  • very sturdy but a little hard to get off.
Color: Black
you have to either push your thumb very hard at an angle or the tool it comes with to unhook it to get it off the bike. I wish it had a more easy release, but aside from that. sturdy, strong, and works well.

  • Making bike transportation so much easier
Color: Black
This made it possible to mount my step-through hybrid bicycle on Thule bike rack. Very easy to install and very sturdy.

  • So far, so good.
Color: Black
My wife's bicycle is a step-through, so getting it loaded on the rack was a pain. This has made my life infinitely easier, and it has held up to the hour of use I've put it through so far. That said, it feels a little flimsy, and I'm worried it might fail someday. If that happens, I'll update this review. ... show more

  • It does work
Color: Black
When lifting the bike, the hook around the seat can easily slip out. I fixed the problem by twisting a wire adround the hook, and used a spring to keep it seated. Then when you lift, you don't have to hold onto the hood.
