5 out of 5 stars very pleased   October 28, 2008
T. Stogsdill
The first time we tried to put the rack on the van it took us about an hour... Once it was completed we couldn't believe it took so long. Now it takes 5 min and off we go. It's very sturdy.


3 out of 5 stars Nice product but mislead re: vehicle versatility   September 29, 2008

I was very disappointed when I opened the box and took out the manual which said that the rack was not recommended for my type of car. In the Amazon description, it said it fit most cars, when in fact it wasn't recommended for my husband's car or my neighbor's car either. The return process was relatively seamless except for the inconvenience. I think there should have been a way to check the manual first to make sure that it is recommended for your car. The manual could have been scanned for shoppers to view. It would have saved a lot of time and hassle.

purchased for a 2 week vacation - for 2 bikes - to be driven over 1500 miles. managed about 2 miles. wasnt convinced that the thing would stay on. bikes were rocking like crazy - checked the fitting several times. gave up and got one that attaches to a tow hitch. difference was night and day. perhaps on a different shape car (we have an SUV) or with a lot more time and patience it would have been ok ... but if unsure, spend the money and get a tow hitch one.

CARRIED 2 BIKES FROM VIRGINIA TO MICHIGAN AND BACK - OVER 1400 MILES. INSTALLATION DIRECTIONS WERE GOOD. MY 11 YEAR OLD GRANDSON HELPED ME INSTALL ON SIENNA VAN - NOT DIFFICULT AT ALL. BIKES STAYED PUT DURING TRIP.

I purchased this rack based on Thule's reputation and other reviews stating that it's a decent bike rack- I did not make the wrong decision with this model. This bike back holds two mountain bikes without any problems and is very sturdy if tied down properly.
