"Drove 1200 miles with 3 bikes. Prior to leaving adjusted the angle of the top bracket for the angle of each bike top tube which made the tires even with the ground. Alternated each bike direction. All adjustments are easy to make and change. Very sturdy, easy to lean down so that hatch could be opened. Would prefer that all 3 knobs lock instead of just the front one. Also purchased the hitch stabalizer and locking pin."

Jury's still out

"Briefly installed it and put a bike on . "Sturdy" rack, though being a tilt down - there's extra movement left to right. I'm awaiting a hitch stabilizer I ordered, and I plan to combine that with perhaps some stickum felt/foam to tighten up the gap where the main carrier drops down into the bracket device. Got the 4 bike carrier - I didn't try yet - but likely a challenge to get 4 bikes on there."

Good Quality Product

"This bike rack is very study and well made, I would say overall that it is good quality at a fair price. I only have two minor issues. The clamps to hold the bikes work ok, but they take a lot of twisting to get them tight enough. My other complaint is that I don't feel that it fits my vehicle very well. There are only two holes for the hitch pin. Using the first hole, the mount doesn't go far into the hitch, and seems a bit loose, although I'm sure it will hold ok. It won't slide into my hitch far enough to use the second hole, just misses by a about 1/8th inch. Too bad, I think the second one would work better. I may try modifiing it with either a third hole in between the first two, or by trimming off part of the end of the mount."

"i like the design and features. the only thing i would do different is make all the handles locking (just to keep someone from removing or vibrating off on a long trip when not all saddles are in use"
