About Allen Sports Deluxe 2-Bike Trunk Mount Rack
Overall Feedback:
88% positive
90% felt their bikes were secure, but 10% had concerns
I feel secure about the product as the bolts on the apparatus are difficult to loosen.
It is not safe to leave the car out of sight as the product has zero security and anyone could take the bikes and the car away.
I would not trust my MTB on a long trip with only 3 security straps on the rack.
I have to plan to McGiver my bike lock somehow as there are no security features.
87% found it easy to load and unload their bikes
I found the bike rack easy to install and use.
It is easy to put on and take off.
It's very easy to put on the car and go.
Putting the bikes in the rack is extremely easy. There are receivers for two bikes on the rack, with integrated tie downs. Just drop the bike frame into the receivers, pull the straps through, and flip the little buckles. No bungees or additional straps are necessary.

88% were satisfied with the compatibility, but 12% faced issues
I want to warn you that the rack is not compatible with vans and is meant to be used with conventional sedans.
It would be great if the rack was compatible with women's bikes.
The bike rack was not compatible with my 2010 Toyota Corolla, despite the manufacturer's claim.
90% found the rack stable, but 10% experienced wobbling
One bike is extremely stable when used with the rack, but it's unclear if it's stable for two bikes.
Throughout the trip, I only needed to make some adjustments and tighten the straps every 600 miles to keep the rack stable.
I have driven at 75 mph with my bike mounted and have complete confidence in the stability of this rack. I have no worries even on a bumpy road.
After using the bike rack for six months, it has become increasingly unstable.
87% found the installation process straightforward, but 13% encountered difficulties
The installation process takes less than five minutes.
The instructions relied on unhelpful illustrations to depict the proper orientation.
The paper instructions are unclear and the video is not helpful.
My main issue with this item is that it covers the license plate and has very little flexibility to place it differently to avoid covering the plate.
87% liked the durable construction
The bicycle-car-rack held up fine for highway driving and is still steady after nearly 700 miles.
