Description

Save your bikes from becoming a tangled pile in the rear cargo area or from a low-clearance collision while riding on your roof. Instead, treat your cycles to the advanced bike-carrying features of Allen Bike Racks Deluxe Hitch Bike Carrier.

This hitch-mounted Allen Bike Rack treats your bicycles to the comfort of patented Allen cradles which are safe on paint and employ a secure top tie-down strap. When the rack is empty, you can fold the 16” carrying arms flat with a push of Allen’s exclusive single-pin mechanism. And, Allen includes a separate tie strap for stopping your cycles from swaying in transit.

The Allen Deluxe Hitch Bike Rack requires only minor assembly out of the box, and mounts in mere minutes. The included no-wobble hitch bolt halts any wiggling inside the receiver—a problem that plagues lesser racks. And, Allen arms your Deluxe Hitch Bike Carrier with something else the others don’t have: a Lifetime Guarantee.

"The no wobble bolt is no a no wobble at all. We have a 1 1/4 hitch and even after installing the bolt it still moves from side to side. We need to use bungee cords to keep it from moving."

"I wanted a high quality yet affordable hitch mounted bike rack. I had seen this rack on the site where I bought my bikes for $50 more. I had priced racks in a shop for $100-$150 more. This rack looks good,it is easy to operate, and the feature that allows the rack to tilt away from the trunk is very important. I plan to travel with my bikes so I will not have to take the rack off to get to my luggage.I highly recommend this product and AUTOANYTHING."

"This bike is great. Fit my receiver just fine. After installing the no-wobble bolt the rack does move up and down but very slightly and need to apply lots of pressure. Not sure if by design or maybe I did something wrong, but i'm ok with it. Had to buy my own cable to make sure no one tries to steal it. Beast feature is the ability to fold the rack down and away from the vehicle to get access to the back of vehicle, even with bikes mounted. You do have to hold on and slowly let it down but it's harder to bring it back up ;)"

"It is solidy bult. The only plastic pieces are the spacers between the bike clamps and the bike clamps themselves. We had a bit of trouble with the really small bikes for 6 hear olds, but with only a little imigination they went on. You have to have wrenches of two different sizes to put the rack together, but it only took about 5 minutes once the wrenches were in hand. It does not have a built in security cable - you have to provide your own."

"The Allen bike rack is easy to use and works great. Just wish it had 2 straps to strap the bikes together instead of just one."

"Very pleased with this item. It would be better if the hole for the hitch insert was big enough to accept my regular hitch pin for the class 2 hitch I have, but I was able to drill it out and make it fit."

"The Carrier is sturdy. And was very easy to install. A very good feature is how simple the rack folds down and out of your way when NOT carrying bikes. The only negative aspect of this carrier was the way I received it. The box was destroyed and taped all over to cover up where the factory staples were removed. There's a scratch on the frame and the allen decal was rubbed off. But over time my bikes would probably do the same. The packaging should have been better. John "

"Overall great product. It works great for lady's bikes w/o the adaptor. (read the instructions) I do want to touch on the "no-wobble" bolt. If you have drilled this out to make it fit the normal hitch pen, you have voided your lifetime warranty. I use the bolt, and attach a cable look so no thieves can take it. Ok, the bad part; the shipping company that shipped this product left it on my door step leaned up against the storm door. When I got out of the shower, I couldn’t even open the door. When I picked up the product, the packaging was wet and everything fell out of the box. I had to pick it up piece by piece."
