Efficient Hitch Mount Platform 2-Bike Rack: MAXXHAUL 50027 for Easy Bike Transport Review

I was concerned about the price and the fact that it didn't have any reviews but let me tell you it was very easy to put together with no tools required and it fits the back of my Wrangler Jeep with a spare tire .

When the box arrived I have to admit I was shocked at how small it was, but when I opened the box I found a dozen individually labeled pieces which I quickly identified from the photo on the front page of the instructions composed . I really like that it can be assembled and disassembled without any tools. Installing the rack on the back of my truck and mounting the bike only took a minute and seems even more secure than my roof rack. With the added benefit of not having to try to lug the bike…

The product arrived on time and in good condition. We have had several bike racks over the years. All of them are of the type that hang the bike on the crossbar. We only have two to carry a male frame and a female frame. Women's bikes have always been a problem because of the extra crossbar to hang or tilt. No longer. We LOVE this shelf. Set up in 15 minutes without tools. It fits our 2" receiver perfectly and is quite stable. But when I used the clip they provided it was solid. The bikes load…

Bad attempt at mounting for bikes. The idea is to keep your bikes from bouncing around so you don't damage them. This thing has horrendous play after assembly, everything will bounce as you move on the street. The hitch attachment plate that pulls the trunk's main body together works well, but everything else attached to the main body is loose. Each individual part "secured" with the pins provided has 1/8" to 1/4" play, which doesn't seem like much but creates an inch of play at the other end…

This is a very strong platform bike rack (usually wheels attached, not frame). With quick release pins, it can be disassembled to a more compact size very quickly. Adding a stabilizer bar to your hitch receiver is an added bonus and creates a very stable platform. The hook mount that keeps the frame stable has a nice foam edge to protect the frame. The instructions say you can use a soft cloth for extra protection if needed. The wheel straps are nice, thick, flexible rubber that should last a…

I always read reviews. But know when I do it. I take 5 STARS like mine. You must own the company or own stock. And those who are good at 1 STAR can't even look at the pictures and make sure it's EASY! Period. Have I seen TOO MANY PARTS? Married couple. lol. Repackaged and sent back? You returned a bike rack with very few parts. No screw or washer to assemble! Guess rubber tire straps would be a BIT like attaching rubber straps to a steel bar? Someone mentions the instructions were terrible. I…

I was hoping this would be one of those low price and high quality items. Unfortunately, the product itself is also cheap. After assembly. EVERYTHING shakes. Wheel mounts are not designed for mountain bikes with wide tires. I have 2.8" tires and they don't fit. I had to wet the tires and then block them. I could only imagine that the frame would bend over time. The method of tightening bikes is not very good. The handle for tightening the top "hook" is in a hard-to-reach place when the bike is…

You can tell by the weight of the box that this stretcher is a large piece of metal. Assembling this carrier is easy. Don't be fooled by messages that say "too many pieces" or too confusing. Without pictures or instructions, the average person could figure this out in 20 minutes, and it comes with pictures and instructions. You will definitely want to use a tow hitch (see pictures). Holds the holder firmly in the receiver and as an added plus it is an anti-theft device as someone will need a…

I used a home made luggage rack for 20 years but at this the front bicycle tire had to be removed, which has become routine. So I looked at the many racks that don't require tire removal, from $ to $$$$. The expensive frames were WAY over my bag range so I focused on the inexpensive frames and decided to give this one a try and I'm quite happy with it. Of course it's not perfect, but with a few modifications it suits my needs very well. *PROS: - Great value for money - Easy to…

I was hoping that this would be one of those products at a low price and excellent quality. Unfortunately, the product itself is also cheap. After assembly. EVERYTHING shakes. Wheel mounts are not designed for mountain bikes with wide tires. I have 2.8" tires and they don't fit. I had to wet the tires and then block them.

You can tell by the weight of the box that this carrier came as a set as it is a solid piece of metal. Assembling this carrier is easy. Don't be fooled by messages that say "too many pieces" or too confusing. Without pictures or instructions, the average person could figure this out in 20 minutes, and it comes with pictures and instructions. You will definitely want to use a tow hitch (see pictures).

Media could not be loaded. I'm just giving a review with no BS. The materials are a solid thick metal tube but overall the thing is very wobbly due to the mount, the large tolerances from the pin holes, the actual size of the pin not matching the holes exactly, the fact that they are pins. no screws to tighten. Not sure why the review says there is too much detail. It's literally just 4 bars, pins to attach the bars and to attach the wheel. If there are too many pieces it's just laziness…
