I just LOVE this bike rack for so many reasons. It's super light. I think he weighs less than 10 pounds. So versatile. I use it on a Prius, but the gears allow you to swap them out for regular suitcases or SUV flatbacks. The upper hooks hooked and no longer adjust. They determine all other manipulations. The handlebar straps holding your bike are thick rubber, will likely stretch, but again they can be adjusted to be tighter on the road (sorry, pun). These rods hold most of the weight contrary to any of the other reviews I have read and they are strong and stable. There are SIX, count them, six straps that allow you to keep the bike as stable and steady as you want. When I buckle mine it doesn't even move when I'm driving. The belt clips are easy to use while being very reliable and durable. I had one of these (not that good quality) many years ago and I really liked it. Since then I've tried the hitch. For this reason, a trailer hitch was installed on my car. hate her! I just don't feel comfortable with my bike shaking and giggling while I'm riding. I also want it to be safe. I also want something that isn't too heavy for me (I'm over 70 and don't need to lift heavy dumbbells, although I easily lift my bike on this rack).
