Bell Double Back Two Bike Trunk Rack – Reviews

I was taking my bike back to school with me and the bike rack came unlatched and my bike was flying behind the car only attached to the trunk on one side. the rack isn’t as secure as I would have liked but it definitely works for short drives, not necessarily the interstate.

Tigeresque

I’m new to the sport of biking so I didn’t want an expensive rack if I didn’t stick with it. This one was great for an entry-level user on mostly local trips.

Pros:
-easily takes my bike to work and back, and to the local trails
-Successfully transported my single bike 4 hrs. straight on highway and country roads. (and another 4 hrs. on the return trip)
-price
-easy to use and install
-seems to not damage my car

Cons:
-the straps are LONG. Recommend either cutting or tying them back upon themselves. It takes practice to figure out the best configuration.
-Need extra ties/bungees on the bike to keep the front wheel from turning (I tie it with the long straps, but then I have the rubber tire flush against my bumper. Some of you might not be ok with that.)
-The red bike holders slide. My front wheel ends up tight against the car while the back wheel slides out as far away from the car as possible adding to the drag. See the review from GreenEggsnHam to fix this. He’s brillia

I read several of the reviews on this rack and they are correct. I bought this rack and like it very much. I also carry a very high end custom built carbon fiber road bike using it.

This rack works like a champ IF and I say IF you set it up properly. I bought rubber coating material at Ace hardware and added 2 additional coats on the 4 trunk hooks — that way your trunk does not get dinged. I put padding on the 2 metal bars. The bike hangs – yes — but I use plastic bungies or string to hold the bike to the rack frame so it does not flap around – that would never do.

IMPORTANT FACTOR – Now — my bike weighs 17 pounds — therefore it does not do damage to the trunk of my miata from hook pulling or pushing down on trunk. I only carry 1 bike – mine on my ’02 Miata. Works fine. Absolutely perfect for cross town carry. Highway works too – went to Texas and it covered 1200 miles each way. But you need to check things and make sure its fastened. I rolled along at 70 no probl

This is an affordable, easy to use bike rack. The hooks are loose, so I used some folded paper towel or sandwich bag to make them engaged well to the trunk edges. Feel solid after 750 miles ride.
