Review: Solid Rack, Well made - The HItch mount Rack Platform is sturdy and well made. You can easily make it into a one bike rack which I did. It is refreshing that Maxxhaul makes a bike rack that has a great price and really well made. The instructions are clearly terrible. Maxx Haul makes an easy project into a difficult one. They should start "over again". I am not the only person that find them stupidly unclear. Hire another person to take over that project. The wheel wells adjustment, the distance the wheel clamps are way from each other, is time consuming since they are almost impossible to slide. I had to take the wheel clamp off to move it. You need this adjusted perfectly because the bicycle will be more secure and balanced on the rack. You should probably make sure the air pressure in each tire is perfect since it does affect this adjustment. There is a bit of wiggle room so replacing the quick dissconect fitting, which hold the rack together, with regular bolts would make this rack absolutely solid. The great price and this solidly made rack makes this a very good deal.
Review: Good Product, Served its Purpose - This served its purpose for as long as I needed it to, holds up two relatively large bikes quite well. Survived 4 8 hour trips, mostly on the highway. Easy to use, especially with a helping hand. Seems to work just as intended, holds the bikes in place. I haven't had any safety issues with this item.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How easily does the fold down function work?**
A: It looks like the latest iteration of the product (Sep, 2020) no longer offers the fold down feature.

**Q: Is the hitch tightener required? I don’t mind the movement of the rack but I do mind installing and uninstalling the hitch tightener.**
A: I would not say it's required, but I would highly recommend using it to keep everything snug and solid. Simply carry a 3/4" wrench or socket and ratchet. It is easy to install and uninstall.

**Q: my bike has 1.85" wide tires, will they fit ?**
A: Yes!!! The inside dimension between the wheel bracket is 2 5/8", so your bike will fit.

**Q: Will this work with a 29” full suspension? Length I guess the main concern.**
A: Yea, really wonder why it says 20 - 26 inch wheels in the description. No reason larger wheels would not work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great value for the $ ** May require modification to prevent exhaust frying bike tire **
*by M***K on September 20, 2020*

I've used a home-made rack for 20 years but it required removing the front bike tire, which has become a chore. So I looked at the myriads of racks which don't require removing a tire, from $ to $$$$. The high-buck racks were WAY out of my pocketbook range so I concentrated on the low-end racks and decided to give this one a shot, and I'm quite happy with it. Sure it isn't perfect but with a bit of mods it suits my needs very well. * PROS: - Great buy for the money - Easy to assemble/disassemble - Easy to install/remove from vehicle - Easy to mount/dismount bike - Reasonably lightweight - Sturdy when bike is clamped TIGHT - Clamp provided to prevent hitch wobble (see photos for my fix) * CONS: - No locking mechanism - Tilt mechanism wobbles (see photos for my fix) - Depending on your vehicle the exhaust from tailpipe likely to heat tires unacceptably... (see photos for my fix) When I was removing my bike after a 10 mile drive I almost burned my hand when I bumped up against the metal rail, which is when I realized the rack was just above being in-line with the exhaust. Back home after the ride I checked the temperature of the bike tire and metal bar and they were 175° & 190°! Since the rack was too far out from the vehicle for my taste (Toyota 4Runner), I got the idea to cut the center bar and overlap it, in effect shortening it 4" and raising it 2". I bolted it together first to make sure it did what I wanted, and now that it works I will weld it together permanently. About the exhaust heating tires and rack bar issue... I would guess a LOT of people never realize this could be an issue (I never did because my custom rack was much higher) but it is worth checking the relationship between exhaust stream and bar/tire height before driving along distance, only to have a melted/deteriorated tire. I don't fault the rack at all for no locking mechanism because I never leave the bike unattended on the rack, it's always home to biking and back to home. If it HAD a locking mechanism it would cost more, which would reduce the value per $. (I do have a means to lock the wherever there is a removable pin so I actually CAN lock the bike to the rack while preventing rack disassembly as well, but again, I never leave it unattended so I don't bother.) I use other means to prevent hitch wobble (see photos for my fix) so I used the provided clamp to prevent wobble from the tilt mechanism instead, as it was more than I expected. Sure I won't be able to tilt the rack but the trade-off for no wobble AT ALL was worth giving up the tilt, which I won't use anyway. NOTE: Plan on taking extra time to figure out exactly where you want to clamp the tire baskets. I'd recommend facing the bike(s) with the chain on the OPPOSITE side from the rack so the knob doesn't interfere with the any part of the bike. Overall, knowing what I know now, I would buy this rack again and would highly recommend it to anyone who wants to keep the cost under $100.
