Customer Rating: I would buy this product again... By Clinton from Ohio the rack is well made, holds bikes stable,easy to use does everything the adds say.looked at a lot of racks and the softride element had the features i wanted.the perfect rack.could not be happier with my purchase,well worth the price Customer Rating: Pretty nice rack By stud mtn biker from Marietta, GA Works great on my Envoy. The parallelogram design is sweet. it gets heavy with multiple bikes on it so it requires a little muscle to lift it back up and lock in, but what a great feature regardless! The bolt that comes with it to bolt it in tightly to your hitch receiver keeps it nice and tight so it doesn't sway at all. Very nice race. I highly recommend it. Only problem I've seen is that the rubber supports on each arm for you bike are soft and get damaged easily when mounting kids bikes. Also be careful not to drop it when putting it together. The stubs for the rubber locking straps are kind of brittle. My son was playing with one arm while I was assembling and he dropped it and broke one off when it hit my garage floor. I superglued and used a small screw to repair it. The repair works fine so far. 1-2 of 2
