I searched for months trying to find a bike rack that looked sturdy
enough and had enough positive reviews for me to even consider it, and
then I found this. The added support of the two side straps is
excellent, it keeps the rack from sliding side to side, even when you
make quick turns. I have a 2002 Camry without the spoiler, and I have no
trouble installing this rack. Now, to ease your worries of some other
reviews you may have read. I read that some people had to keep stopping
and tightening the straps because the rack was sagging.

If you simply read the instructions, it gives you a specific knot to
tie so this doesn't happen. I've already driven my bikes about 200
miles, and have not had that problem once, even on bumpy roads. Other
people suggested wrapping the metal hooks with electrical tape to
cushion the areas where it latches onto your car to avoid paint chips,
so I went ahead and did that as a precaution and I haven't had any
trouble. You will also want to get a bungee cord or some rope to keep
the front tires from hitting your car, and a sock or two over the pedal
closest to the car to avoid scratches. Overall, this rack is extremely
well made, and very sturdy. I definitely recommend this product. One
last tidbit, if you plan on hauling a women's bike, make sure you get
the adapter. There's one made by Allen on amazon that is the cheapest
and works like a charm.
