Allen Deluxe 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver)

I am a college student who parks in a garage on campus and rides my bike from there to my classes and work. This rack is ideal for me as it has served a perfectly convenient and functional rack on my Jeep. It folds easily, makes very little noise if secured while driving, and still hasn't began to rust even after 6 months of periodic use. I STRONGLY recommend buying the Allen hitch lock kit for this as people really do like to steal these, at least in my area. Back to the rack though, I use it almost everyday, it is never removed from my vehicle, rain, snow, or shine and it is still holding up great. The only complaint that I have is that one of the securing straps broke about 3 weeks into use. Allen has a lifetime warranty on such things, but I have yet to call and get it replaced. I would recommend this product to anyone in the market for a bike rack as the best bang for your buck.

This is a well constructed product generally. The bike restraints should be rubber instead of nylon but they will basically do the job. The nylon restrains that come with the frame do not competently keep bikes apart. You can, however, use Thule one's as they fit. Best for two bikes ... three or more require removal of seats and turning of HBars.

I purchased this to take my family's 4 bikes on vacation. While on vacation, 500 miles from home, 4 out of the 8 tie down straps tore. After the 2nd strap tore I started to look for a reason. The straps are fasten to the rack with a staple, yes I did say a single staple! Needless to say I was very careful not to "over tighten" the bikes again, but it didn't work I lost 2 more. Luckily the 4 straps that broke were all on different bikes. Glad I took extra straps along...

I've owned this product for about 1 month, so far its worked fine. Strong, durable & stable, only thing is the capacity is only 130 lbs.

Durable and easy to use, fairly lightweight and easy to store... especially important for a mom with little ones!
