Secure bike rack ideal for outdoor activities

Well built. There are a few offerings that cost a little less money, but this one doesn't have a 45-mile warning. What I also like is that only a small amount of overall height is added as the bar attached to the drawbar has only moderate travel, the other posts have a much higher upward angle resulting in additional height for lifting bikes.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • So-so

It does its job in outdoor activities

I didn't want to spend too much money on a bike rack and this seemed like the lowest price ever for top reviews. It appears to be well made and attaches securely to my 2" Tacoma receiver bike rack. The adjustable platform fits snugly enough to the wheels that there is no side-to-side movement. There are no locking mechanisms, but that's at this price point to be expected, besides, if someone needs your bike, they'll take it anyway.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Compatibility

Issue with extra features

The clutch itself seems good, although the instructions leave something to be desired. Just one thing: DO NOT BUY the extra padlock that Revain comes with in the box. #1 does not fit this point. - Band is too big. #2 The lock itself is not worth it. We did it in 20 seconds and the worst - the lock is irrevocable which was NOT specified when ordering. So now I'm stuck with a completely useless lock. Only gave $15 but was still upset and very disappointed with the refund policy.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Some bugs

No claims from me.

This stand is a little wobbly but overall solid and reliable. I have trouble swapping out my own wipers and had no trouble assembling them. This took about half an hour. The directions were helpful and easy to follow. I fitted this on a Jeep Wrangler with a full size replacement on the rear. I don't think two bikes will fit (edit: they will fit). There just doesn't seem to be enough space (edit: there is). You might be able to work around this since the main horizontal bar will flip up (editโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Free for educational institutions
Cons
  • Very expensive

1 change required to improve performance

Good. A great bike rack for the money. BUT. the instructions were a bit vague. I put it back together and after a week I realized it wasn't and I put it back together and everything was fine. But there was a bit of "rocking" back and forth, like riding a bike in a luggage rack. I examined it and found that the problem was in the pin system that you screw into the hole in the receiver. I unscrewed it, drilled a threaded hole in the holder and bought a clutch pin from Walmart for $2.75. Putโ€ฆ

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Crazy value for money

This rack is good value for money, obviously it's a cheap rack but it's solid and reliable. I rode it 120 miles on my bike and cut it. Country roads and my bike has never fallen or even moved. My only complaint is that the arm that holds your bike's frame is a little hard to get up and down, but for the price it's a 10/10 The bike is harder to get up and down, I ride a few times a week and have it in my car all the time, but for a cheap temporary bike rack or one that isn't used every day thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands free operation
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Great Towbar Bike Rack

We've been looking at many towbar bike racks for months and stumbled across this new offering about a week ago with no review. I was hesitant at first because it's new to Revain but decided to buy anyway as Revain offers a good returns policy and the seller has other bike rack products that have near perfect vision. I'm glad I did. I am very happy with the purchase, overall great price, great quality, works great and is stable on the road. It also comes with a hitch adapter so it will work with

Pros
  • High support and durability scores from testers
Cons
  • Some issues
