up it balances nicely and can be put into the receiver easily Also it has a device to tighten it up once in the receiver so it and the bikes do not wobble AT ALL as you cruise down the bumpy side roads As with most anything in life you get what you pay for with this awesome rack Hope this helps
