This is an excellent video. As a fellow RU-vidr, I am very impressed with the simple instructions...and in 5 minutes! The build quality and design are outstanding. Thank you!
This is probably one of the best videos I've ever seen on fully loading a bike rack. This young lady clearly demonstrated how to load a heavy ebike onto the rack closest to the car. Just about every video I've seen on RU-vid shows a person loading a light racing bike onto the tray *farthest* away from the vehicle and then say, "See how easy it is?" They never show how to load a heavy bike while getting around the vertical aluminum post. The one big thing that I don't like about this rack design is that there are wayyy too many ways to steal the parts off it! A few twists of the knob and off go the wheel trays! Get a 17mm ratchet and remove the nuts and off go the square wheel tubes! Get a 19mm wrench and off goes the main beam from the hitch tube! Sorry, but this is the day and age that we unfortunately live in. This rack needs to be a wee bit tougher to steal. *
Don't see the purpose of the lock at the hitch if one only needs a 19 mm or 3/4 in wrench to unfasten the “main beam” (as the video calls it). Nothing is securing it. Could be missing something but to me seems like a weak point, and just leave the “hitch tube” (as the video calls it) on the vehicle. Yes, I know it's heavy, but not as heavy as the entire unit.
