I did extensive research on all of this because I'm a car guy first, mountain biker second. I wasn't about to buy a roof rack, I'd surely fukk up the paint somehow, worse gas mileage to boot.
This is great, high quality plastics, the parts that touch the paint are coated (although I bought extra protection) and it's held up. I've only had it for two weeks, but it's been a good look so far. Everyone in the biking world I know said to roll w/ this one.
I am looking more for family biking 2/3 bikes.
Never even heard of them until I asked for recommedations.
Thanks.
