Poor Design
While meant for 4 bikes, because of the design, it took me over 20 minutes to secure all 4 bikes. There are multiple reasons for this, some good, some bad. There isn't much space between each bike. The is a good thing if you want to minimize the outward distance from the car. I had trouble mounting the two bikes on the interior positions. The vertical mounting bars (containing the straps that secure the frame) can be a hinderance to sitting the bikes on the wheel cradles and if the bikes aren't positioned correctly, the cranks will hit the bars. As such, trying to position the pedals becomes a challenge because they are too close to the neighboring bike. Additionally, for my larger bikes (road bikes with frame sizes +55cm) the bars with the frame straps weren't tall enough to reach. This meant I had to secure the straps around water bottle cages. Each bike is secured by three straps (two wheel and one frame). Positioning the straps for the frames was really hard because there are only two lateral positions for the frame straps (think of a flip flop rotation for the straps). This requires you to find a position for each bike that considers the cranks, relative to the vertical middle bars, and the positioning of the frame strap. That makes it difficult to find a configuration that works for each bike and also depends on the shape and size of the neighboring bike.
