About SportRack
Located in Granby, Quebec SportRack started manufacturing automotive ski racks in 1980. The company's early focus on "easy-on/easy-off" products has led to a product line featuring an array of multi-sport roof rack systems and accessories, hitch-mounted products, cargo boxes, and trunk-mounted racks.
With so many on offer these days, it is great to have a name you can trust. This item is certainly that and will be a perfect buy. The distributor have added some great touches and this equals great value.

Extremely secure platform
Pros: this rack carries 4 bikes without any of them touching, and they are supported exactly the way they are designed to be supported. The carrier appears indestructible. If you have a lift back, the hatch can be opened when the carrier is mounted (but not when the bikes are on the rack). Any size or shape bike can be carried. When driving, the bikes are secure and silent.
Cons: weight -- the disadvantage to indestructibility is that a lot of steel was used to build the rack, and that makes it heavy (about 60 lbs without bikes). This weight only comes into play when putting the carrier on your car, or taking it off. loading -- If you have a lift-back, you need to get into it before the bikes are loaded. The upright bars can be tilted away from the back of the car far enough to open the back. length -- you have to remember that this carrier is sticking out a few feet behind your car. Storage -- even folded up it takes a lot of room in your garage.

Great for family bikes
We bought this rack since our family is at the stage where we each ride a different style and size of bike: my adult men's bike, my wife's adult women's bike, my son medium sized, and my daughter's small bike. All fit and are held firmly in the rack. Yes, it is heavy, but solid. Yes, the instructions are less than complete, but you can figure it out. Note that it is highly recommended that you buy the locks, items A32020 and A32022, to lock the rack to the car and the bikes to the frame. If you don't, you may return to your car to find your bikes and rack missing.
Excellent rack for the price
I was looking for a platform style rack for a while and the I saw this on amazon on sale. So far I am extremely happy with the rack. It functions as advertised.
Pros: 1) Well Built
2) Able to put two adult mountain bikes, One 20", and one 16" bike. For 16" I had to play with the location of top C-clamps. Put smaller one below the larger one...even though instruction say otherwise.
3) Very sturdy
Cons: Not many but it is heavy..but comes with the sturdy/well built
2) I would have loved if it can be converted to two rack (by removing last two platforms)
Overall very happy and would recommend it.
