    Great rack - Holds bikes for the entire family.
    Overall a very nice rack.For reference, this is my first Superclamp style rack and I'm switching from an old Saris hanging style rack. Getting four bikes onto a hanger was way too difficult.So first off, I'm taking away one star because I received a returned product. At first glance I couldn't tell as it was repackaged nicely, however upon unpacking I noticed that the parts were not sealed in bags as one would expect and I was also missing one of the two included keys. During assembly, I realized I was missing 3 of the little nuts that the tire baskets require to fasten then down. A quick run to the local hardware store fixed that issue, but it was quite an annoyance. The part that goes into the hitch was also obviously inserted before. I know it may not seem fair to deduct a star on the product due to the seller, but I believe it is part of the overall buying experience on Amazon.Onto the product itself:Assembly was fairly easy. I think if I had all necessary parts, it could be done in under 30 minutes.My bikes that I am loading are as follows:1) 27.5 x 2.8 Adult Mountain bike2) 26" Woom 63) 24" Woom 54) 20" Woom 4It took me a few tried to find the right fit. I ended up with the 26" closest to the car, then the 27.5, then the 20", finally the 24". Be sure to mind the stickers that tell you which side the front tire faces. No issues fitting the 2.8" wide tires in the baskets.One of the biggest issues I have is that I can't really securely fit the 24" and 20" together. I had to remove the left mounting arm so that I could place one of the tire baskets on the inside of the arm. They typically go on the outside of the arm i guess. But once I placed the basket inside of the arm, I was able to get the 20" to rest securely in the baskets. The problem is the arm that secures the top of the tire doesn't go down far enough to secure the 20" tire while securing the 24" tire. I think if I had two 20" bikes that were the same size, I might be able to angle the arm out enough so that it might hold. So, workaround is to just strap down the tires and use bungee cords to secure the 20". But given that it has the 24" on the outside, I don't see it coming loose.Once I had the bikes loaded, I tried lowering the rack so I could access the trunk. And let me say, wow, this thing gets heavy. There's definitely a technique to successfully lowering this thing. On my first try I injured myself a bit, so be careful. I would suggest holding the top fastening arms and not the bikes.Lifting it back up wasn't too bad once I figured out to hold the arms of the frame and not the bikes.I will say that having a mechanism that clicks into place once it reaches a certain level is very nice. It's not necessary to hold it up and insert a pin like my old rack.When the rack was in the lowered position, the trunk was easily accessed. There was plenty of clearance between the bikes and the trunk to open the trunk.Another minor annoyance was that one of the locks pulled completely out. There is a small catch that keeps the locking housing connected to the frame. Apparently they used a wrong side housing. I called Saris customer service and they said they would send me a new one in a few days. This must have slipped through QC.The locks that are included are nice, but as others have mentioned, would be nice if they were just 6 inches longer. Don't forget to lock the first two bikes once they are on because it's really hard to access the lock once the second set of bikes are on.The straps that hold down the tires are a little annoying. They tend to flap back so when you put the bike in, the tire goes on top of the strap. You then have to lift the bike again to get the strap out.Another issue I have is that I can't fold up the rack when it's empty. My hitch is 3.5 inches in from the bumper. If it were maybe an inch or two further out, it wouldn't be a problem.Overall I am happy with the rack. It's very sturdy and seems like it will hold firm. It is a chore to load and unload the bikes, but I don't think there's any way around that. It also takes up quite a bit of space in the garage.I'd give the product itself 5 stars, but again, minus one for receiving a returned item.I'll update the review once I take it out for a trip, but that's it for now.

    We bought this rack after researching a few different brands. We needed one to carry four bikes and wanted a good quality, sturdy one. We didn't care about cost and wanted the best thing we could find.

    When it arrived, it was missing one of the four bolts for attaching the cross bars. I called Saris and they mailed me one free of charge.

    This is the first bike rack we've owned. It is quite heavy, but from reading online reviews of other four-bike racks, this one appears to be one (if not THE) most light-weight ones out there. I was impressed that it can hold a significant amount of weight (60pounds/each bike on the first bar and 30pounds/each bike on the second bar). So, it's perfect for our family of four bikes.

    It is pretty easy to get the bikes loaded in and seems to hold the bikes well. It feels stable driving around. No rattling around.

    A few 'complaints': 1. The inner hitch brace thing is kinda poorly designed in that when you are trying to fit the rack into the hitch, if you tilt the rack up or down (which you're likely to do since the thing is so big and cumbersome), that hitch brace thing will fall out onto the ground or slide back. So, is definitely a two person job to get the rack into the hitch. I called Saris about it and the guy said that you could bend this piece a little so it will fit a little more snugly. Haven't tried it yet. 2. The plastic parts (wheel well, mounting straps) seem like they may wear pretty quickly (time will tell), but I guess I'll just have to get replacement parts when they break. The customer service for when I needed the replacement bolt was very good that I don't imagine I'll have a problem with replacing the plastic components when I need to go down that road in the future. 3. The wheel straps will easily fall into the wheel well if you forget to lift them up and tuck them out of the way when placing your bike in the wheel well. We've just made a family rule now that we need to tuck them out of the way once the bike is removed.

    So, overall, happy with the purchase. Gave it five stars since there wasn't a 'four and a half' option. :) Deducted half a star due to the little annoyances as described above. Not sure what else out there is better. Happy it is made in USA.

    I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to write this one. My last rack was a Saris rack and it was very universal at the time. I loved it! However, I started doing Triathlon and graduated to high end tri bikes and the old rack would not support the frame (there is no way Saris could have seen this coming, though!). Also, my old Saris rack was a dedicated 2 bike carrier. Now, I have 2 kids and I need to occasionally carrier a high end tri bike for my races, OR 2 adult road bikes, a 24in wheel bike, and a BMX. Plus, I need it to fold down so I can open my SUV hatch and fold up when not in use. I used to sell racks at a rack store when I was in college, so I have seen them all and was highly picky when choosing a new rack. I have to say that Saris has thought of everything and solved every problem on the Superclamp. It is truly universal. I’m amazed! The locking system is genius too. Yes, it is really really expensive, but worth every penny. It will serve my family well as we evolve through many bikes. Some reviews suggest that it is lighter in weight, and, yes, I suppose it could be heavier, but it is a beast of a rack. It requires a strong body and an ample storage space. Figure it out, though, because it is worth it. I am so impressed!

    I bought this rack because of a positive review in Wirecutter. Since getting it, I've only used it four times. Yesterday, after biking up in the mountains with three other guys, one of the wheel holders broke off. Unlike the frame, which is very sturdy, the wheel holder is made of plastic (presumably to save weight). I had no idea how "cheap" and thin this plastic was until it broke off, leaving me with a three-bike rack with four bikes.... I didn't press down hard on it or anything like that... As a matter of fact, it simply fell off (the broken one was on the first bike we put on the rack, closest to the vehicle). seemingly on its own while we were loading the fourth bike. I am very disappointed, especially given the price paid and the positive newspaper review. My only other complaint is my own fault: I assumed that I was purchasing a two-bike rack with a two-bike extension. Instead, it's permanently a four bike rack. (or now, in my case, a three-bike rack....) I simply made the wrong assumption. There was no misleading advertising. Otherwise.... it seems like the kind of rack you would pay nearly a thousand dollars for. I contacted Saris and they are replacing the broken wheel holder for me at no charge. It's roughly a $15 part but obviously an integral part to the system.
