Great product but will not fit in a Prius.

I like the idea of this product but unfortunately it didn't work on my 2015 Prius. I have attached it to another car and want to adapt it to my Prius. Great product and I would have been looking forward to a different car. Unfortunately had to go back.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • No Power

Bad product and experience

This design ruins most car bumpers. Despite the padding, the weight of your seat deforms the plastic. Also terrible support reaction. I would definitely look into other bike solutions before working with Seasucker again. Keep in mind that they won't cover your return shipping costs either.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

Great for quick rides around town

I only occasionally need to tow my bike somewhere and I like that this system fits in a small suitcase and can be stowed under the boot floor (we have a Subaru Foresters). It only takes a few minutes to assemble and looks very strong. I don't know if I'll use it for longer trips, but for city trips it's hard to beat in terms of lightness.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Not sure

I would not recommend it. Perhaps this rack is suitable for another.

The company told me it would fit my Mini Cooper but it didn't. The bike was inches from the sidewalk and the suction cups didn't hold up well. They slowly moved down the window. I would not recommend it. Perhaps this trunk will fit in another car. Revane was great when he came back.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Minor issues

Rode 600 miles on my little Honda CR-Z with this system. I attached the cups to the back of the hatch to avoid damaging there. I had to use ratchet straps to attach the seat to the rear bumper to keep it from bouncing. Everything was fine after that and I love my bike AND my car and this bike rack serves them both well. It's difficult to fit a bike in the trunk of this small car, especially with 29" wheels.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Slightly dented

Excellent goods. Very compact and handy.

What an amazing innovative product! Received just in time for a 200km drive. I have to admit I was a bit apprehensive about using it on such a long trip without testing it first, but I really didn't have a choice. I'm happy to say it performed fantastically throughout the ride and never once lost vacuum pressure during the 3.5 hour ride. I also used it on my Volkswagen Sharan minivan with an almost vertical rear window. What I will probably do is buy an extra suction cup/belt to secure the seat

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Easy maintainability

I liked driving when I was attached to mine.

Has been working with my turbo bike for about a year and a half. I enjoyed driving my car while hanging on my carbon MTB with these suction cups to get people's attention. It was funny watching my bike wheel spin while I was driving on the freeway. And I've found that the cars behind me don't like to stay near my car when my bike is hanging at the back with 2 suction cups and 4 ropes. I guess they got scared, which I think they should. Many people ask me about this product when I park in aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Free for training
Cons
  • Has defects

Ordered for Fiat 500 Abarth '13

It's definitely different. The quality is amazing and I love that it fits in a small suitcase. The only other option for an external bike rack for my Abarth was a hitch rack, which I didn't want to overload and cut off the bottom of my bumper. It took me a few times to align the handlebar mounts to the rear window. I ended up buying a foam seat cover to protect my car from the bike seat hitting the bumper. The pressure is great at the moment. So far I've only driven short distances. I can'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Almost never
