Debated on what style rack and decided that this was the best option for me. Being a mt. biker this was my choice for the ease of transporting. Mt bikes have all sorts of frame designs and shock placements. Buddy has a roof rack and seemed more of a pain than I wanted. Researched and decided on this. Putting it together wasn't bad. Not difficult to remove from the car. A little heavy but easier than my Thule Speedway. Another reason is the 2 bike add on which I also purchased. Works great. Also bought the locks to protect my investment. Real happy with everything.

I own a 2008 Santa Cruz Nomad and 2005 Jamis Dakar XLT 1.0. If anyone is familiar with these bikes they would recognize the frame design and know that any other type of rack system would simply not work. I previously had tried a Yakima and it just didn't cut it for me. The Thule 916 T2 system is excellent, very well built and easy to load your bikes. I highly recommend as the best bike rack out in the market today. Very well worth the price.

We have owned this rack for about two years now and it is amazingly easy to use. The rack isn't light, so expect to work a bit to get it onto your hitch, but once on, it is very convenient. If you have a rear hatch, you can fold the rack down and get things out of the back without removing your bikes (not that it would be hard to take them off and put them back on, putting both bikes on the rack takes about two minutes at the most.
