About Allen Sports
Dick Allen (pictured left in 1972) started Allen Sports in his garage in 1967. Since its founding, the company has been committed to producing the highest-quality, easiest-to-use bike racks and bicycle related products on the market. Dick, a onetime aerospace engineer, opened Allen Sports after building a prototype bike carrier in his Lincoln, Massachusetts shop in his free time. The first ever trunk-mounted bicycle carrier made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding) was thoroughly tested on weekend excursions to Cape Cod. Shortly afterward, Allen took his design to market, and by 1971 had established a national presence for his product.
Today, the family owned company owns more than three dozen patents, operates four warehouses nationally, six factories abroad, and sells products in countries around the world including USA, Mexico, Canada, and China.
Customer reviews
I was very skeptical at first after reading the bad reviews about this product, but I decided to give it a shot because of the great reviews about it. I would say this is a really solid solution for those who do not have a hitch to mount their bikes, also it's very easy to remove from the back trunk. We have a 2009 Nissan Rogue and we travelled 8 hours on the highway going past 120km/h, also taking 2 ferries, and finally at our camp ground site. The bike mount stayed WELL put and the bikes BARELY moved. I just had to slightly re tighten some straps, but like I said, the bikes BARELY moved. We have an adult sized women's everyday rider, and an adult mountain bike. My only advice is to put the heavier bike on first, and even if you need or want to have extra support, you could easily tie extra rope on the furthest bike onto the top mounts. I would highly recommend this item for those who have crossover SUV's or sedans that don't have a hitch! =) I would give this bike mount a solid 4.8/5 =) Thanks Amazon!

I have a 2011 Mini Cooper classic. I've been searching for a sturdy, affordable and reliable bike carrier. I didn't want to shed $300+ for a Mini Cooper OEM bike rack. So I settled for this. I like how it comes with a bag and it can be easily put away and extended to final form. It's really easy to maneuver.
Initially, we placed the two flat rubber supports on my trunk glass. However, this placement made the bottom rubbers (the main support) on my license plate. I was scared the pressure of 2 road bikes may cause it to crack. So we lowered it until it was past my license plate.
I couldnt attach the last supporting hook under my trunk since it was right below the bottom rubber supports.
Luckily, my cooper has a bunch of random hitches INSIDE my trunk. This was option 2 in the manual as well.
It kinda works out, so now we can leave the bike rack on securely, wherever we go. It saves us the hassle of disassembling it. Of course we still use the bike locks to prevent theft.
It's an amazing space saver, great on the highway, on turns and bumps. You may want to buy a few bungee cords/zip ties to secure the wheels together. As for the loose and long left over straps, you can tie it on the bike wheels.
I recommend it.

Well for the low price of (what I paid), you too could have a temporary / portable bike carrier for your car.
My car, let’s call her Gracie, isn’t exactly the best automobile to transport large cruiser bikes.
Now with the addition of the Allen Sports rack I drive around showing my bike off just for fun !!
I look at my bike and excitedly ask it, “who wants to go for a car ride?!?”. Then I strap on the rack, and me and my bike slowly cruise the downtown core listening to 90s rap,
Basically, this bike rack is so good I’ve given up on pedalling and just drive my bike around now.
