Cheap. Effective. good for outdoor activities

Like all bike racks, your bikes will wobble a little and your rack/rear bumper can get scratched if you don't take the right precautions. Toe over my metal pedal on the bumper side and I used the extra length of the straps to tie the wheels in place - problem solved. To this rack's credit, my roommate and I used this rack to transport our bikes on our 3,000 mile hike. out of town, moving to Seattle.

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • Quality

Watch out for broken bracelet

I have a problem with this particular model. The only strap that attaches to the part of the trunk lid closest to the rear window is broken, frayed and torn. The spot on the strap where it broke was sort of "elastic" and weaker than the others in my opinion. Luckily for me, it broke as I pulled out of the driveway, but the entire bike and the rest of the trunk fell to the ground. This part of the product is not secure. IMO should be retired. I was able to find a replacement for the wornโ€ฆ

  • Nice packaging

so easy to use outdoors

After searching around the corner in department stores and not finding a frame compatible with my Cruze, I decided to give it a try - so glad I did! It's so easy to put on and take off and fits in the trunk very easily because it folds flat to fit my Schwinn bike - heavy and oddly shaped! I live in a city where I don't want to leave the trunk on my car all the time for fear of it being removed. So the convenience of being easy to put on and take off was great for me and a lot cheaper than anyโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • unreliable

Works great and attaches easily to car

I've been using it for a while with no problems and the top speed I've driven was just under 60mph. I was worried someone would just take the trunk off my car as the straps don't go under the trunk or anything but nothing has happened yet. You can use rubber bands to tie the bike and tires together, or I just use the extra length of the bands to tie everything together. It's probably not the "right" way, but it works for me as I don't go too far and I don't go very fast. The inner belt set isโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Some bugs

I give five stars for the price. Fits my old (1998) Camry

box. 2) You need at least two brackets to keep a) the front wheel (a) and b) the pedals from spinning. NOTE: ZERO SECURITY. Anyone could come and take all the guns from the car along with their bikes. DO NOT leave the machine out of sight. With a blade and a pickup, anything can disappear in 20 seconds, and that's no exaggeration. MAYBE the more expensive ones are better for some reason, but for this price you can't go wrong.

Pros
  • . This is great.
Cons
  • . Hard to say.

Worked fine for a while, and then the deformation started to appear.

Worked great for a while and then deformations on the frame started to appear and today it happened (see picture) driving 55 on the Autobahn. After the cushion split, the bikes slipped as it moved due to a cushion failure, then my trunk and bumper were damaged. After that, the frame was bent and shifted from the center. I didn't trust the structural integrity so I waited on the side of the road for an hour for a friend to come and collect the bikes. For a while this product worked great andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Piggy bank Price

Phenomenal! Outdoor Camping

This product is fantastic! I was concerned that this work stand would not be reliable or efficient given the price. I was wrong! This shelf is very easy to install and works great! It is compatible with almost all existing cars. I drive a 2012 Ford Focus, which is quite a small car and my biggest concern was that it wouldn't be able to support the weight of two motorcycles. It worked like a charm! I drove from Ft. Wayne, all the way to Boston, to Boston and back (over 2000 miles) on this bikeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Read only if you wish to

This stand really gets the job done. If you don't want to spend a lot of money then get this. To be honest you can't really trust the bad reviews for this product because they just treat this product to the maximum. broken belt, right? Or bikes fall, right? 1: To even break the straps, pull them too hard, causing the straps to break. 2: bike waste, wrong installation. Just use common sense when installing this product and bikes. If you have common sense, this product will work for you. For aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • New competitors are here

DO NOT BUY THIS RACK

Do yourself a favor and don't buy this rack. Yes, it's easy to assemble and install on a car, but it's generally unstable. I recently bought it and use it to transport my bike on the various bike lanes around the city. I am always very careful when riding this rack as the hooks simply slot into the top of the rack and are not reinforced in any way. The bike rack was fine most of the time, but at one point I had to drive through small speed bumps in the parking lot. Although I crossed them veryโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • No result
