from Aventura, Florida Date Reviewed: December 10, 2011 Strengths: Great to use on an SUV; allows easy access to bikes and trunk without unloading bikes. Great quality components. Have not tested others as have not had the need. Need adapters (Saris has great ones) to set up non conventional frame bikes (many MB). So far I consider it a great buy!!!! Weaknesses: Detachable arms, should be foldable. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Markham Park Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $275.00 Purchased At: Don't remember

from Seattle Date Reviewed: May 15, 2011 Strengths: Easy access to the back of my SUV. Can tilt down for access with the bikes loaded. Bike hangers with associated parts can be removed to prevent parts theft, and to keep cleaner between rides. Weaknesses: It's relatively heavy. Rubber straps are very stiff, and have failed. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Where I am at the moment Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $350.00 Purchased At: I don't remember Similar Products Used: Yakima Bike Setup: Specialized Stumpjumper Comp, Lemond Tour, Rockhopper

from Oxford, MS, USA Date Reviewed: June 27, 2009 Strengths: Keeps bikes parallel to the ground when getting things out of the hatch-back, without removing bikes from rack. It would be pretty effective at minimizing rear-end damage to your car if you were hit from behind. Weaknesses: If you have a non-typical frame design (like many mt. bike frames), you have to buy and use a frame adapter, which will most likely make one or both of your bike wheels drag when you go over bumps. The plastic that surrounds the pins where the arms go into the top of the rack both cracked and broke off within six months of use (and I didn't abuse it and make this happen). The cradles that "cup" the seat tube to keep the bike from swinging in the breeze while the car is moving rub paint off of the seat tube. Straps that secure bikes to the arms of the rack seem to prematurely wear and break. Fairly heavy.
