Saris Bike Porter Hitch 4-Bike

Comments:

I got a 1 1/4 inch hitch installed on my car by a welder recommended by our local bike shop. We then went to the bike shop to install the rack, and it wouldn't fit in the hitch. Despite trying other racks that did fit in the hitch, the bike shop insisted the problem was with the hitch and attempted to file it down. The rack still refused to enter the hitch. We took the car back to the welder who tried several racks that fit in the hitch, and in the end they had to file down the rack to make it fit. I am very disappointed in this rack; after spending over $500 I have a brand new hitch and rack, both of which have now been damaged by their vendors in an attempt to make them fit. I cannot recommend this rack.

I have had this rack for over 3 years. It is excellent as far as ease of use, versatility and how well it is built. However, i think there are 3 issues with the design that can improve this rack significantly: 1- If you are carrying just one bike and you want to lock the bike, you have to put it at the farthest position and that creates unnecessary torque. 2-The straps can fall off if they are not latched and these are not warranted for loss, so you end up having to buy replacement straps. 3- The 4 positions where the bikes are carried cannot be moved in or out on the arms so when you are carrying road bikes, you cannot shove all 4 closer to the car to reduce torque on the rack.

Strong and sturdy. I've had it for almost 2 years and I'm very happy with it.

I like to keep my bike rack on my car at all times during the nice weather. This bik porter allows me to still get in my trunk and not have to remove the rack. It is simple and easy to use.

This is an awesome bike rack that allows my entire family of 4 to adventure together. We can switch between my Ford Explorer and the wife's Mercedes Benz GL450. The attachment allows the rack to fit in either size Receiver hitch. Saris makes a great quality product that will last. Also, made in Merica! You can't beat that!!!!

Tried other bike racks and no one could come up with one that worked as well as this one. Never had any issues except for loosing my key and that was so easy to replace. Thanks saris.

Tilt feature allows for taking all 4 family member bikes, put the canoe on top, and still have access to the cooler in the back. Great rack!
