 Excellent product May 15, 2007

This is an excellent bike rack in that it is both light and very strong. Many of the other bike racks out there weigh a ton and are just overbuilt for two bicycles. This rack is light enough that my wife has no problem installing and removing it by herself. We have a 2 inch hitch on the back of our Toyota Prius and this rack fits snug as a bug. There is no "play" between the hitch and the rack, and the rack comes with the 2 inch hitch adapter already installed. The velcro straps secure the bikes very effectively. We see no need for ropes - bungees or any other tie down device. We are using bungees to keep the bike wheels from spinning while on the back of the car. This product is a bargain.

For the money, this is a very good rack. It is sturdy and very easy to use. The swing-away feature makes is easy to access the rear of the vehicle.

I ordered this rack about a month ago and when I received it, I was excited, but was skeptical. I put it together, which was a little bit of a pain but only because I was having trouble finding the right size socket. After I put it together, I put it on my car and found that you have to screw the mount into your hitch holder istead of using a pin and a catch, like when you hook your trailer up to the hitch. I found that you have to screw in the mount to make the bike rack secure, which it is. Just make sure you leave a wrench in your trunk to take the rack on and off, it doesn't take more then four minutes.
Once it was mounted, I put my bike on it and the velcro straps didn't secure correctly, there wasn't enough velcro. I called Bell and let them know the situation and they sent me corrected mounts right away and now the bikes secure very securly with the bike mounts and one bungee cord.
This bike rack will work for you, if you have the smaller hitch size, I have not had a chance yet to try it on the larger hitch size.

Received 2 bike rack quickly and in excellent condition.
Installed on car smoothly and bike mounts very well.
Only weak link is the velcro bike tie downs probably will
not hold up well in the weather.
Good value for the money January 19, 2007
