Rack is stable for short trips.
Security feature is useless ... key is made of very soft metal ... broke first time I tried to lock the rack.

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
We take our bikes every where. It is easy on/easyoff. We especially like the ease of locking both the rack and bikes to the vehicle. It works well on a '12 Subaru Outback

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
I lease a Chevy Volt. This is one of the few trunk racks that fit the volt. The fit is great and stable, however, the rubber stops on the bottom leave marks on the car, not scratches, rough spots that took the shine off the car. Others suggested the marks could come off with wax and polish which I have no idea if it would. If you lease a vehicle, watch out for this.

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
Best bike rack I ever got. Very stable. No need to reduce driving speed. Having arthritis in mij hands, another design of the tightening knobs might make the mounting of the rack even easier for me.
For the rest: excellent

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
I did a lot of research to make sure I would be getting the best possible trunk rack for my BMW 3 series. Today after only 3 days of using the rack, I took it off my car and discovered two huge dimples on the bumper where the feet of the rack had been placed. My bike is very light and there was no added weight or pressure to cause this. I am really upset, I dont want to use this rack anymore and it will probably cost a lot to remove the dents. The rack was not cheap either. All in all a costly mistake.

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
Looks great, easy to use! I a 65+ full figured lady who hasn't ridden a bike in a long time but really need to exercise. I wanted to keep everything as easy as possible otherwise I tend to lose motivation. This carrier is all that! I leave it on the car & feel it's safe since it locks on. It's simple to load my bike, pull a couple of straps & I'm off. I'm a weekend rider & don't have to use a carrier to go to the W&OD Trail but manage to go somewhere with my bike every weekend. Highly recommend this product!

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
So far we have only set it up and loaded the bikes but plan to take the bikes to the trails this next week. So far, we are happy with our purchase. Shopping at REI is a great experience and the staff is very helpful - especially for sports novices like us. Thank you

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
Watch the video from Thule & it is almost as easy as shown. Well made, seems very sturdy. I only have 1 bike & it was rock solid during first drive. Have not gone very far yet. Like how the arms fold down when bike is not on the carrier. Very easy adjustment. It folds up to about the size of a big lawn chair & I store it in my trunk. Bought it on sale & think it is worth the money.

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
Really a great rack. Took a little while to figure out, but had the best manual I've ever seen. Once figured out once, works easily. Wipe down the surface before install and it won't scratch. It is heavy, but feels sturdy. Only wish the lock would work with only one bike loaded towards the trunk. Also, wish the cables locked on both sides.
Service and delivery comments:
Store was out of stock and it was backordered. Local store (Brookfield, WI) ordered it for me from a different store in NM who had it in stock. No extra change, was great service.

Comments about Thule Raceway 2 Bike Rack:
Went to the local REI store to pick up a bike rack and was recommended this baby. I love it! It's light and fits perfectly in my trunk when I don't need it. I'm no muscle woman, but it's super easy to put together and mount on your car by yourself. Definitely worth the purchase if you're looking for a small rack for a small car.
