| 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful  Dura Assist Bile Rack review, By Jon (Kansas) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Softride 26321 Acess Dura Assist 4 Bike Rack (Sports) I just received this rack, unpacked it and assembled. The assembly was easy requiring only 4 bolts. I mounted the rack on the car's 2 inch receiver hitch using 1 additional bolt supplied with the rack. This bolt takes all of the slop out from between the rack and the car. The assembly is rock solid on the car and does not vibrate around like many other racks. The rack and car act as one unit and this keeps the motion of the rack and bikes to a minimum. The rack tips back and my van's back door opens with lots of extra space. I mounted 3 bikes and all fit well from a 48cm to a 61cm. The assist part works well and the weight of 3 carbon road bikes holds it in the down position and it is easy to lift up. There is a feature to disable the assist when no bikes are on the rack. This allows the bike rack to be in the down position with no weight on the rack. All in all this is a well engineered rack that is well built and very strong. I will be adding some lube at the main hinge points as it...

For the price, for what it can do, all the accessories it comes with, you can't beat it or even come close. Thule and Yakima racks are way more expensive and they will charge you for extras on top of that. But the tilt parallelogram design alone is reason enough to buy this rack with or without the hydraulic feature. It works smoothly and works as advertised. Hint: If you have a problem pulling out the spring loaded locking pin or moving the stopping block on top of the hydraulic pistons while the bikes are loaded. You just need to pull back on the rack a little to relieve some of the weight and it will be easier.There are racks out there that tilt out also, but they aren't meant to be tilted with the bikes on. This rack works with the bikes on and they stay leveled out. There are racks that swing out sideways or scissor out. But with these types you have to unscrew a bolt with a handle on it by hand and then...

We use it for transporting the bike and the scooter to trails. We have 2 snow dogs that we attach to the scooter like a sled and they pull like the dickens. I ride the bike and pull the baby while my wife rides the scooter. I wanted this one so we could get the dogs into the back of my truck even if the bike and scooter were still attached. This has worked great! The fold down function is just what I needed and it feels strong enough to last. The shock assist doesn't seem to make much difference to me, but I am glad it's there when my wife lifts or lowers the bikes. It is really attractive attached to my truck and I have been approached by strangers to ask about how it works several times.The mechanism for lifting and lowering it is simple to understand and use, but feels strong and secure. Assembly was not a problem, although a long-body socket for the bolts holding the top... Read more |
