Reviews for Quadratec 2 Bike Folding Bike Rack for 2" Receiver Hitch
I really like this bike carrier. It is built solid. Easy to assemble as well as attach and detach. The only reason I did not give it five stars is that I cannot use my receiver lock. However I understand because the bolt that is supplied is used to prevent the carrier from rattling. Anyone that is wondering I have a 33 x 12.50 spare tire and it clears it. Anything bigger might be an issue.
Installs/removes easily. Need adapter for y-frame bicycle
Like the bike rack but could only give it three stars due to an issue. Just a warning to inspect the rubber straps routinely. I had the bike rack for 3 1/2 months and one of the straps let go while on the highway causing the other to unstrap from the stress. Lot of damage to my mountain bike bouncing on the highway when it let go but lucked out that no one hit the bike or was injured. I inspected the strap after the incident and it looked like it just split in one part. Didn't notice any issue when I strapped the bike on and would have noticed a split so examine them closely before use.
Love my new 2-bike rack - it worked perfectly on my 2019 JL but it came with one of the bike cradles broken (one of the strap receivers was cracked off :-(
Not very durable. Used for 2 seasons before replacing with higher quality rack. Hanging mount is tough on bike frame … I recommend a tray mount style rack.
This rack is not worth it unless you only ever want to use one bike on it. I was able to squeeze a second bike on there but ended up scratching the hell out of both bikes. Then the straps broke because of so much tension on the bikes themselves. Definitely regret my purchase.
It was what I was looking for except that I got a box and bike rack that looked like it was dragged all the way to my house. And looked like it was a return that someone sent back to y’all and now I’m stuck with it the hardware looked ripped open and missing parts. Thanks a lot for a great Christmas gift.
So to make this work I would need to buy a hitch extender to avoid interference with my spare (285/70/17). It's supposed to be "oversized tire ready"...not so much. Also, the clips/straps are for round tube bikes. So I had to purchase the y frame adapter. Easy fix right? Nope...doesn't fit the standard seat tube on my 2020 Trek. Unfortunately I was out of town immediately after the purchase of the rack and missed the generous 30 day return window so I'm stuck with it. Looks like lots of happy reviews here. Wish mine was too.
