Quality

So far so good with the saris.

Works well, and very durable in all weather

The quality of this bike rack in general is worth the increase in price over the cheaper models.

I don't see shaking or movement of any kind with the bike or the carrier.

Price

The price is very nice, and saris is a very solid brand.

Love this product, well worth the price go saris bones

Competitiveness

Overall, a solid rack and worth the upgrade from the $50 competitors.

All in all, a really good rack at a much lower price than similar models from thule or yakima.

And hey, it's made in the usa!

It's safeeasy to useeasy to setuplooks spiffy on my cargetting 3 bikes on it is a little tough, but it will worki usually just put 2 on.
