Pros & Cons

Pros

Used this on a hatchback model and it can be installed and secured in 20min easily for 2 bikes without rushing. Easy peasy on my acura tlx with small spoiler. Fits our 2020 ford explorer as if we're made exclusively for it. Used on a 2011 toyota prius...  Read More

The straps are powder coated and labeled for ease of use. The brackets are labelled by being stamped into the metal but can be hard to read, depending on the thickness of the coating.

A very built and well designed bike that is proudly made in usa (madison, wi). Love that their parts are sourced within 120 miles of the factory. Thoughtful product design.

Rubber shoe works well against the bumper and the back window. Works perfect with the saros crossbar on my wife's bike.

Very sturdy and strong. Easily carries 2 adult bikes and one youth bike. Was able to fit my porsche macan quite well.



Cons

This is better suited to a purely trunk mount and with the almost entirely plactic construction it doesn't seem like it will last with daily use. The entire bike rack is designed incredibly poorly. This third party should never be permitted to sell pr...  Read More

The rack itself seems well assembled and sturdy, but it absolutely does not fit my 2021 subaru forester. The strap for the seat tube is directly underneath the cross tube. Spend the money and have a receiver installed on a compact suv and use a hitch ...  Read More

Quality


It is light sturdy inexpsensivee and carries my bicycle securely


Solid and stable at speed no bouncing movement or drag


The shape of the upper arms gets the strap over the spoiler and puts no force on it even when the rack is tightened down


They broke after the first use and didnt stay tight prior to breaking

Price


It’s perfect and the price was so reasonable


I know it saves money but it cant add much more to make that important fix


It was going to cost us easy over 1000 to get a hitch installed and bike rack for our hatchback


This cost me two batteries so i know what im talking about

Shipping


Only shipped after contacting amazon support to request a cancellation


Shipping took forever with no communication from the seller


It did come without one strap attached but the manufacturer promptly sent me the proper part


Rack just arrived or should i say the replacement

Packaging/appearance


My first rack had some hairline cracks in both arms at the same point in their arch so i sent it back as the box it came in was...  Read More


The first rack arrived with the box opened and on inspection i found a hold down strap was missing

Competitiveness


Pricey but less than others and i feel worth the extra bucks for stability and construction


Was going to install a rear hitch but as i had a honda fit and subaru crosstrek i wanted to be able to switch between the two c...  Read More

    No budge wiggle or loosening

    First this is for saris please update the clamping knobs to have metal threads


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I almost had to return the rack because i ignorantly removed the knob entirely and when i went to reinstall it i crossthreaded it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Plastic threads in a metal nut will cross thread with about the same torque as the threads going in correctly

    I know it saves money but it cant add much more to make that important fix


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The biggest seller for me was the angled upper arms along with the strap guide


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I couldnt use it on the back of my two honda odysseys because the straps would put a severe downward force on the rear spoiler

    The shape of the upper arms gets the strap over the spoiler and puts no force on it even when the rack is tightened down
