Very nice 2-bike trunk-mount rack by Graber / USA. Lightweight, folds for storage, no assembly required, just attach to trunk or hatchback.

Two sets of locking plastic straps hold bikes on the upper arms, resting in plastic cradles, all in good condition.

This model has dense foam contacts; one set that fits against upper trunk (or hatchback), and another set that fits against bumper or license plate area. There are two sets of adjustable webbing straps with coated hooks that fit tightly to upper and lower edges of the trunk. (Super long straps; they should NOT be cut to fit, just wrap the excess, as your NEXT car may be bigger!)

This will fit just about ANY trunk or hatchback, because of the really long straps.

Snap clips allow for adjusting the length of extension arms; they can be pulled out several inches (and locked in place) to second position for two full size bikes. It is desirable to use the shortest position however, if your bikes will fit well that way on your vehicle, but easy to extend if needed.

Note that this model does NOT have a third set of straps that attach to the SIDES of trunk lid, which is found on most 3-bike units and some 2-bike units. This one has two straps to trunk top and two to bottom. 

I have found that adding more cords or straps to keep wheels and lower part of the bikes from swaying is a good idea..... but that is NOT included.

This is a lot more compact than the Graber "Outback" 2- and 3-bike models I have recently sold, but is highly effective in holding up to two bikes. Each bike is cradled in two plastic rests, with straps permanently attached in each rest.

Owners manual is included for some other models / brands, copied onto a CD-ROM. Graber has changed ownership and apparently old manuals just are not supported any more.

There are great You-Tube videos showing how to set this up. (One in particular is designated for the Graber model 175-II, which attaches just like this one.)

  • Completely assembled and ready to go, right out of the box
  • Unique bike hold-downs separate and firmly hold up to 2 bikes
  • Coated hooks protect your car’s finish
  • Folds down flat for compact, convenient storage
Please note, four different shipping modes are available, not just the default one shown above; click on shipping tab for cost of each to YOUR location. Which one is cheapest will not be the same for everybody!

Fulfillment:

Orders are almost always sent out the same or next business day (M-F).  Please ask me, if you have not been notified of your tracking information within a couple of days, or if you don’t receive your order in a reasonable time.  Once I hand it over, the CARRIER is responsible for delivery,  NOT ME.

Errors / Photo Quality:

Most of the photos in my listings are the actual item, and as representative of the item as I could make them.  If you want additional photo details, ask via email, and may post more photos.   Color tint and intensity may not be accurate, due to difference in monitors and my photographic skill level.   If there seems to be an ERROR in the listing, PLEASE ASK ME and I will explain, or correct it!

Please consider carefully before leaving less than the BEST POSSIBLE feedback (all 5-stars) for me or ANY seller.  If there is a problem, please discuss it with the seller BEFORE posting feedback. 

 

I am not allowed by ebay rules to tell buyers what if any penalties are incurred by sellers with less than perfect feedback.

If there is a problem with your purchase – broken, not working, parts missing, etc. – you must let me know within three or four days of receiving it.  Please be as specific as possible, and give me a couple of days to get back to you with my proposed solution.  Note: Posting the problem as FEEDBACK is not what I mean. 

 

If there is a possibility it was damaged in shipping, please TELL ME right away and keep everything; it probably will be covered by insurance.

If you see only one shipping price, please click on “shipping” tab to see all options offered.  These will be available for your choice  when it is time to pay. 

 

If offered and you select FedEx or UPS, I reserve the right to upgrade to USPS Priority Mail for my convenience, without notice, at no extra cost to the buyer.

 

Local Pickup: I do allow local pickup, but charge a fee ($3.00).  Fee is charged only the first time for a buyer; no charge on purchases after that.  If I recognize an address as “local” I will include this option in your invoice.  If I don’t do that, just ask and I will revise your invoice.
