Review: Very sturdy, very simple. Easy to put together and easy to use. Folds up and locks to minimize extra space at the back of the vehicle for parking and maneuvering. Also, a very cool feature allows it to fold down at an angle when loaded with bikes so you can access a rear hatch w/o unloading the rack. Holds bikes very securely w/o any wobble or damage from bikes rubbing up against each other or the rack. All tire trays and frame cradles are completely adjustable, so you can fit most bikes and frame sizes pretty easily. We have 4 mountain/hybrid bikes. Saris makes replacement parts for everything and also has trays that support fat tire bikes if you need them. It is made for a 2 inch hitch receiver. My hitch is a 1.25. I purchased an adapter and 2 hitch tighteners (really just modified clamps) so I could use this. Place one tightener where the adapter meets the hitch and the other where the rack is inserted into the adapter and the whole assembly is rock solid. No rattle, sway, or other movement. You will not be able to quickly remove the rack if you do this, since you have to loosen up both tighteners before you can remove the rack and the adapter, but for me it is definitely worth the extra time to have the stability. With the rack folded, it really doesn't bother me, so I just leave it attached in that position. I've been driving around with it for a few months now and have had zero issues with parking lots, garages, or even those tight spiral ramps in the multi-level garages. The worst things, which for me are pretty minor: 1. 2 seconds of inconvenience to tilt the rack out of the way to load/unload groceries and gear from the rear of the car and then fold it up again. 2. If you are addicted to a backup camera or have proximity sensors on your car, they will go crazy since there is always something back there when you are in reverse. I can still see what's back there in my camera, so not really a big deal for a couple of seconds to back out of a spot. 3. It does stick out over a foot beyond the back of your car when folded (maybe 2 feet with an adapter). However, unless you have a monster SUV or a truck, you really shouldn't run into too many space problems. I have a mid-size SUV (7 seats) and haven't had any issues. 4. There are no good instructions for how to load the bikes into the rack. Notes: The cradle that holds the bike frame tube can be a bit dicey to figure out the first time and you have to manage the pedal position on each bike to avoid contact and damage during transport. I have mine loaded with the handlebars on the bike closest to the car on the driver's side. After alternating the direction of each bike loaded after that and some initial adjustments, everything fits very well. You do have to play with it a bit and it is helpful if there are 2 people working with it for the initial load. Once you have a system figured out and positions set, it is quick and easy for 1 person as long as you are strong enough to lift and steady a bike by yourself. Summary: This tray is MUCH better than those hanging racks that can have bikes swinging in the wind or have hanger failure problems. If you care about your bikes or your car, you need to get a tray rack. This rack is well designed, sturdy, and easy to use. Add hitch pin locks, a plastic coated cable and lock that can thread through all your bikes and you are good to go for road trips or a vacation that might require you to leave the bikes and hitch unattended occasionally. I definitely would recommend it for any multi-bike family. Review: I am very happy with this product! It works great and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to safely transport their bicycle without worries of it shifting during the journey. ## Features - ACCOMMODATES UP TO 2 BIKES: Designed to transport two bicycles, each with a weight capacity of up to 60 lbs, making it suitable for various bike types. - UNIVERSAL BIKE COMPATIBILITY: Adjustable rubber holders and ratcheting straps secure a wide range of bike styles and sizes, including kids' bikes, step-thru frames, tri-bikes, and small recumbents. - FITS 1¼" AND 2" HITCH RECEIVERS: Compatible with both 1¼-inch and 2-inch hitch receivers, ensuring a secure and stable attachment to your vehicle. - COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT DESIGN: Weighing only 20 lbs, the rack is easy to install and handle, and folds up neatly against your vehicle when not in use, saving space. - SECURE RATCHETING STRAPS: Easy-to-adjust ratcheting straps keep bikes stable and secure during transit, providing peace of mind on every journey. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00DMMCIMQ | | Batteries Included? | No | | Brand | Saris | | Color | Black | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars (509) | | Date First Available | 10 August 2013 | | Department | unisex-adult | | Height | 9 inches | | Included Components | Rack | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item model number | 4412B | | Length | 49 inches | | Manufacturer | Saris | | Material Type | Alloy Steel | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Pieces | 1 | | Product Dimensions | 22 x 122 x 34 cm; 11.88 kg | | Size | Unavailable | | Sport | cycling | | Style | Freedom 2 Bike | | Weight | 17.6 Kilograms | | Width | 14 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Saris - **Colour:** Black - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 22 x 122 x 34 centimeters - **Material:** Alloy Steel - **Vehicle service type:** Car, Minivan, SUV, Truck ## Images ![Freedom Bike Rack and Spare Tire Compatible Rack, Universal Hitch, 2 or 4 Bicycle Carrier Options, Protective Rubber Holders, Adjustable to Bike Frame - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61CQskljYsL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will the saris freedom rack for 1.25" hitch hold 2 raleigh retroglide e-bikes? these have a 48" or less wheel base and weigh less than 55 lbs. each.** A: The Freedom 2-bike can carry 2 bikes up to 60 lbs each and up to 48" wheelbases so yes, your bikes will fit! Due to battery placement, some E-bikes may require a slightly longer ratchet strap for the downtube cradle assembly which can be found on Saris.com. **Q: can the outside wheel holders be removed if I am only carrying 1 bike?** A: The answer to your question is yes. I do have to tell you that this rack was absolutely horrible. The pin that holds the vertical bar doesn’t go completely through the hole, so if you hit some rough road it WILL pop out. This happened to me while we were on the highway in our RV. I looked at the rear camera and saw our bikes being dragged by their locking cable. Not to mention the sparks!! I litteraly took this so called rack and through it into a supermarket dumpster. We continued on our journey with the bikes in the hallway of the RV. It’s not worth the money you save compared to the better more expensive racks. Good luck **Q: Does this rack keep your 27.5 tire mountain bike pretry steady on turns amd bumps and speed on the freeway? I dont want to see my bike falling off.** A: Yes. I’ve had it fully load with 27.5 and 29er’s and gone over some rougher road to get to different biking place and up a few fire roads. Also had it well over the post speed limit on the freeway a few times. Never worried about my bike coming loose for falling off. Just make you have it on there correctly and go for an adventure! **Q: I have a rav4 and an audi a5. can the one of these racks be used for both cars with a trailer hitch? or can the freedom spare tire version also be** A: I would think so. I use it without any issues on my Honda Fit with the small receiver, and on my RV with the 2 inch receiver. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by G***R on 2 August 2018* Very sturdy, very simple.
