Strengths: Price, quality, versatilityWeaknesses: Assembly will take 30 minutesBottom Line: Simplex has been producing bike racks for over 5 years and I am the owner. The are many excellent references on our website as well an independent review by Mountain Bike Riders at http://www.mtnbikeriders.com/2007/10/30/cycle-simplex-tandem-roof-rack-review/. This review discusses the ease of assembly, thoroughness of instructions and ruggedness of construction.
However, we at CycleSimplex believe that for many people "perception is reality". With that in mind we have beefed up the size of our bolts and have made the line of racks even more versatile.
Regarding cost, we are far from expensive and if you do side-by-side comparisons to our competitors, you will find that we are often the least expensive.

Strengths: Customer service was excellent. Manufacture takes dimensions of your bike to choose parts to send.Weaknesses: Poor assembly instructions, hitch did not line up with receiver, too much sway, bolts come loose, hitch does not angle up from receiver making rack ride too low, too expensive
Bottom Line: I paid a king's ransom for a rack that has given me nothing but frustration. Bolts work loose and the rack swings around too much. I wouldn't attempt to take this rack cross country or on country roads. Systems that involve wheel wells, and ratchet locking booms are superior in design, easier to assemble, easier to load and unload, and cost less.
