You get what you pay for. This is an exceptionally built and easy to use hitch rack. Looks great and loads and unloads extremely fast. Zero concern about my bikes falling off. If you live in an area where stealing is a problem, I’d throw on an additional thicker lock for the piece of mind.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great design for modern MTB

Rack is easy to use, lightweight, and works for modern longer MTBs. Also because of the way the rack holds the tires, it reduces fatigue on the bike frame. Only downsides are weight limit of 45lbs per a bike and will not work for kids bikes. I have been using the rack for over month on two longer trips and daily for work.
I have been using the Helium XT bike rack for a little over a month and I love it. Loading and unloading bikes is simple and secure. This rack is extremely light weight compared to other racks I’ve had in the past making installation a breeze. I am very impressed with this product.
I needed a good rack for transporting my carbon fiber triathlon bike. This rack is better than I anticipated it would be. Very solid - no movement at all. Great locking features built in. I highly recommend this rack.
This track is super light and amazingly stable. The expanding receiver insert does an amazingly job both locking and stabilizing the rack. All of my bikes, road, mountain and hybrid mount in seconds. The built in cable locks are quickly accessed and put in to use. There's a very good reason I have three friends with this identical rack.
I purchased this rack because I didn't like how heavy the T2 Pro XTR was. I also like the dual arms to secure my bike to the rack. I have used only one of the bike trays and left the other tray in the box in order to reduce the weight on the rack even more. This rack is very easy to move around and secure to the car.
I have found this bike rack to be lighter and easier to put my bike in a secure rack while riding on bumpy dirt roads. Love this easy to use secure rack
I would recommend this to a friend!

LOVE this rack! What a joy the ease of use is. I can leave it on the vehicle with the bikes secured and still open the back. It’s a beautiful thing!
