This review is from: Hollywood Racks HR8500 Traveler 4-Bike Hitch Mount Rack (1.25 and 2-Inch Receiver) (Sports)

We finally found the perfect rack to haul our 4 bicycles from Snellville, GA., to our favorite riding place, Tampa, Florida. It is easy to use and safely carries the bicycles from bike trail to bike trail. The rack locks onto the car and the bicycles lock onto the rack so no worries about theft if we leave it all on the car.

This product is AWESOME!!!!! Well built, looks great, easy to set up and install. It took me about 10 minutes to put it up.

It its starts to rattle when you drive, all you have to do is tighten a little thumb screw on the back of the rack and the raddle is gone. I can easily fit two mountain bikes and one kids size bike. I think it would be hard to get another bike in there unless they are all road bikes. Overall this is a grea product and i highly recommended.

We took our bikes with us into the mountains and were very happy with the performance of this rack. The included rubber straps do a great job and they include more than you need just in case they break...which hasn't happened yet to us.

The threaded pin does a good job of stabilizing the rack and the fact that it fits smaller and larger trailer hitch receivers is a big plus because we can use it with different vehicles.

The fold down feature does indeed work when there are bikes on the unit - but be careful and do it very slowly.

It was extremely easy to assemble and get ready for a trip. Great product!
