Malone SeaWing Saddle Style Universal Car Rack Kayak Carrier with Bow and Stern Lines Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)After trying several kayak carriers this is the most user friendly that I have found. Easy to install and easy to position kayaks on top. Even though brackets seem very secure I would like to see the mounting brackets enlarged to accomodate the larger rails on my vehicle (Tahoe Z71)locking more in place.

New Orleans Saints Carved Logo Hitch Cover Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Well made, easy to assemble ALL METAL hitch cover.
It assembles with 4 screws and fits small and larg hitch receivers. Upon assmebly the screws are hidden so theieves can't remove it. All hardware is stainless steel, to prevent rust.
I have purchased a plastic one (for not much less money) prior to owning this one and it broke after one month. it broke in an automatic car wash, that I considered fairly mild.
The logo is large and very noticable. I know it is noticable because I get glared at by Cowboys fans as they pass :)
Spend the money and do it right.
Another suggestion. Immediately purchase a keyed trailer hitch lock to secure your hitch.

Swagman Standard 4-Bike Fold Down Towing Rack (2" receiver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had this rack for since 2002 - has worked well for carrying bikes whether towing my +2000-lbs popup camper or not. I've recommended it to friends, and would buy it again.
Don't use the swing-down feature often, as it's pretty heavy if bikes are loaded. The v-cradles for the bikes don't work as well for the oval tubes on some bikes - especially for really "tall" top tubes. I bought a "cheater" tube for adapting troublesome bikes (ladies frame, etc.) to fit the rack.
The three screws to fasten the top plate are a little tedious, but I can clamp it as tight as I want, can accomodate top tubes of varous diameters (the top plate flexes), and I have never seen them loosen even after several hours of highway driving.
Re: earlier comments on chains: I tow with a minivan (towing package including load-leveling). I had to get safety chain extensions so I could tow my popup camper. To kee the chains off the road, I use a bungee cord from the crossing point to the trailer tongue.

Swagman XP Fold Down 5-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I needed a 5 bicycle rack that could handle all our family bikes, including our 3 children's (5, 7 and 10 yrs. old) for our yearly vacation. This one seemed to be pretty versatile, not requiring additional bars for most bikes.
While it took some work to make all bikes fit just right (especially the little ones), we made the 4 hour trip to the mountains just fine; no excessive movement (though it does sway a little), no damage to the bicycles (I used pipe insulating foam tube pieces in a couple of spots where bikes rubbed each other) and an overall uneventful trip, even on some not-so-smooth roads. Getting the kids' bikes on was kinda tricky (the littlest one had to travel upside down!) but it worked out fine--I don't think it would have been so with some of the other 2-bar models.
However, if I had to load all 5 bikes on a regular basis I'd probably be looking for a different option. Also, something this rack (and most others too) could use is some kind of reflective finish on the end of the tube... can never be too safe!
