Question: Does it flatten for easy storage? I have limited storage space in my house.
Document: I've owned quite a few trunk-mount bike racks. Here are my thoughts on the Allen Sports Premier 2-Bike Trunk Rack attached to a 2012 Mini Cooper:POSITIVE1. Light Weight: This rack is significantly lighter than other racks I've owned. It's a lot easier for one person to attach the rack when it's less cumbersome.2. Storable: The Allen Sports Rack folds flat for storage. I have it hanging on a hook when not in use and it barely takes up an space.3.
This is a lot sturdier than most bike racks I've had. The straps are super easy to adjust and it folds out easily as well. It's folds very flat/small for storage, too, which is great. I did find that it's a bit tricky to get on my car. I have a small SUV/Crossover with a hatchback. Strapping it on the tops was no problem, but getting both side straps in just the right spot so that it doesn't sit a little crooked took some doing.
The bike rack is solid. The tubes are heavy and stiff. The rack attaches quickly and easily to the back of our Subaru Forester. The straps hold bikes well, though they are a bit difficult to pull tight. My only complaint is that the rack, which ships flat, will not easily flatten for storage. Apparently Allen Sports doesn't think we should be able to fold the rack back up as it takes three hands and a couple of flat screwdrivers to fold it for storage.
When not in use, it folds flat for easy storage. The weight is considerable - I'm not very good with estimating weight and don't have a weighing machine handy, but it feels like about 20 lbs.With the straps tightened, it is very secure and I didn't detect any movement. I didn't try driving more than 10 miles with this, so I can't say if it will hold up after a long road trip.If it fits your car, this is probably the easiest solution among 2 others I've explored.
I was able to secure a ladies bike by turning the foot to the side and strapping in into place, although the instructions recommend buying an optional accessory to hold the ladies bike more securely.From a design standpoint, I find the "unfolding" sub-frame design to be very utilitarian, and easy to use. Plus, it is very compact for storage or transport.Not so Good:The lower frame is designed such that on my Ford Escape, the "feet" rested exactly on my license plate.
This bike rack does work as described. It was fairly easy to install on my Malibu. However a few restrictions make this a rack of limited usefulness.For my husband and I, our bikes--a nicer Raleigh and a Huffy--aren't total clunkers, but they each weigh 40 lbs., thus exceeding the weight limit for this rack.
Absolutely love this bike rack. Takes very little time to attach to the car and detach when needed. Folds up small and compact for easy storage. I've only used it for one bike so far, but haven't had any issues with clearance or anything else. For the price, it's the best thing out there.
If you're in your single or couple phase with no kids, this is a good example of a quality trunk rack. When not in use, I had ample space to store preconfigured so it was fast to remount. If you're buying ahead of time, make sure you configure and mount it as soon as you get so you can return it if need be if for some reason it's not vehicle compatible. It's solid and sturdy and seems like it will hold up to the elements.
The old style rack assumed a set of bungee cords would secure bikes where they rested best. Here, the positions are fixed: far inward (and possibly too close to the rear bodywork on a hatchback) and far outward, where a single bike would hang and sway out in space. I rarely carry two bikes, but that is the task for which these holders are optimally positioned.
This is a decent carrier but I think it is a little aggravating to put on the car.It does fold up to save space and holds the bikes securely, but plan on a couple of extra straps to anchor the fork and prevent the bike from swinging on stops and starts. There is no provision for either movement provided with the carrier.The bars are spaced a little wide and that makes my carbon bike hard to load.
Answer: yes
