SportRack - A30604 - Hitch'n'Drive 4 Bike Rack - (For 1.25"/2" Receiver) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The rack is OK, but I have two problems with it:
1. The design of the hitch mount that lets you use 2" or 1.25" receivers makes the rack cumbersome to install.
2. The rack uses a threaded bolt, instead of a hitch pin, to attach to the receive. The bolt is an odd size, so it is impossible to lock the rack to the receiver.

Saris Bike Porter Hitch 4 Bike Universal Hitch Rack (4 Bike) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First off, I have a 2" hitch on my vehicle so I do not have the problem the other reviewer(s) report. Otherwise this rack is easy to use and does the job nicely. Very little sway on the carried bikes even at highway speeds. I use bungee cords to immobilize each front wheel from turning. I have an Acadia and the tilt feature on the rack makes getting into the rear tailgate a snap.
Great product.

Yakima DeadLock Hitch Mount Bike Rack Bike Lock with Core Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)So I bought this lock package to protect both my bikes and my new Yakima DoubleDown rack. Unfortunately there is a HUGE design flaw with how this system works on the DoubleDown racks. Yes, you can lock the bikes to the rack and also the rack to the hitch with this product. Unfortunately, Yakima engineers didn't seem to think about securing the pivot bolt in the middle where the rack folds down. It is just as easy (if not even easier) to simply unscrew that pivot bolt and take the whole rack off as it is to take out the hitch pin. Imagine coming back to your truck to find that your bikes and rack are both gone, but the lower trailer hitch piece of the rack is still safely locked to the hitch. Seems like a very sloppy oversight to me. Go look at a demo rack in a retail store. You'll see what I mean. The pivot bolt is not protected at all, and it would take only a minute to unscrew it and be gone with the whole rack...despite both of these locks.

Enjoy peace of mind while driving with your bikes with the Yakima DeadLock. Offering an easy way to lock your bikes directly to your Yakima hitch-mount bike rack--and in turn secure your hitch-mount to your car--the DeadLock strikes fear into the hearts of devious thieves. The unit includes an upper lock that secures the outside bike to the hitch-mount using a cable and steel pin, along with a hitch lock that secures the rack to your vehicle. Drivers can rest assured that the DeadLock will hold up to use and abuse thanks to the lock's injection-molded design and metal core. Plus, the lock comes with a single key for locking both your bikes and the rack. As with all Yakima products, the DeadLock carries a limited lifetime warranty.

Thule Hitch Ski Carrier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just fitted this to my 998xt rack. It fits fairly well, and feels pretty secure. It's well made, and comes with all the accessories you'll need.
The downside is that it's impossible to get my shaped skis (Rossi Bandit B3s) into the rack the way they suggest (back to back). They do fit, but less securely, as individual skis. This reduces the capacity to 3 pairs of skis, and not 6.
Also the height of the rack, even with my relatively short skis, is insane - the tops of the skis stand a good 2 feet above the roofline of my SUV.
To be honest.... I wish I'd bought a roof rack, and just stuck with the Thule rack for my bike.

Thule 915XT Roadway 5 Bike Hitch Carrier Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Just got back from a 1600 mile road trip with 5 bikes in the rack hanging out the hitch of my wife's XC90. My bike is the only one of the five that fit perfect, two of the bikes were my wife's and my daughter's and two were my sons' all of which did not have a cross bar to sit over the rack's two bars in a "pretty" manner. With some patience and wiggling all five bikes fit and were strapped snug over the rack. It held really well even through the hills and mountains of northern Georgia. The bikes come off easily and we were able to unload. The only problem is that if the rack is fully loaded with five bikes you better have a good reason to get into the back of your SUV because it takes three people to gently let the rack down and to put it back up.
