Good features, works well, decent price.,

Pros: Good features, mounts far enought away from tail gate to prevent scratch.
Cons: Wobbles, can't use a regular receiver latching pin or even a key locking pin.
"To prevent wobble I used a rope, tied it to th left side tie down in the truck bed then over the tail gate and 3 times around the carrier, back over the tail gate to the right tie down in the truck bead. Now no wobble what soever. For the 2" receiver mount their added aliminum spacer should be of steal and welded on to the receiver arm to provide a snug fit to prevent wobble. The whole in the carrier receiver arm is to small except for the securing bolt provided. Your normal latching pin or even a key locking pin can not be used because of this . I purchased the recomended key locking pin and I was determined to use it so I drilled out the carrier receivewr arm whole to accomidate the key locking pin. Except for the carrier receiver arm, the manufacturer made an excellent bike carrier rack."

a solid 4.5, 
August 6, 2010

Pros: price, mounting options, swing away feature, easy and quick assembly
Cons: wobbles
"This is a great product. A solid 4.5 but since no option-> then it's a 5. I ordered the 1 1/4 mount.
From time out of package to together, installed and operational was 10 minutes ( doing it by myself). Instructions were simple. The swing away feature can also be useful for loading of bikes for smaller people or if ( for some reason) I don't want to lift as high .
The only detractor is that it wobbles while driving down the road. The manufacturer's instructions say avoid rough travel conditions ( including off- road use). However, even paved roads created a degree of wobble. The included
" anti- wobble" bolt does no different than a standard trailer hitch bolt ( with the standard bolt, it is easier to remove the carrier- which I opted to use instead). The solution, tie it to one of the hitch loops if it becomes too much to deal with. Use parachute cord, or something similar in strength does the trick, at least reduces it considerably.
Overall, a great product for the money."

Pros: Versatile, easy use, accepts women's bike, good price
Cons: None!
"Using on Toyota Prius. This carrier folds out of the way, even with bike on it. Easy to fit bikes into the variable angle anchors. Everything cinches down tight. No possibility of bikes making contact with vehicle."
