Premier Locking

Absolutely 100% buy this rack!!!! I love it and can't stop using it. I'm a professional musician and getting into the trunk of my CRV regularly is a must. I got a cheap rack first and honestly dealing with the pins was such a hassle! I quickly got tired of that along with the fact that it came with misaligned holes. This rack is the total opposite! The straps are strong and sturdy, and therefore super safe. It doesn't wobble, the fit is perfect, and it is a highly solid unit. Returned it and decided to just spend the money to get this Allen rack and it is the best money I've ever spent. Now I can confidently take my bike anywhere and it's super convenient and easy to use. Such a breeze with the easy release latch and even EASIER to install and uninstall the rack into the hitch. Love the turnstile locking system with the key. Makes it super easy to remove if you need to! Don't hesitate. Get this now!!

We compared a lot of similar products and went with this a few months ago. Took a while to arrive, but when it is it came undamaged and with all parts. Had the hitch professionally installed by a mechanic who put it up on a hoist and had the key tools for a tight fit ($80 CAD). the rack is built solid, easy to assemble and install and holds strong. Bikes are super easy to mount and dismount given the rubber strap design. We drove it over 200km on one of our 4 trips with it so far, and had no issues. We used the included additional strap and our bike lock for additional stability. The locking mechanism makes for super convenient trips given you don’t have to worry about someone stealing the rack when left overnight in a hotel parking lot. Folds away smoothly, is light and stylish.

I was looking for a platform style carrier from the major manufacturers and was ready to spend $1000 to $1200 on a unit because I wanted something easy, quick to load/unload and sturdy. Fortunately, due to covid everything was sold out. I always thought that the hanging carriers looked like a pain to set up. I WAS WRONG! I can insert the rack, load 2 adult bikes and 2 kids bikes, run bungee cords through the tires and put on the safety straps in just over 4 minutes. That’s start to finish! The rack is built extremely well and so easy to assemble. So far we have used this rack about 5 times and have travelled anywhere from 20 to 100 km with it on the back. So glad we made this purchase! Thank you Allen sports for making such a great product.

I normally do not write reviews unless a product is exceptional or garbage. This product is exceptional. I got the Premiere Locking 4-Bike for $210 and could not be happier that I did. Assembly was 5 minutes at most. During assembly I thought numerous times this is as sturdy as a bike rack could possibly be yet it was not bulky at all. I tightened and locked it into the hitch in less than 30 seconds and was convinced this sucker wasn't going anywhere. The tilt down feature and the squeeze pins to fold the horizontal rack are engineered perfectly. Completely sturdy and ergonomic at the same time. I drove 200 miles with the rack empty to pick my daughter and her bike up for the summer. I forgot the rack was there. Not a single rattle. I also forgot her 20" mountain bike had the step-through bar so I had to flip it upside down (it was the only bike on the rack) to make the spacing of the mounts work. I was incredibly hesitant that her bike wouldn't stay in place going 75+ mph as well as taking curvy mountain roads. It never moved an inch on the return trip. Full disclosure, I did secure it with 2 additional velcro straps(Super-Stretch Wrap-It Storage Straps, 12") on the mount because I listened to a few bad reviews. I don't think they were needed but they were an additional piece of mind. I also used a bungee to stabilize the front tire to the post of the rack because it was upside down. Her bike did not move even though it was completely awkward and felt off-center. Not a single rattle either. I bought this rack to eventually haul our 3 bikes including my fat tire bike. I have ZERO qualms about this rack handling the other 2 bikes. However, I will be buying the step-through bar rack adapter to negate the upside down bike. In conclusion, I can't imagine there being a better bike rack for the price. It is easy to assemble, sturdy as I could have ever imagined, and intuitive in it's design. I would buy this rack 100 times over.

Couldn't recommend more! We carry 3 adult and 1 youth bike with no worries at all. They barely touch, just have to be smart when loading them. It comes with a strap so you can tie them all nicely together so it wont shake and rattle when on the road. Amazing product so far.
