What is the strap for that came with the bike rack?

Not sure. I used it to help secure the bike, keep the front wheel from wiggling, etc.

It's for strapping the bikes together so they don't thrash around on the back of your car/truck. It helps to prevent the pedals from gouging up the paint on the other bike as well as your vehicle. Personally I find bunjees work better.

hi...I believe it is for securing the bikes together once they are placed on the rack...we haven't used ours yet but think that is what it is for!

There are bungee-cord straps that hook the bag to your rack. Just be sure not to forget to strap them on...made that mistake twice and ripped the bungee cords off the bag once I started riding

The strap functions just like a conventional chain. You wrap it around the bike tubing, a bike stand, a tree, and you use the locking mechanisms to secure the ends of the strap to one another, just like a conventional chain lock. It's a brilliantly done piece of equipment and I recommend it without reservation.

No straps at all. This is a small bag for attachment to the bicycle handle bars.

Velcro straps. Works well in conjunction with the Tusk soft top. I have this on 3 RZR's and have not been disappointed.MP

It's a heavy weight canvas strap. I highly recommend this piece of equipment - it's been extremely helpful for me.

I am in the same situation (I have an Accord). I agree with everything you said and I'm planning to do the same thing. For added security you could put a stablizer strap on, like this: CURT 18050 Bike Rack Stabilizer Strap

Yakima hitch lock is compatible with hitch pint that comes with this bike rack.

I believe it does come with the strap but we don't use it. We bought the anti sway locking bolt and it does the job for us. Our bikes are very light. I also recommend a strap to stabilize the front wheel. We really like this rack. We bmx race and travel with our bikes 3 days a week.

The straps on mine are 7" long. My bike rack is 5" wide and it holds it securely, even when it's on the bike rack on the car or bus.

The bag comes with 4 straps which give you many attachment options on the back of the bike. I don't know what type of bike you have, but on mine the passenger seat only serves as a flat base for the bag to sit on.

Yes, the rack I received included two straps as well as a Velcro strap (I assume for the ice chest).

Rack and fender mounts means there is "mounts" for installing a rack or fenders. The bike doesn't come with them.

Just one - best strap I have. I use it for everything. Super strong and super stable. I will buy more. You can't find these in bike shops.
