Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Installed it within 20 minutes - attached 2 bikes and went off for a bike ride. Very smooth ride on the freeway and the dirt road. A 100% improvement over our previous rack! It was easy to assemble and easy to get the bikes secured to the rack!
great packaging and product was what was described, speedy service

Thule Hitching Post Pro Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches
Very happy with my Thule hitch-mounted, four-bike rack. I used to worry about hauling two bikes on my old strap-on rack, but no more! I've yet to use it with four bikes, but it's handled one, two, and three bikes with ease. It's easy enough to install and un-install for one person, and a breeze with two. I've taken several camping trips during which I get stuff out of and put stuff into the back of my Ford Escape. The rack folds down quickly and easily to make this possible-- getting it almost completely out of the way. The one area that could be better is security. There's no way to lock the rack to the hitch nor the bikes to the rack.
Easy enough to assemble and attach to the hitch. Lock assembly also seems easy to use. My better half doesn't want the rack left on her Escape when we're not using so it will be off more than on (until I get tired of installing/removing. Overall, we're very pleased with this product. Very impressed with Etrailer as well. Product shipped the day I ordered and actually arrived prior to my installation of a class III hitch on one of our vehicles. The follow-up is excellent and I highly recommend this online purchase.

Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style
Could not be happier with the product and the service - moving from LA to Portland and we couldn't fit the bikes in the pod - so etrailer came to the rescue!
I assembled the Thule Passage 2 trunk bike rack but have not yet used it on the road. The Instructions for assembling the rack were very poorly written and presented. The drawings did not look like the parts in the box and Some items were listed but not in the box AND some items were not marked properly on the instructions diagram! Good grief! Get a proof reader! I hope the rack works better than the Instructions did.

Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount
I have a 2003 Ford Escape and it fit perfectly! East to use and my bike is safe and secure. The only thing was it was recommended that I buy an extra bar if I had a girls bike - this was not needed for the kind of bike I have.
The rack arrived in a timely manner. Installation was easy. The unit seems very sturdy, but I have yet to take it foe a spin.

Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Seemingly well-constructed and supported bike rack. It fits my 2018 Toyota Camry SE just fine and I haven't had any issues with sway or even feeling my bike while driving. I've only carried one bike on it and have used it a limited number of times, so I cannot speak on durability and longevity. Although you shouldn't open your trunk while the rack is attached, I have been able to do so with no issue (without the bike attached).
While getting a bike rack for a sports car isn't ideal, I really wanted to transfer my bike with my own car instead of borrowing my friend's pickup truck. After hours of trying to find a bike rack that would be good for my 07 Mustang, I decided to give this one a try and I gotta say, it has been pretty good so far. It fits very well over the factory spoiler. One of my biggest concerns I was worried about when ordering a rack for my Mustang was ruining the paint, but the feet on the legs haven't left one scratch. I have used this to transfer my bike at freeway speeds (up to 80 mph) on car rides that typically last an hour and my bike was perfectly secure throughout each ride. For extra security, I wrapped both bike wheels with a ratchet strap so the wheels and pedals wouldn't shift in transit. So far, I am very pleased with this bike rack for the price and quality. I would highly recommend this if you want a rack that is affordable and durable.

Yakima HangOut 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Put rack on my 2015 Ford Escape and when I tried to open the rear door the clamps bent the door metal. I cannot use this on my car . The brackets are to thick to fit into the openings, both top and bottom The bike rack is useless on my car as it was sent to me
Once I found online measurements and youtube videos, it was easy to install. My bike is a girls bike without the straight bar from seat to handlebars and I didn't need additional the product they said may be required. The bumper of my 2016 Escape is plastic and the hatch door has no lip to hold the clamp for the bottom straps. I attached the clamp to the metal bracket that attaches the bumper to the car. I'm happy with this product and look forward to biking other places rather than around my block.

Rhino-Rack Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Tilting
My friend and I each bought this product and find the quality to be excellent. My complaint is that 2 bikes are not an easy fit. I wonder if the “cradles” can be separated more but it too difficult for me. Other than that I highly recommend this item

Swagman Trailhead Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting
The bike rack arrived in a timely manner and was easy to assemble and install. I am delighted with it!
Once again Kirstin was Awesome!!! She remembered who i was and was very friendly again. My wife and I have ordered multiple items from e-trailers, for our auto and motor coach, and the service is fabulous. The last order of the dual receiver and bike rack were placed on the road while driving and Kirstin was Spot on with her recommendation and product knowledge. Yes you may be able to find things cheaper out on the internet, but we highly recommend the service and knowledge of e-trailers. Will use e-trailers again and again as we travel.

Yakima HangOut 3 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
Got this for our 2013 Ford Escape for a 4 hour trip we were making on roads varying from highway to back roads. The installation is easy if you take the time to plan out the straps and follow the directions. Lots of rubber and padding to keep from scratching the car. It seemed pretty solid even with the sway. It was a little weird when we tightened things down the top bar came off the glass. It didn't affect the performance, but it did make for a little concern going down the road. If we loosened things up to keep the bar on the glass it was too loose to prevent sway.

Kuat Beta Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Trailer Hitches - Tilting
I did a lot of research and decided this was the rack for me. I was totally correct. First, it has all the most important features but only weighs about 14 lbs. I was concerned as a senior lady with arthritis issues. I can use it well and it performed perfectly with an adapter bar for my Electra Townie. I have had compliments from several seasoned riders and a bike shop owner here at the beach who said it was great quality and I got a great price. Also purchased a locking trailer hitch pin with bike cable from etrailer. All over satisfaction with products and etrailer who provided enough videos to help me.
This product is exactly what I wanted. The 2" post fits in the reciever perfectly, and no wiggle. I did tighten the mounting screw, but didn't have to change the hardware I have already (locks). There are two more screws to reduce the wiggles at each pivot point, and there was little to begin with. I tend to test way beyond the breaking point, and did some aggressive driving with every bump across town to the first ride. All good and I won't worry while driving with the bike attached moving forward. Only thing I wish it had was a locking mechanism, but I used a wire cable and lock. The other comparable ones with a lock were 2X the price. I can use the additional lock if I have other plans than just a trail. Service has been outstanding and I will look for any future purchases of this kind to be through etrailer.
What our customers are saying:
"The hitch and bike rack for my Kia Sportage arrived in three days! This is my second Hidden Hitch and like the first, this fit perfectly and was installed in under 20 minutes. Great products and service! I'll recommend them to my friends. Thanks"
