Easy to Use

By Ben Jepson Ranked #529 - Car Racks November 18, 2009

I own three of these racks and they currently sit on top of an '09 Subaru Impreza. These racks are simple to assemble and simple to use. I regularly haul around three downhill bikes or a couple of fixed gear bikes with 700c wheels and it is easy to adjust the rack to fit either size. The trays accomodate a pretty large wheel base, my Kona Stinky about maxes it out but it's one of the longer bikes that I've encountered. There is a bit of sway with these racks when they have heavier bikes and the road is windy or bumpy, but I've never had one let loose. The only issue I've had is that the fifth door on my Subaru would hit the back of the middle tray every time I opened it. I cut it down a half an inch and now it's great!
