I had no problem assembling the bike rack but recommend You Tube videos for this purpose, not the included instructions which are just pictures. I used the rack for a long trip to a bike tour in another state and was very happy with the ease of mounting and removing the bikes and how easy it is to lock the bikes to the rack. One needs an additional lock to go through the wheels but at least the frames are securely locked to the car.
This rack is super sturdy, safe and easy to use. I love the fold down function to access the back of the car. I drove over 1000 miles with my super expensive road bike and it was safely transported.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Quality and Very Sturdy!

I recently purchased the T2 Pro XTR and I am truly impressed with the quality and sturdiness! Well worth the price! I appreciate the built-in locks for both bikes and the rack itself, one less worry while stopping in to eat or shop. I definitely recommend it and would buy it again if needed.
As someone who bikes frequently one of my priorities is transporting my bikes safely in any conditions I may find myself in. The T2 Pro XTR seems to tick all the boxes for me with ease of use, spare parts availability, and being able to handle spirited driving on canyon roads. I love how solid the rack feels, super easy to assemble, and feels like I could put it on the back of a Porsche 911 and it would still hold the bikes just fine. Fun fact this rack may save your rear bumper in the event of a ばか crashing into your car. **Tested and verified by certified driving professionals on a closed course** ;)
This is an AWESOME bike rack. It arrived in a single well packed carton with no missing parts and no damage. The instructions made assembly very easy. The rack itself is very sturdy and easily supports our 2 ebikes. The bikes are easy to put on the rack, and secure in place. The integrated cable locks are a nice touch I didn't notice when I ordered the rack. I especially like the way it mounts to my 2" hitch receiver. The tensioning knob secures the rack and takes all the rattle and "slop" out of the system so the rack is quiet, sturdy and very secure. The integrated lock on the knob disconnects the mechanism so the rack can't be easily removed and stolen. Very well thought out product!
I love nearly everything. The sturdiness, the hitch hockup and tightening knob to cinch up the fit fairly eliminates the wobbles. Minuscule concerns. One of the arms that hooks the front wheel moves stiffly, strangely only while pulling up. The other concern is the length of the cable that locks around the front wheel. It takes effort to get it around the wheel and to get the fitting perpendicular to the lock to properly lock it. There is very little slack, I can only imagine doing it with a fat tire bike. Would gladly buy it again. I'm 65 and this will be the last bike rack I'll ever need.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I’m so glad I got this! After years using a cheap rack that I always worried about the bikes swaying back and forth, this rack is tight and solid never bounces or sways and with the integrated bike locks I never worry about driving with my e-bikes or parking to grab a bite to eat. East to use just slide it into hitch receiver and it automatically clicks into hitch with no pins needed. Assembled in 15 mins. Best purchase I ever made for my e-bikes. It makes preparing for a bike ride so much faster and easier.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have been using for 3 weeks. Needed a new rack as my girlfriend has an E-bike. Easy to put together and rides really smoothly and secure. Highly recommend this rack
