If your definition of pumping iron doesn't extend to the 'clean-and-jerk-the-bike-onto-car' move, invest in the Yakima Hold up Bike Rack for fast, easy, low-effort loading of one or two bicycles. The Hold Up comes with the LockUp to secure the bikes to your rack when you hit the diner to fuel up on hash browns and bacon before a day on the trails. Yakima thoughtfully included an integrated bottle opener so you can pop a cold one after the ride.

Strengths: Solid construction, Easy set up, Very quick to load and unload bikes.
Weaknesses: Heavy (49lbs)
Bottom Line:
Once you have your bikes loaded, they do not move. No more bike to bike contact. The only thing I have to do is lower the seats on the bikes so the handle bars don't hit. I also have the hold up plus 2 (which I will review as well). This rack makes easy work of any bike frame or size.
