Negative Positive
Title: Not bad...
Review: Since I drive a hatchback ('04 Pontiac Vibe) with room for a couple of bikes in the back, I don't have a ton of experience with bike racks. I recently moved 300 miles to another state, and I needed that space for boxes of stuff. I considered buying a roof-mount system, but the minimal amount of use didn't justify the rather high buy-in price for such systems. A relative loaned me a used (not sure what brand/model) rear-mount rack, but I was pretty apprehensive about the low quality and instability of the loaner rack. I picked the Saris for its blend of affordability and stability, and I was not disappointed. It weathered 260+ miles of interstate and a good chunk of bumpy city roads without any problems. I loaded a heavier, steel-framed Surly Cross Check nearest the vehicle and a lighter, aluminum & carbon Trek road bike on the outside.
Is the review positive or negative?
