Not stable but does do the job

On: 2008-02-08

I have used this hitch to drive across the country but you have to tie it down really well it keep the bike from flopping around. I dont trust the tie-downs that are on the product. Very flimsy. But, its cheap and does get the job done.

Two bike hitch rack

On: 2007-08-10

If you do not want to put a lot of money into a bike rack then this is a good choice. It was well built though the frame work is thinner then the expensive ones. The fold down feature is great and easy to use. It has some side to side movement that can not be corrected by tightening the bolts. It is easy to load and straps are secure but no additional stability straps are included. Bungee cords work but you need to use padding in order not to scratach the bike. The rack did not come with assembly or installation instructions. The very odd shaped cotter pin is very difficult to put in and remove but it did not come with instructions so perhapas there is an easier way I am not aware of. If you only haul you bike occasionally for short trips this rack is a good cost saving choice.
