Best rack for the money.  DO NOT use impact tool to install lag bolts!

This really is the best deal for tire racks.  NOTE: Make sure to install the lag bolts with a hand ratchet wrench, not an electric or air powered impact gun.  I used my impact on two of the lag bolts and sheared them in half (5/16" x 3-1/2" lag bolts from Home Deepo).  I had to redrill new holes in the rack, new holes in the wall and stud, and install new lag bolts with my hand ratchet wrench.  You'll notice in many reviews people are complaining about the hardware, but the real issue is likely the installation method.  I'm extremely happy with this tire rack, and going to buy more now that I've found more wall space in my garage.

This rack is awesome. Kuat has some really high quality racks but have always been just beyond what I've wanted to spend. After investing significant money into good quality bikes it seemed silly to strap them to the Walmart rack and have them flop around. I wanted a good platform style but at a good price.

The transfer 2 was a welcome addition in the price range. You can tell your getting a quality product when you decide to keep the assembly tools it ships with as a part of your tool box.

My only issue is I wish it was a normal hitch pin instead of a threaded pin so a regular lock could be used.

Pictures below show it mounted to a 2002 Ford Explorer Sport.

Very good rack for the money. I've had/used several racks and this one is a very good compromise between price and function. The platform style is the only way to go but the options are all $350+ it seems.
This rack holds your bike firmly in place. It is not build the way the higher end Kuat rack is but it is very strong in the right places. The tilt pivot is steel and has NO play. The frame work is well built. The difference is in the clamp hinges. The higher end units have machined metal work where this one has some heavy duty large plastic parts. I feel they are more than adequate for the job.
I would buy this again and trust it for time to come.

I truly like this basket. Nice design, simple to use.
To install on your rack:
1. Throw away the hardware they send!
2. Buy 3] 1 inch worm drive hose clamps.
3. Use the hose clamps to attach to your rack.

I got 5 clip gizmos, 3 screws and 2 nuts. All that junk is thin unusable clips, poorly manufactured screws with burrs that made it nearly impossible to get the  nuts they sent on to the screws.

The basket is nice, folds up snug to the rack when not in use, does not rattle folded. Does rattle some unfolded and unloaded but not when loaded.

So buy the basket, recycle the mounting crap and use 3 hose clamps  and it will install quick and never come loose.

Wow!! I really love this bike rack. It is amazing and for the price you can't find anything like this. I just used it this weekend with 3 bikes (full capacity) and it worked just as weel as all those expensive ones you can find. If you are in the market for a hitch bike rack this is the one you shoudl buy. Easy instructions and easy installation, it took me like 5 to 10 min to have it all tighten up and ready to work.

Great rack. It feels very sturdy. I like that it has several upgrades over the comparable Titan short rack. The plastic j-cups and the two different size pull-up bars are awesome. This thing is perfect for a basement gym setup. If you are any taller than 5'7" you will hit your head walking out of the rack. But that is sort of implied given the fact that it is only 72" tall with a pull-up bar on the front. The directions a slightly confusing even though the setup is pretty simple. If you rely on the picture vs. the directions themselves then you'll be fine. My only real complaint is that it comes with about 20 hex and 8 carriage bolts. It would have been nice if all of the bolts were carriage bolts. Since the carriage bolts secure themselves, you don't need two wrenches to fasten them. The hex bolts require two wrenches (provided), but it is a pain. That being said, it is a one time inconvenience so I am not going to knock a star off for that.

That may sound like a lot of negativity but it's really just nitpicking. Overall it's a great rack for a very fair price. Knowing then what I know now I wouldn't hesitate to purchase this again.

Don't fear the gripper! If you own a pick up truck and your bike won't allow removing the front wheel or you just don't want to do that, this is the rack for you!

I looked almost every possible option for putting bikes in the back of my 4WD 2008 Tundra Crew Max before finding this one. I was ready to rig something up of my own design. I had already spent hundreds of dollars on solutions but none have been quite so simple or satisfying as the Inno Velo Gripper. The reviews I read on Amazon had me concerned but I am so glad I took the risk and ordered these.

I have a bike addiction - mostly mountain bikes but that doesn't stop me from riding urban, road and comfort bikes in a number of places throughout California and Arizona. Unless I remove the front wheel, the bed of my truck is too short for any of my bikes. However, recently my wife and I got new mountain bikes which due to their unique fork design, completely eliminate using the previous system I had - which required removing the front wheel. So, we started using our trailer hitch bike rack to transport them. What a pain!

Don't get me wrong, a trailer hitch rack is sufficient for short hauls but it's not great for off-road adventures or long laborious slogs across the highways and byways of our great nation. If it fails, the bikes are toast.

While researching alternatives, I stumbled upon the Inno Velo Gripper and liked the concept. I decided to give them a shot and ordered them, knowing that for my Tundra rail system, I'd need the RT-202 version. I ordered two sets. Shockingly enough, they arrived the very NEXT DAY! (Thanks Amazon PRIME!) I came home from work and excitedly opened the box. Everything checked out. With all parts present and accounted for, I stepped out into the triple digit heat to inspect my rail system and see how the installation might work. I had no intention of actually installing them but after seeing how simple it was, I went to work. In about 5 minutes (no exaggeration) I had one set completely installed. I never even opened the instructions!

My wife came out to see what I was doing and saw I had already fitted my bike in the rack. "Wait what?!" she exclaimed. Yeah, it was THAT easy. If you're struggling with installation, you may want to stop and re-think it. The rectangular "bolt" slides inside the c-channel of the rail. You have to slip the plastic end cap off your rail to acheive this. It's made to do this! The rest is simple but you may need to wedge your finger (or a screwdriver) behind the rectangle bolt to allow the screw threads to meet and start in the bolt. When you begin installation on your set, this statement will make sense. You just need a small amount of support to push the rectangle bolt forward enough inside the channel for the threads to catch. I did this with my finger.

I put it to the test right away. On my truck (because it's a short bed) I have to leave the tailgate down with bikes inside. No big deal. The bike stayed upright and secure as I took the truck over some curbs, whipped through Los Angeles rush hour traffic and swiftly chose a flowy line through traffic back home. What? You mad bro?

I have every confidence the Inno Velo Gripper will serve my needs well in the months ahead. It solves a tremendous problem for me, allowing the bikes to ride securely and upright in the bed of my truck without removing the front wheel. Locking, securing and removing the bikes is fast and easy. It can even be done without climbing into the truck bed. It is not perfect (it doesn't fit my Cannondale Lefty Trigger 29er 1 PBR Fork perfectly but it's good enough) but its a far better solution then I could find anywhere else.

Overall, I'm very pleased. I bet you will be, too.

This storage rack has excellent build quality and the price was at least $100.00 less than I would have paid at a home improvement store.  It will require at least two people to install and you should be a competent DIY'er to install it correctly.  The delivery box weighs a ton, so make sure you have someone around to help lift it when it's delivered to you door.  The first thing I did was to open the box and separate all the parts to see what was involved and thoroughly review the instructions.  Most importantly, you'll want to make sure that you can locate the ceiling trusses and measure them to see that they have a 24" spacing.  At the time, the first truss spacings I measured were NOT 24" and I was about to install  boards that spanned the trusses and attach the rack to them.  However, after additional checking, I did find some trusses that were perfect for the 4 foot rack (48") and from that point on, the installation went smoothly.  Very happy with this storage rack!

If you are looking for a rack that is not going to break the bank and get the job done then look no more. For the price I couldn't find anything else on the market. I use mine to carry a large cargo carrier. There is not that much wind noise with them on either. Now I must warn you, if you are buying this expecting a Thule or other top of the line racks you are a fool. This is a basic entry level rack. The covers are plastic-seem a little cheap, and the locks feel cheap too. But the actual aluminum bars seem to be top notch-at least to me. The fit on my 2012 Honda Civic sedan is perfect. I have nothing bad to say about this rack. Best bang for the buck I think.!

Great rack for the money.  I never use my hitch mounted rack anymore.  Great on flatback SUV's and vans.

Disclosure: I purchased this product a Pep Boys but feel Amazon reviews are a great tool for deciding wether or not one purchases a product. Thus, I am creating a review.

This Receiver rack is made by the same company, but is branded several different names while retaining the same part number. I happened to buy the "Navigator" branded receiver rack. Install was straight forward, directions clear, and took about 30m to assemble. The rack itself was very stable/sturdy, however when the rack was in the receiver it had a lot oif play. If you put weight on one side, the opposite side would raise about 2.5 - 3in and vice versa. Sure, there are ways to make it not wobble as much, but the rack should not move that much to begin with. Plus one should not have to do any extra work to make a product do the job it should be doing in the first place.

I mean, there is no margin of error and if there is, it should be less than 3"... half an inch to 1 inch would be *acceptable*. This is not.

For this reason I am returning the receiver rack and looking for one with a lower tolerance.

This is a rock solid bike rack that's easy to install and easy to load. It takes a minute or two to mount the unit on the car and securely mount 2 bikes. I couldn't have come up with a better one and the price was great. I bought the lockable hitch pin too although the hitch pin that comes with it has a hole you could use a small padlock in. For those who have commented that the rack and their bikes move around a lot, make sure the threaded hitch pin is done up tight and if you have a 2" hitch receiver make sure the 2 adapter brackets are installed and done up tightly.

I looked at multiple wall mount racks before I purchased this one.  The TrippLite model has several advantages over others:
- competitively prices
- shipps completely assembled and ready to use out of the box
- low profile compared to some swing-out models
- nice glass door
- locking swing and locking front door with 2 keys for each lock (4 total)

Disadvantage:
- buyers should be aware that the rear of the rack is mostly a solid piece of steel except for a few keyhold slots for the lag screws
- if you plan to pull cabling thru the back of the cabinet and not thru the top or bottom, then you'll need to do some modifications to the rear of the rack to pass cabling thru it.
- the front of the rack does not seperate from the rear swing. You can't just mount a light weight wall plate to the wall and then lift and hang main rack later. It's done all in one fell swoop. This means you probably won't be able to load up your rack with equipment and shelves first. Instead, you'll need to add the equipment to the rack after it's wall mounted.

Otherwise, this rack rocks.  A quality build, easy to work with, not too awefully heavy.

Solid rack, quick to assemble, works great

PRO:
-Semi-Portable: flat-pack design makes it easy to transport.  Great for deployments that require occasional moves, say, using a rack in a rental property.
-Wheels: casters are strong and roll relatively well even with hundreds of pounds of gear installed into the rack.
-Very strong: total weight supported is much greater than should ever actually happen, meaning it shouldn't break itself during normal use.
-Cable Management: hooks are included.  Note that they are optional, because they are pretty ugly and might not work with your spatial constraints, but it's nice that they're available and optional.
-Markings: each Rack Unit is clearly marked, numbered, and aligned.  Makes installations much easier to coordinate between multiple people.
-EIA holes, fits modern standard computer equipment.  Can be adapted to support older circular or threaded hole equipment.
-Hardware: a nice bag of Cage Nuts and M5 Rack Screws are included, so you won't immediately need to order some.
-Tools included, so you don't need to have any on hand.
-Adjustable: depth can be set to match your gear.  Manual includes suggested configurations for various depths, and those suggestions appear accurate.
-Zero-U: sides have sufficient depth for 1U equipment to be installed in "Zero-U" / 0U placement.  There are no brackets, for such an installation, but some products include their own.

CON (really just nit-picks):
-assembly requires at least 2 people to be done safely.  Duh.
-I would recommend power tools rather than the provided tools.  This is mainly for torquing the structural bolts on the corners.
-no optional top, sides, or bottom.  This is always the case with racks that have adjustable depth, and should come as no surprise.
-included screws have very wide washers and don't necessarily fit well next to one another.

Great for the price. Made in China but a decent gauge stainless.  I had to alter the vertical brackets because I only had 8" of clearance above window. I had to cut, file, and bend them so be prepared to have a vise, dolly, ball ping hammer and other metal tools of you wish to do the same. Most people will be able to fit this where they want. Also be sure to mount into the stubs or a "header" above a window with LAG BOLTS. Predrill for lag bolts 2/3 the size of the bolt shank.  Do nut use screws that come with it. Do not mount to just the drywall with drywall anchors.  It's possible in theory to not use the brackets if you use the lag bolts and a thick washer as I did, and drill a second hole in the center and add another lag bolt or heavy screw. By doing this it was able to hold all the cookware you see in my photos without bowing down.  Well made rack; would buy again!

As the title expresses, this rack was extremely easy to install on my Trek 7.2 FX.  I also got a chance to use the quick release rail system with the Topeak trunk bag, and I was impressed.  The bag is easy to get on and off, yet it holds secure when traveling.

The reason I only gave 4 stars:  Topeak includes Nylon Insert Lock nuts instead of a standard nut.  This stopped the nut from going all the way down the bolt, allowing the bolts to slide a bit on the brackets.  When I finally got the right type of nut after a trip to the hardware store, the rack is now secure and won't be sliding anywhere.

Do yourself a favor:  when ordering on Amazon also order a set of 4 hex or jam nuts to save yourself a trip.  The proper size escapes me, but I know I was able to find the proper metric size at Lowe's without any issue.
