Price Paid:

Purchased At:
Lombardi
Strengths:
Ease of bike loading / unloading - no front wheel removal. Sleek design when not in use - the wife does not hate the way it makes her car look. Ease of removal from the roof racks. Rack mounting clamps fit factory roof rack - do not need a Thule Base Rack.
Weaknesses:
The front wheel shimmies left to right when doing greater than 35 mph.
Bottom Line:
This is a nice rack for ease of use. But, the front wheel shimmies right to left on the highway. It is very disheartening and leaves me worried that the bike will fly off. I cannot go 80mph as the wheel shimmy is to extreme. Maybe this is a road bike rack. I use it exclusively for mountain wheels.
