Allen Sports Deluxe 2-Bike Trunk Mount Rack, Model 102DN-R, Black

Giving it 5 stars because it's 100% functional, feels rock solid, my bike doesn't move at all over bumps, on the highway etc. And it's so cheap that no other bike rack comes close to the value you get with this. The only thing I don't like about it, is the nylon straps are very low quality, I'm sure they will degrade quickly, especially if you get caught in the weather often. However, with the way it's designed, it would be very easy to replace the straps with better ones if/when that time comes. Other than that, it's very easy to use, folds up compact and takes up very little space in my trunk. It's lightweight and easy to mount by yourself. The straps are plenty long enough for any car. The instructions are very clear and give you different options for mounting depending on how your car is built.

So easy to install and secured out bikes well. Used these for bmx bikes but could easily use it for bigger ones!! Good size and super sturdy. I felt comfortable with the way it held the bikes. It was easy to fold and put back into the trunk after we were done using it.

This is a very well-built bike rack and I'm going to use it for a 6 hour road trip with 3 bikes. I tested it with a short trip to a local trail with two bikes and it performed well. Set-up was fairly easy. I just followed the directions and it was pretty simple to attach to my Honda CRV. Some reviewers complained about the metal hooks, but I found that they had a smooth coating on them that should keep you from scratching up your car in any way. Just be somewhat careful when attaching. Traveling to the trail I noticed a bit of a "squeaky" noise coming from the rack. I believe that may have been caused by the soft rack support "bumper" rubbing on the rear car window. A slight repositioning of the bikes for the return trip seemed to make this go away. I noticed no shifting or problems with the rack once we got to the trail. The bikes were still securely attached and I had even made some quick starts and stops and a few hard turns, but the bikes were solid. The only thing I don't like is the fasteners that hold the bikes onto the rack. Other racks I've used have a rubber "latch" that is quick and easy to lock the bike onto the rack. These holders require you to thread the strap through and back to attach the bike. It's not terrible, but kind of a pain to do something that used to take seconds and now takes minutes. Oh well. It's not a terrible drawback, but I knocked off one star for that design deficiency. Removal of the rack was quite easy. For each strap, simply lifting the latch on each strap seems to loosen it sufficiently to remove the hook from the car. The unit doesn't take up much space when removed from your car, so that's a big plus too. Overall this is a great value for the price. I recommend this rack for all your biking needs.

Works very well. I can set it up on my car in 5 minutes. Take down in 2 minutes. Holds my e-bike by itself, which is 66 pounds. I also use four Velcro straps to hold the tires and give extra support.

This is a very strong excellent bike rack well made without cutting any corners on the quality of the materials. It is a design that has been a standard for fifty years. Thousands are in use. ELECTRIC BIKES ARE HEAVIER, SO CAREFULLY OBSERVE THE WEIGHT SPECIFICATION FOR THE 2, 3 OR 4 BIKE CARRIERS. It can easily be put on & removed from almost any car, unlike racks that need to be attached to a trailer mount. This is my second rack from "Allen" after forty years I retired the first one due to old age. It was still so stable that I could jerk the bike rack and shake the car!!! This bike rack is the classic design and exceptionally well built .... BUY THIS RACK

Easy to use and surprisingly stable. Easy setup once you get the hang of it and assuming you tighten the straps well, it is more stable on my compact SUV than I was expecting. Great product considering the cost.

The Allen Sports trunk mount bike rack for two bikes is a decent option if you’re looking for something affordable and easy to use. Installation is fairly straightforward, and it holds the bikes securely for short trips. The rack is lightweight and easy to store when not in use. That said, there are a few downsides. The straps require careful adjustment, and you need to double-check them before every drive to make sure everything stays tight. It also lacks padding in some areas, so extra care is needed to avoid scratches on the car or bikes. For longer trips or highways, it doesn’t feel as stable as higher-end racks. Overall, it works well for occasional use and short distances, but if you plan to transport bikes frequently or on long trips, you may want to invest in a more robust option. Good value for the price, but with some limitations.

The first installation is easily the most frustrating part. When I first opened the box. I was very nervous that I was going to need a Boy Scout to help me attach it to my car. I settled for my roommate. It looks complicated when you first attempt to figure where every one of the flopping tentacle-like straps go. Then you press the rack's padded bars against your car and strap the hooks onto your trunk or hatchback. The product description brags about how initial assembly shouldn't take more than a few seconds, which isn't especially flattering to my skills. The first assembly is easily the most frustrating part. Took me about five minutes to discover exactly what goes where and how. Only about a minute of that time was spent crying and ruing existence. The second time you put it on takes about thirty seconds. Your straps are already at about the right length and your muscle memory will compensate for your general inability to attach things. Putting bicycles on there is pretty easy. Lift them up and into the little cradles. Then those are a simple strap on each side and it holds it secure. Repeat these steps for however many bicycles you plan to attach (which really maxes out at three total). I would recommend buying bungee cables to secure your front tire so that the handlebar stays stationary. Pros: 1. I am terribly uncoordinated at these types of things. And I have managed to get my assembly time down to about 29 seconds. If I can make this thing stay on my car, then your dog probably could too. 2. It's super compact. When I'm not using it. It fits really well inside my trunk. 3. The price. I was initially going to buy a much more expensive one, but I decided to give this one a chance. It has worked tremendously for my needs. 4. It holds very securely on the back of my Chevy Cobalt. I never have to worry about it. Cons: 1. The instructions are not very intuitive or helpful. It ends up being more guesswork than I'm sure they intended. 2. It looks very daunting at first. But once you attach it once. It's never difficult again.

Very very good brand. Very good quality. Easy installation. For salon car, suv car or 4*4 car. Fixed within 1 min only.

Wow, this carrier is really easy to install on my wife's Mini, and carries 2 bikes easily and securely.

Easy to install, feels really sturdy and secure and stays that way while travelling.

Tenía dudas si la primera bici (mtb 26") pegaría del para choques, maletero, pero no lo hace queda a una distancia prudente. En las imágenes 1 Talla M rin 26, 1 L rin 29 y una XXL rin 29. Se ajusta perfecto al maletero de mi Mazda 6, fácil de tensar. Solo no me gustó no trae una protección de goma el las L metálicas con las que se ajusta al auto (las fabricaré cortando una vieja cámara de bicicleta). Me falta probar rodando, no luce que pueda tomar curvas fuertes a alta velocidad sinnriesgo de perder las bicis, pero no lo puedo asegurar, aun no tomo carretera. Retroceder es dificil ya que en los espejos no se logra ver y menos en la cámara de reversa, pero si van tres bicis llevas copilotos que te pueden apoyar. No olvides guardar en el maletero lo que llevarás antes o deberás hacerlo por los respaldos de los asientos. Revisaré la opinón luego de viajar.

Great product
