The price is right & the bike rack is great. We used the 4 bike rack for our daughters bikes & drove over 1,000 miles. We attached the rack to our 2001 Chevy Suburban. 2 Bikes During our trip we only had the two bikes. We are not huge bikers, just a family with kids who want to ride their bikes, so we didn't want to spend too much money. This bike rack is perfect. We used the bolt & screw it came with and there was absolutely no wiggling or moving or noise as we drove 1,000+ miles. On the trip we were able to get a 24" beach cruiser & a smaller bike with training wheels on the rack easily. We had to adjust the straps to tie down the bike, but that wasn't too hard. We also used rope to secure the bikes, just in case. 4 Bikes On a different occasion and more than once, we were able to fit a 26" beach cruiser, 24" beach cruiser and two bikes with training wheels on the rack with no problem. We loaded them biggest to smallest. We did not purchase the cross bar. Instead we used put the rack between the bike frames so the bikes "sat" on the rack. On some bikes we had to turn the straps inward to "tetris" the bike on for a more secure fit. We also turned the last bike upside down so it could fit due to the training wheels. We turned each bike the opposite way when we put them on so that the pedals wouldn't hit each other. Putting 4 Bikes on this rack is totally doable without the cross bar AND with child bikes with training wheels. It is totally worth the money. The rack is easy to install. The arm folds down while still attached to truck when not in use. The rack does tilt down WITH ALL 4 bikes on it. We were able to life the Suburban door open completely with all 4 bikes on the rack. It is heavy though. My husband held the rack while I removed the pin then he slowly tilted the bikes down. Once we accessed the back, he lifted the bikes back up & I put the pin back in to secure it. It's pretty easy, just heavy with 4 bikes. I was able to do it myself with only 2 bikes. Overall this is a great bike rack and great price.
