Looking at getting one of these, could you give opinions please
I've had one for several years, although I don't use it anymore as I couldn't get the Swan neck mount adaptor when I changed cars.
On the plus side...
It's very solid, even with 4 bikes on
Tow bar mounted, so no damage to the car from hooks, straps, contact with bike
Strap and lock all built in
Easy to fit to, and remove from, the car
Doesn't take up much space when not in use (we've taken the dismantled bikes in the car before for security on the long journey on holiday, with the rack in the boot, then built the bikes up and used the rack for the duration of the holiday to get to the rides)
The downsides:
If your bikes are not medium to large, conventional style hardtails you may well need "false crossbars", that hook between the seat post and stem to get the bikes to hang sensibly. Full suss designs with no horizontal top tube or small hardtails where the top tube is steeply sloped either don't fit at all or sit with one end very high making it difficult to get another bike on
Whilst the bikes go on very quickly, by the time you've padded any contact areas and strapped on a number plate board it can take a little time to get right.
A Thule type platform carrier can be easier to get the bikes on, regardless of size and style, and has a built in number plate and lighting, but takes up much more space when not in use.
Hopefully this makes some sense...
