Review: Works great with pickup truck - Bought this bike rack because we were going on a road trip & wanted to bring the bikes for more outdoor things to do. I am also always bringing the bikes back & forth to our campground & having to load them into the bed of the truck can be annoying. When I was looking at the reviews for this product I saw a bunch that were geared towards SUVs & only a couple for pickup trucks. Here's my review after taking one test drive with this bike rack. 1st I have to say it was easy to assemble & seems pretty durable. I liked how the rack folds down & then can be moved away from the tailgate. When I lowered the gate it does rest on the bike rack & I wouldn't recommend standing on the tailgate while it's resting on the rack, but it does allow you to get the Tonneau cover off if you have one. From there you can climb into the bed of the truck. The 1st time I did this it was without bikes, so it was rather easy. Once I got back from our 20 minute test drive I tried lowering the bike rack down with 4 bikes on (pic attached). You might want to have 2 people for this since the rack is pretty heavy with all the bikes & needed some pressure to get the pin out. Also I recommend having someone guide the bikes down so they don't slam. In the end it worked, but will take a little bit more effort. Yes, raising the rack back into place is more difficult, but it can be done. Now the process of actually putting the bikes on. My one boy's bike is oddly shaped. Of course this was the 1st bike I tried to put on and it was a bit of a challenge. That is until I figured out that the mounts for the bikes rotate, which turned out to be a huge benefit. Once I got it figured out I was able to secure the bike nicely to the rack. I have attached a pic of how I had to rotate it & turn it upside-down. This also turned out to be benficial for the other bikes since they're all shaped a bit different & being able to rotate the area they mount allowed for the bikes to be secured well. I read that some bike racks need a bar for bikes, like female angled bars, to be attached correctly, but I didn't have an issue putting all 4 bikes on. Once the bikes were on and secure I used a tie down strap to secure all the front wheels. This would keep the handlebars from moving & swaying during travel. Now we set off on the 20 minute drive from our campground back home. The road getting out of the campground is a bit bumpy, but I didn't have any issues with the bikes. The remainder of the ride was mostly highway, going about 75 mph. The bike rack & bikes held up great! Finally, the security feature. I really like that I can lock the rack into the hitch. It was easy to tighten & seemed to do a good job at securing it. That doesn't keep somone from stealing the bikes off of it though. What I did was bought a 15' security cable & lock. I wound the cable around the bikes & used the lock to secure it to the hitch. I feel with both these measures out bikes should be pretty safe. At this time I give this bike rack a 5 star rating. If for some reason I have anything to add/change I will update this review. We are about to go on a road trip (about 3000 miles) so I should know more about it's durability then. UPDATE: This thing went 4000 miles without a single issue. At times the speed limit was 80 mph & I was worried after seeing some reviews about the arm bars bending. Well this thing is a tank & I highly recommend!
Review: Great product! - The price is right & the bike rack is great. We used the 4 bike rack for our daughters bikes & drove over 1,000 miles. We attached the rack to our 2001 Chevy Suburban. 2 Bikes During our trip we only had the two bikes. We are not huge bikers, just a family with kids who want to ride their bikes, so we didn't want to spend too much money. This bike rack is perfect. We used the bolt & screw it came with and there was absolutely no wiggling or moving or noise as we drove 1,000+ miles. On the trip we were able to get a 24" beach cruiser & a smaller bike with training wheels on the rack easily. We had to adjust the straps to tie down the bike, but that wasn't too hard. We also used rope to secure the bikes, just in case. 4 Bikes On a different occasion and more than once, we were able to fit a 26" beach cruiser, 24" beach cruiser and two bikes with training wheels on the rack with no problem. We loaded them biggest to smallest. We did not purchase the cross bar. Instead we used put the rack between the bike frames so the bikes "sat" on the rack. On some bikes we had to turn the straps inward to "tetris" the bike on for a more secure fit. We also turned the last bike upside down so it could fit due to the training wheels. We turned each bike the opposite way when we put them on so that the pedals wouldn't hit each other. Putting 4 Bikes on this rack is totally doable without the cross bar AND with child bikes with training wheels. It is totally worth the money. The rack is easy to install. The arm folds down while still attached to truck when not in use. The rack does tilt down WITH ALL 4 bikes on it. We were able to life the Suburban door open completely with all 4 bikes on the rack. It is heavy though. My husband held the rack while I removed the pin then he slowly tilted the bikes down. Once we accessed the back, he lifted the bikes back up & I put the pin back in to secure it. It's pretty easy, just heavy with 4 bikes. I was able to do it myself with only 2 bikes. Overall this is a great bike rack and great price.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 30 cents+2 cutters= No Wobbling
*by P***Y on May 18, 2016*

I've had this bike rack long enough to feel comfortable writing a review. I've taken my bikes to multiple locations on various days. So far, I've had as many as 3 bikes loaded at the same time and they are a 20,24 and 27 inch. The rack has held up quite well and I have not had any of the issues with the straps others have mentioned. The 24 inch bike is a girls bike and I have not had to buy an adapter in order to secure it properly. The space on the bike frame itself to go through the bike rack arm and the anti-sway cradles is minimal and I've found out after the first couple of times that turning them to the side makes mounting and unmounting very easy. This problem is specific to the 20 and 24 inch bikes only. My 27 inch gets on just fine. The rack itself feels very sturdy. While I have not had the need to tilt the rack down with the bikes mounted, I've done it only to experience how it feels and let me tell you that it can get heavy. I have this rack mounted on a 2003 Chevy Tahoe and I can open up the back window without having to remove bikes or tilt down the rack. The rack comes with an anti-wobble bolt and it really helps minimize any wobbling. This is possible, as far as I can tell, due to the way the bolt is shaped. It looks like a normal bolt except for the part directly underneath the head of the bolt which is wider and helps fill the space in the hole of the actual hitch. However, I did not feel comfortable with having the bikes on the rack with a bolt on the hitch but not locked so I set out to purchase a hitch lock which was a headache. The size of the hole on the rack is different than the hole on my hitch and I could not find a lock that would fit both. I finally settled on a 5/8 lock which matched the hole on my hitch and took a 5/8 drill bit to the hole in the bike rack which worked out very well. With this setup, there was more wobble than I had originally which required me to create a shim for the bike rack. Literally, for 30 cents I was able to create the shim that I needed. With the rack mounted and locked, I lifted the rack as much as I could in order to create separation between the rack and the hitch and I slid in 6 nickels. I was using a box cutter to shove the nickels in when I noticed that the cutter fit perfectly so took a couple of cutters, shoved them in, loaded bikes and went for a test ride. The cutters and the nickels eliminated most, if not all of the wobbling on the rack. They've been in there for about 3 weeks and they have not budged. I would have given the bike rack 5 stars due to the value and overall functionality, however, I wish they had taken into consideration average hitch lock size and provided a way for us to secure our bikes without the hassle I personally went through. I have attached couple of pictures for you to see what I did. I would still recommend this rack, along with step by step instructions on how to eliminate wobbling in case a hitch lock is purchased.
