User questions & answers

Question:	what is the pin size
Answer:	The hole on the rack for the hitch pin is 1/2". This is designed to work with the No Wobble Bolt that is included with the rack. This bolt works to securely tighten the rack when installed on the vehicle and keeps the rack from moving during use.
Question:	how do you put a womens bike on this rack
Answer:	The brackets that the straps are attached to rotate around the rack arms, making it fairly easy once you figure out the best position. I actually had 3 women's bikes on the rack with no problems. The straps were on the diagonal bar and the vertical bar below the seat and it was very tight, no movement at all. No issues with women's bikes at all here.
Question:	What's the best way to lock bikes to this rack? I've never used a hitch rack before
Answer:	If you are talking about leaving the bikes, we purchased the doberman lock and secured the bikes and lock to the straight pole on back, we have two to interweave between the bike wheels and the pole. We also brought a locking pin for the hitch. Never had a problem, we have left them on there while down the shore, on bike trails while we walk or go to get something to eat.
Question:	What's the distance between the two carry arms (the ends of the arms
Answer:	On the current version (2016 and newer) hitch racks, the carry arms are 11.5" apart on center. This translates to an outside dimension of approximately 13"

About Allen Sports

Dick Allen (pictured left in 1972) started Allen Sports in his garage in 1967. Since its founding, the company has been committed to producing the highest-quality, easiest-to-use bike racks and bicycle related products on the market. Dick, a onetime aerospace engineer, opened Allen Sports after building a prototype bike carrier in his Lincoln, Massachusetts shop in his free time. The first ever trunk-mounted bicycle carrier made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding) was refined on weekend excursions to Cape Cod. Shortly afterward, Allen took his design to market, and by 1971 had established a national presence for his product.

Today, the family owned company operates four warehouses nationally, six factories abroad, and sells products in countries around the world including USA, Mexico, Canada, and China.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the tilt angle? Does it tilt 90 degrees completely flat, or 45 degrees, etc
Answer:	Yes. Adult and children. My bike frame is different than my husbands, my bike sits differently but is secure.
Question:	Is anyone else having trouble fully opening their 2015 F-150 Tailgate with this attached
Answer:	It depends on how you attach the rack. The bottom hook can be placed either on the bottom of the bumper, which would prohibit you from opening the trunk, or you can hook it on the bottom of the trunk, which will allow you to access the trunk when the bikes are removed.
Question:	Just received and has a lot of play up and down and to sides. Anyone have experience with this
Answer:	I think someone could most likely just steal it right off the car. You could wrap a different strap from the bottom to the top of the bike rack through the inside of your car if you were worried about theft.
Question:	does this rack hold a women's bikes
Answer:	Bikes with a non-horizontal top tube are all a bit different with their angles, so you have to move the bike around and see what works. Suffice it to say, your wheels will not be equidistance from the ground, but if the bike is stable, it is stable. Some newer bikes with shocks also have nontraditional top tubes. One good alternative is to spend a little bit of money and have a hitch attached to the car. I have a small hatchback. With a hitch, I can use a bike rack with wheel holders.

User questions & answers

Question:	I ride bike fridays which have a tire size of 16 inch will this rack work on them
Answer:	This fits any size of bike. I had two 26 inch mountain bikes, a 16 inch, and a 12 inch kids bike at the same time.
Question:	There's a discrepency in the measurments :42x27x3 or 62x27x3 which is right
Answer:	Without going out to measure it my husband says it's the 62x27x3
Question:	Will a downhill bike fit this rack with a 2.5 tires
Answer:	i would say no.......and yes.......the platform itself is plenty large, but the stabilizers that pivot up to slide onto the tires will be too narrow. They were too narrow for my mountain 29er which does have fairly fat cross country tires(2.2?). However: i was able to expand these stabilizers wider by bending them open to make them 'fit', and now it works fine. You probably could do the same, although you'll have to widen more than i did. i was able to do it by hand(cuz i only needed a little bit more space) but you might have to exert a little more force for the 2.5s. i feel that it would be possible.
Question:	How have you prevented the bikes from rubbing together? My wife and I have nice road bikes and the kids have craiglist specials
Answer:	I have used this with 4 bikes at a time. Alternate the bikes, i.e. handlebars left, handlebars right. That way the seats and handlebars touch, but nothing painted can touch. One modification I made is that the hole for the pin inthe hitch receiver seemed way too close to the end of the tube. This had the rack sticking out about 10" more thannecessary. I drilled new holes (5/8" dia.) further in. It's not absolutely necessary to do this, but I feel it added tothe stability. The rack is very sturdy. We use 4 mountain bikes (heavy) and drive on rough back roads. The tire holders hold the bikes quite firmly in place. They provide a ratchet strap to cinch them down. They stay solidly in place. The rack is a little on the heavy side, but it's made of solid strong steel.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where was it made
Answer:	That depends on if your BMW X3 has a standard 2” receiver. As I recall from the short time I owned one of these, I think it came with an adapter for 1” up to 2”. But to be honest, the straps that held the bike into place sucked so badly that I only used it twice. I can’t recall if I threw mine out or if it is gathering rust somewhere, if I could find mine, you could have it for free! I ended up buying Swagman Hitch that holds two bikes and offers three points of contact. Please note, I am not selling anything, just telling you what I bought and mounted to my Chrysler 300. This hitch was terrible, at least for me.
Question:	One of the straps on my rack got torn. What do I need to buy to replace it
Answer:	I’m not sure. But I will say, this rack is junk. I used mine twice, hated it, almost lost my bikes off of it, and the rack quickly found it’s way to the trash. I ended up buying a Swagman rack that has three points of contact on the bike, each tire is cradled and strapped in, and a padded locking hook is placed over the center of the bike. That rack I believe would lean forward enough for your 98 Suburban.
Question:	Is there a hitch lock that works with this bike rack? I do not want to drill out the holes to enlarge them
Answer:	No, with the straps you can secure it even more. Just make sure the screws are on tight and from time to time tighten them again. Good luck
Question:	How long is the stem that holds the bikes (i.e. the one where the straps are) on a 4 bike rack carrier
Answer:	no, sorry, only the bike rack

User questions & answers

Question:	What does "tilt back for easy lift-gate access" mean? will it tilt back to lift an suv hatch
Answer:	I have a Chevy Cruze and have a substantial clearing when I raise my trunk
Question:	Does this sway back and forth while you drive with bikes on it
Answer:	Yes. Mi,e is new it does sway back and forth. It appears some people answered this about putting the bolt in. The automatic quick release ones do not have a bolt that you put in. It has the locking mechanism on it that is supposed to expand and keep it from wobbling but I can't see it's doing that. Disappointed in that as it makes me feel like it's not entirely safe going down the street. Thought it would be easier to use because it says no tools required to put it on the hitch. But it doesn't seem to be holding as well as the standard ones you palpable through
Question:	will this rack work with an external spare tire on the back of the car; Toyota RAV
Answer:	Do not buy any product from this company. We had a 4 bike rack. The frame broke off while we were driving and we lost all 4 bikes. Company would not stand behind warranty
Question:	I read one review that the person had trouble adapting the hitch to a 2" receiver. Has anyone else had that problem
Answer:	It comes with an adapter for the 2 inch receiver and am currently using it on my truck with no problems at all.

About Allen Sports

Dick Allen (pictured left in 1972) started Allen Sports in his garage in 1967. Since its founding, the company has been committed to producing the highest-quality, easiest-to-use bike racks and bicycle related products on the market. Dick, a onetime aerospace engineer, opened Allen Sports after building a prototype bike carrier in his Lincoln, Massachusetts shop in his free time. The first ever trunk-mounted bicycle carrier-made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding) - was refined on weekend excursions to Cape Cod. Shortly afterward, Allen took his design to market, and by 1971 had established a national presence for his product.

Today, the family owned company operates four warehouses nationally, six factories abroad, and sells products in countries around the world including USA, Mexico, Canada, and China.

User questions & answers

Question:	how much does this hitch weigh--I see this question before but no one gave an acceptable answer. thx.--Carol
Answer:	The product info says 39.1 lbs. It seems at least that and is fairly unwieldy.
Question:	Does anyone have a good secure locking system for the bikes
Answer:	We use our bike locks thru the bike wheels, bike frame and thru the mount . The only problem is that you must use the threaded pin that comes with the rack to secure the rack in the receiver hitch... Wish I could use the lock I have for the rest of my trailers/etc to secure the whole thing to the truck.
Question:	I read there is a lock available for the hitch, however is there a locking system for the bikes
Answer:	There is not a locking system for the bikes. The bikes are kept securely in place by the vertical bar with removable braces at the top. The bar will not fold down without the hitch key lock but the bikes could be removed by lifting over this bar. An additional bike lock would be recommended.
Question:	Can you buy the 2-bike rack and then an add-on for
Answer:	You can buy the four set up and then only assemble the first half (2) until you want to connect the second half later in life.
