This is a bike rack is made for two bikes and only fits a 2 inch receiver hitch. The first step involves taking the straps off the cradles so we can put the bike on. We have done that so lets grab a bike and put it on there and see how it looks. As you can see here, this bicycle rack here will accept a standard bicycle frame, in this case a road bike. Now we will show it to you with an alternative frame bike. As you can see this is how the bicycle rack handles with an alternative frame bike. There is a little bit of an angle but still steady and will not go anywhere. While we have the bike on here we will show you some of the features that make this bike rack a pretty good deal. First off we will show you the straps in the cradles themselves. As you can see those are easy to use rubber straps that hold the bike in place. It is all rubber to metal contact, you will not scratch it and it is easy to use.
It will fit a different variety of tubes on different varieties of bikes. If you notice on one of the other cradles on the other side, there is another strap called the anti-sway device. What it does is wrap around this tube here and keeps your bike from going forward and back. It limits the movement. The next nice feature about this rack is the built in locking device. There is an end here in the arm and there is an end on a cable that gets stored in the rack itself. Simply just wrap it around the tube and it will just snap on to the other half. While we are looking at the rack lock here, you can see that this cover actually twists to hide it out of the way and keep dust and road grime out of the lock at the same time. Another nice feature about this rack is storage and accessibility to the rear of your vehicle. What is nice is when you have it on the vehicle you can tilt it down to the back in case you forgot something to get out. It would probably work better if you take the bikes off first, but you can do it with the bikes on there.
We will show you how that works. Last but not least is the storage feature about this rack. As you have seen while I was putting it together I actually folded up the arms. If you want to store it and take up less space, put the arms back down. We will review it one more time so you know how it works out. The rack is now ready for storage. A note about this bike rack is that the overall distance across the arms is going to be 14 inches. Overall, this is a full feature bicycle rack. Like I said before it is good for a two inch receiver hitch and two bicycles. It is all you need in one nice tiny little package to haul two bikes.
