Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4-Bike Platform Style Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver)

Product Description

The Sport Rider fits all bikes using a padded universal top clamp and adjustable wheel holders. It is quick and easy to use and has a MSRP under $199. Includes Hollywoods No Wobble" threaded hitch pin that prevents rack sway.

Amazon.com Product Description

This heavy-duty platform-style rack is designed as a 2 + 2 system so it can be easily converted to hold either two bicycles or four bicycles. It mounts on a 2-inch hitch and folds flat against the back of a vehicle when not in use. The rack uses padded universal top clamps and adjustable wheel holders. Bikes need simply to be dropped into the wheel holders and clamps slid down onto the frames. Velcro wheel straps add security. To prevent rack sway, the hitch system is "no-wobble/no-tools" and includes a locking pin and 9-foot security cable. The rack carries a limited warranty against defects.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4-bike ROCKS!, November 6, 2008
This review is from: Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4-Bike Platform Style Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver) (Sports)
Looked at several racks before finding the perfect one. We haul 4 "hybrid" bikes around. None have the traditional cross bar. The Hollywood Sport Rider supports the bikes by the tires/wheels. It weighs a bit, but if you fold it up, it balances nicely and can be put into the receiver easily. Also, it has a device to tighten it up once in the receiver, so it (and the bikes) do not wobble AT ALL as you cruise down the bumpy side roads. As with most anything in life, you get what you pay for with this awesome rack. Hope this helps.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Bike Rack for unusual bike frames, October 12, 2009
By 
Shelby Austin (California, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4-Bike Platform Style Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver) (Sports)
This bike rack is great for bikes of all sizes and shapes. We have many bikes in our household and several of them are mountain bikes with unusually thick frames. These bikes would not work on the usual bike racks even with the modifier poles extending from the handle bar post to the seat post.

This is a very sturdy rack and is easy to configure is many different ways. It may take a few times to find the best configuration for your bikes but once you get the hang of it this is a great rack. I have had to be creative with my 3 year old's bike and make sure the hook came over the seat because the frame is too low for the hook to secure it. Although this rack is easy to put on and take off it is a heavy (and bulky to store) so I end up leaving it on my van even when I may not need it for a few days.

I also feel this is a safe rack in case of an accident because the arm of this rack is so low that even with bikes on the rack it is unlikely a rear end collision... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Solidly built - gets the job done, September 3, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4-Bike Platform Style Hitch Mount Rack (2-Inch Receiver) (Sports)
I've been looking for a rack with some specific criteria for a while - capacity for 4 bikes, platform rack, solidly constructed, holds mountain or road bikes, 2+2 configuration for when the family stays home. This was the best value.

Things I really like:
* This rack can fold in multiple ways - the top tube folds sideways, so the whole rack can fold up while attached to the car. Or the side tubes fold up for surprisingly compact storage. Locking pins are secure & make for easy setup.
* Includes a locking hitch pin and long cable lock in the package.
* Holds the bikes very securely. I had a hangning-style rack, and the bikes were too close, swung into each other damaging 2. This is rock solid. The bikes are held very securely.
* Ratcheting hold down clamps - once it's configured for your bikes, it's very quick to put the bikes on and off.

Workable, but minor annoyances:
* Attaching the extension to carry 4 bikes requires a wrench &... Read more

This review is from: Swagman XP 3-Bike Standard Hitch Mount Rack (2" Receiver) (Sports)
This rack was easy to assemble and mount the only thing I found was that if you try to load three large bikes they do not fit. But I own a truck so the third bike goes in the bed. The locking knob is nice but it is metal in plastic no sure what would happen if a screw driver was used to try and open the lock. Very sturdy and yet simple

5.0 out of 5 stars Good product, but online description needs details, July 19, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Allen Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adaptor (Sports)
The bar does exactly what it is intended for. However, on the packaging of the bar it specifically says the distance from the seat post to handle bar post needs to be at least 18 inches, no where does it say that on the online write up. So, it doesn't work for my daughters' bikes. Something to be aware of.

Very handy item for multiple bikes on a rack. Keeps from having one bike tilted at an awkward position from the other(s). Very easy to use, just be careful as the spring tension can fool you and you can get a finger pinched. It only took one pinch and now I can set the bikes up like a pro.

This review is from: Allen Tension Bar Bicycle Cross-Bar Adaptor (Sports)
This bar is very stout and capable of staying in place. I use it to mount two expensive Treks and feel confident the bikes will stay in place at 70mph on highway. When I picked up my new Treks, the service tech commented on the quality of the bar and asked who makes it, where I got it etc...he was impresssed of it's quality. The rubber end coatings interface well and won't harm bikes' finishes. Both my treks have different frame configurations, the bar adjusted easily.
