Comments about Yakima Racks Super Joe 2 Bike Carrier:

This is the first bike rack I have ever owned, but I really like it so far. Compared to others I have looked at, this one seems much more stable and well constructed. I have only carried one bike on it at a time, but my bike stayed very still even while driving over 50mph. The only concern I have is about the rubber straps eventually rotting from being exposed to the elements, but I believe replacements are available.

Comments about Yakima Racks Super Joe 2 Bike Carrier:

I usually ride 2/3 times a week and find this rack extremely quick and easy to take on and off my trunk for each ride. I drive an '07 Altima and find this rack fits my car and mountain bike pretty well as long as I only put one bike on. I tried putting two on and the bike closest to my car scratched it. I adjusted the rack several times and never found a position that kept the bike from scratching my car. So, I just keep one bike on it and it works fine.

Comments about Yakima Racks Super Joe 2 Bike Carrier:

With a small hatchback car, this rack fits perfect. Its solid, my road bike doesn't budge. The only issue I had was that when mounted, the bike's rear tire sits really high, level with the handlebars. Where that was a problem was when mounting a second bike (facing the opposite direction) the bars hit the other bike's rear tire. I could still mount it, but I'd feel better if they both rested naturally. Otherwise, great product.
