I bought this almost a year ago and put it on the back of my truck camper for a year long road trip. We attached it to a bomb proof hitch extension on a Ford F-350, and I bought this rack specifically because it has very few moving parts that can break and is rated for the bouncing that you’ll get on the back of an SUV. We carried 4 bikes on it for the year and from the outset I disliked the rack. Getting four bikes on their is a bit of a spatial puzzle and I ended up having to buy two of Yakima’s accessory bars (not cheap) to make the smaller bikes fit. Over the year the bikes have taken a lot of wear and tear just from rubbing on one another. The rack’s arms have also gradually sagged and bent over the year and are definitely no longer horizontal. I’ve been a bit concerned that the arms would completely collapse downward but it hasn’t happened. Finally there’s the inconvenience that’s natural with this type of rack - invariably the bike you need off is the one that’s furthest in... yup time to take them all off for one bike. Was it inexpensive? Yes. Did it survive the year? Barely. Would I purchase again? Nope.
Good solid rack with easy locking strap to stop the casual thief. Locks to the hitch without any wiggle in it. Rides very stable and the latches seem to work well. Feel safe with this even on the back of my camper.
Works well; needs attachments for female bikes. We had to purchase those separately.
I wanted a light weight rack. REI has this rack listed at just over 15 pounds. I seemed to weigh much more than that when I picked it up so I put it on a scale and it comes in at around 35 pounds. Sturdy rack if weight isn't an issue.
