Terrible for long rides

This may be fine if you only need to transport your bike around town, but if you ride very far it won't hold up well. The metal brackets attached to the trunk easily slide and release it. It can't handle 3 bikes! it was horrible at 2! The bikes bounced because they were only top mounted and ended up denting and scratching my trunk! When we got home the returns window was closed so I was stuck with a worthless bike rack that I would never give to a friend and probably not even an enemy! My 2…

Cross Country Certified

Just got back from a 2600 mile trip to South Korea and back (actually 2642 miles). This thing was a cheaper and faster alternative to the hitch on my 2011 Toyota Sienna. It worked so well, no problems. I attached it to the back of the van in under two minutes and we had two large bikes on it. An added bonus, it's very quick and easy to remove. I can't recommend this product enough - it's durable, easy to use and left no marks on my machine. Both bikes are *still* in perfect condition. I agree…

Pros
  • One year probation
Cons
  • Can't remember

Suitable for short distances, uncomfortable for long journeys

Bought to carry 3 adult bikes (2 female, 1 male) but not sure I can fit all 3. I have placed two adult bikes but it would be difficult to place a third. It wasn't difficult to install and I've removed and installed it a few times on my Honda Civic. Holds securely enough but the movement is still there. I've only done local trips with it. I'm not sure if it will be comfortable for me to travel long distances. On the Civic, two straps run at the top and the other two under the trunk lid. Tighten…

Pros
  • Doping 🔥
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Pretty durable and useful.

Bike carrier for three bikes is not very heavy. It came assembled and easily attached to the trunk of my car (Nissan Tiida 2008). At first I thought maybe it wasn't strong enough and the bike would shake at the back, but I was wrong. All you need is to fasten the straps very tightly and that's it! Tips: - Use a piece of padding, fabric or other soft material in each hook that attaches to your car. The instructions state that the hooks can damage the car's paintwork. So I decided to avoid that…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Electrical socket required

Hey girls, nice attitude. I want to put my bike on it.

I've had this unit for a few minutes and have moved a variety of bikes from large mountain bikes that weigh a quarter ton to smaller road bikes that weigh next to nothing. he is doing well. BUT note that sunlight can and will degrade the plastic (in this case the acrylic cords tying the damn thing to your car) due to magic UV light + heat, so ALWAYS remove it from your car and stockpile it ahead protected from sunlight. when not in use to keep the cable intact and protect those behind you. You…

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Expensive

TO UPDATE! Amazing customer service

UPDATE! While we were not happy with the original rack we received, we were incredibly impressed with Allen's customer service. They asked for some photos which we provided. Judging by the photo, they sent a new frame. We noticed a difference in the new stance and Allen confirmed it was a newer model. So we increased the star rating because of the excellent CS. We'll be testing the new rack shortly and making one final performance update. Initial Rating *** We have determined that this product…

Pros
  • Alright!
Cons
  • Low maintainability
