First let me say this rack is nice. The instructions were lacking in blow up pictorials of placing the cradles and sleeves for the locking arms on.....if you buy it you will see what I mean. The hardware bag with all the bolts should be labeled to sizing as some look alike. Small things in all reality but if you have put together as many racks as I have you generally can sort it fairly quick. This system could have been designed and space between bikes about 1" more per bike for a total of 3" to make sure nothing on a bike touches another......but it does slightly. But overall......a decent rack. Look for them on sale as they do hit sub $500 at times. Would I buy again......sure.
I discovered the hitch receiver cam tightener to eliminate play in the hitch. Awesome feature as at first when I placed into my receiver hitch on the RV it wobbled a bit and I thought this is lacking! Then I went back to the directions and it was printed as to this feature I just overlooked it upon assembly....LOL
Still 4.5 stars due to large cradle lack of more adjust ability to accommodate different styles of bikes without rubbing. As you see I gave it 5-stars overall, but in all reality deserves 4.5 for the fact they could have made the distance between the cradles a tad wider to be extra sure no bikes touch as to handlebars. Dealbreaker???? No.......just know unless you have a narrow width handlebar system your mountain bikes will more than likely touch if you load three! Road bikes, no problem!
