Amazon seems to have the best price on it btw at $214. Consider reading the questions and reviews on both Amazon and etrailer if you haven't already...

I looked at both Amazon and Etrailer as well as many other sites. I am unable to find ANY reviews or user ratings for the Stromberg Carlson BC-204.

Can you add direct links please.

Hi A7thson,


I couldn't find any reviews of the Stromberg Carlson either. I went ahead and purchased it anyway. I have only used it once, about 100 miles round trip and it survived that. It takes a little time the first time you load bikes to get everything in place and deciding what bike to put where. My sons bike was the last to go on and I didn't think it was held the greatest because the clamp needed to be in almost the same position as my daughters bike. Next time I will put his bike with mine and try my wifes and daughters bikes together. I have decided to not take our bikes on our big trip coming up (about 6000 miles) I'm afraid of a rack failure and no way to get the bikes home. I would have made that decision with any rack though because I have only used it once. It does seem to be built fairly well and I like the idea of a platform style rack over a hanging rack.
