IKURAM R 2 Bike Hitch Mount Foldable Bicycle Carrier, Fits 2" Receiver

I love this bike rack. I use it on the back of my truck. I appreciate that the bike rack come with a hitch clamp. This keeps the rack from wiggling around in the hitch when driving. Our bikes fit nicely on this rack and are secure. The rack also comes with an extra strap. One thing I will ad is this. I see in reviews some of the rubber straps were breaking. What I did was spray silicone to the hole in the strap and the small post the strap goes over. This helped tremendously when clamping the straps down. This has helped me to not have to struggle strapping the bikes down.

heavy duty very satisfied handle 2 bikes easily

Good enough. The first kit I got was rusty. The interior of all three square-tube pieces were rusty. Only the mounting hardware and "stabilization plate" were fine. The seller sent me a replacement kit, which was rust free. It has pretty loose tolerances, and wobbles a fair bit from side to side. The "stabilization plate" helps, by clamping onto the bottom lip of the receiver. I added thick paint to both the hitch end of the tube, and both surfaces of the rack's own separation point, and that tightened it up a bit. It still sways a bit, and occasionally rattles when driving over bumps. Once installed, putting the bikes on here is pretty easy. The holders on each fork (to hold the bike frame) seem a little cheap, but good enough for now. The plastic base tents to deform a bit with a heavy bike, but they haven't broken. The rubber strap which goes over the top of the bike frame, is a little tough to secure onto the button-thing. However, it is doable. I don't quite trust it enough, so I add a ratchet strap of my own. It may or may not be possible to carry 4 bikes. If done carefully, you probably could. You can definitely fit 3.

We’ve only used it once but we were happy with it! Per the recommendation, we did use a bungee cord for extra support. Make sure bikes are off the rack before you try to move the rack and get into the trunk of your car! .

Overall I feel this is a good bike rack. The instructions I felt were a little lacking. Multiple additional parts with no mention of how to use. Someone new to "trailering" something may not know. It came with trailer hitch tighteners. Place this over the hitch and clamp between hitch and receiver. This reduces noise and vibration while driving (not required but great feature). Did come with an extra bike strap and crossbar adapter ( no instructions but most people could figure out). The only reason I gave it a 3 was because the hitch mount was not square with the post. Everything bolts in nicely, but since it doesn't align squarely the movable bolt does not go in and out easily. Other than that it is pretty solid and would recommend purchasing it.

Excellent product...great price...easy to install

AVOID ON THE HIGHWAY!! Those who want a quick Summary: the mounts that hold the bike onto the rack turn into smush when the sun hits them for 2 days, and the straps pop off easily. The bike will unmount and hit your car, or fly off (thankfully I only ended up with a few deep scratches on my car paint and glass, versus the rear window breaking completely. The whole story: I had to do a 3.5 hour drive to make it to a meet up and my goodness this has got to be one of the most stressful drives I’ve ever done. (I’ve driven with a stuttering engine before but driving with this rack was way worse!). It was fine within the city at low speeds but as soon as the sun came out, and I went on the highway at 70mph…oh my goodness…ITS SO BAD!! The bike immediately came off and when I went to go and check, the mounts were just mush! They had gotten so soft in the sun that no matter how many times I try to put the bike back in place, the Mount would just get squashed and deformed under the weight of my bike (my bike weights less than 20lbs). First time bike slid off because mounts just flattened and I ended up with scratches on my cars rear window (photos coming soon) Second time bike slid off because the mounts flattened and the straps were the only thing keeping the bike from flying off….this time I ended up with DEEP scratches in the paint of my car. Third time the bike came off because the straps snapped off. My U-Lock Cable was the only thing ensuring the bike didn’t fly off into traffic. Fourth time the bike came off because the mount was mush again, some heavy braking slid the bike back onto the mount though. All this happened within a 3.5 hour drive. But! The first 1.5 hours the bike was fine, it was the last 2 hours where all of those events above happened. Plus, this was all on butter-smooth florida highways. I was so happy to arrive at my location. The very first thing I did was go to a sporting goods store and buy a Thule bike rack for the drive back (no I can’t afford a Thule so despite being against using credit cards for loans, I’m using my credit line to buy a Thule just for the drive back). I simply cannot risk damaging my car, my bike, or worse, the safety of other drivers on the road. Yes I’m returning this. No I would never recommend this to a friend. Trying to save ~$100 I ended up having the following damage done: Car paint: $50 for touch up paint plus clear coat Scratches on the window: $200 for a new rear window DEEP Scratches on my bike: idk how much this will cost to fix, but definitely ruined the finish on my bike. Other than that major issue, the locking pin jams under the weight of a bike so folding the bike in order to access your trunk will get annoying really fast.

Being retired, I needed something very easy to manage, and flexible enough to allow me to easily get in and out of my SUV rear liftgate. I purchased the three bike rack in order to transport two larger beach cruiser bikes with a space in the middle. It took me 15 minutes to assemble and install on my Jeep. There are several reviews complaining about "the wobble". Here's the solution: the manufacturer has included a FREE special u-bolt and bracket. Looking at some of the photos, people have just installed it incorrectly, so it's not taken care of their problem. I've attached a photo of where it goes, and it is solid as a rock when you tighten it up - NO WOBBLE! You might think that bracket will make it hard to take on and off your vehicle, but if you just throw a $5 wrench (17mm or 11/16") in the back of your vehicle, simply loosening the two nuts slightly allows the bracket to slide off with the bike rack when you remove it from your trailer hitch. In fact, the included bracket, when installed per the photo, is a great theft deterrent. Overall it's great rack. The fold down capability to be able to open your rear gate allows you to keep the rack on 24/7, even with bikes on it. Buy this bike rack, for sure, and if you put some wax on it when you wax your vehicle, it will last a long time!

Received it yesterday and already used it. Bought the 2 bike rack but I regret not buying the 4 bike rack as it is a solid one, super easy to install

This product was ready and easy to setup. Hang on the truck no problem. Yes it swivels but man it’s hard put bikes on. Unless you have a large bike that offers a LARGE only frame, loading up any other bike is a nightmare. Forget putting a woman’s bike on here. Straps are too small for thicker frame. Tried putting my kids bike on this and what a challenge. There is no way to put 4 bikes on here. Especially large ones.. dissapointed with this product and will have to make my own brackets and adjustments hours before I leave for vacation.
