Misleading story about discount
No, I do not recommend this product
After visiting your San Francisco store, we signed up for an REI membership and paid the membership fee because we were told we would receive a 10% discount on a bike rack. Only when purchasing the rack did we discover that the advertised benefit was a 10% reward available sometime in 2027—not an immediate discount. As temporary visitors to the United States, a future reward is of no use to us, as we will no longer be in the country. A future reward and an immediate discount are two very different things. This should have been clearly explained before we paid for membership. We immediately returned the rack and received a refund for it. The experience left us feeling misled and thoroughly disappointed. We will not shop at REI again.

Love the Swing arm
Goes together easy. Holds up well, took two heavy e bikes on some bad highway in AZ, barely flinched. Swing arm works wonderfully, you can load the one side with it swung open and the other side when closed. Swing arm definitely comes in handy when emptying the back of the Sprinter van as well. Spend the extra money on the swing arm it's worth the convenience. Only negative is the locking cable system is pretty cheapish but not worth complaining.

Defender Bike Rack
Yes , I recommend this product
Great product. Works with a Defender that has a tire on the back of it. Highly recommended for this vehicle due to the fact that it has a swing arm, so you can open the rear hatch and access your bags easily without having the bike rack impede your rear cargo area.
