Favorite Trail:
where wheels roll
Duration Product Used:
Less than 1 month
Price Paid:
$130.00
Purchased At:
online
Strengths:
4 bikes with very different frames all fit with a bit of planning. Low price. Solid. I didn't feel like I needed to watch my bikes the whole drive. Access to the trunk when fully loaded with bikes. No scratches on the trunk lid.
Weaknesses:
I needed to grind a sloppy weld down so that the rack would slide far enough into the hitch. A few minor surface imperfections. The bolt down mechanism is solid but having to use a wrench is a bit archaic. The need for a $300 hitch, but I'll likely use it to pull a trailer too.
