Deluxe 4-Bike Hitch Mount
An easy to use, rugged rack to safely transport your bikes
Carry up to four bicycles on road trips or camping excursions with the Allen four-bike carrier hitch. The hitch insert--which fits 2-inch receiver hitches--is easy to operate and super secure for your bikes. Just attach it to your hitch, then use the tie-down cradle system to individually secure and protect the bikes. The carry arm accommodates a wide range of frame sizes and designs, so you can carry your kid-size mountain bike or adult road bike with equal confidence. And you don't have to remove your bikes to access the back of your truck or SUV, as the rack tilts back for easy lift-gate access and folds out of the way completely when not in use. Also equipped with a no-wobble bolt to keep the rack from moving inside the hitch, the four-bike carrier is colored with a black powder-coated finish.
Quick assembly and easy install
With only three bolts needed to assemble your Allen Deluxe Hitch Rack, your rack will be out of the box and have you on the road in minutes.

About Allen Sports
Richard 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. Allen, 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 refined 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.

I just completed a 4 hour trip, one-way with 4 bikes on it. My full suspension mountain bike, my wife’s light street bike, my 15-year olds hard tail mountain bike and my 11 year olds smaller mountain bike. The trip was 99% on pavement and I don’t remember hitting any major bumps.
Upon arrival, the bikes had a fair bit of rub damage which is to be expected, but maybe to not this extent. The problem is to get 4 bikes or rack you really have to be a little bit of a magician and they are crammed tight, so any movement is going to give you rub damage. When I got the bikes off, one of the arms was bent down. I straightened it for the return home, and after we got home the bends were worse (see pictures).
The reviews seem pretty good for using this bike for 2 or even 3 bikes, but that’s not what I bought it for, so only one star. I don’t see any way you’re going to use this for 4 bikes unless they are for 4 kids bikes and you don’t care about damage. I’d buy this to hauls 2 bikes as with the extra space I could avoid the rub damage, but it’s not taking any more than that.

Bike clamps are too near. I doubt if four full size bikes can fit. I had tried three. Little clumsy to tilt the rack to open flip gate. Also the hitch bolt is not stainless steel. It got corroded and looks ugly. Getting this on and off the car requires 10-15 minute each time and a set of wrench and box spanners.
However it holds bikes steadily. Driving at or slightly above 100 km/hr you will feel the shake a little bit but nothing alarming. Have used multiple times.
After a handful times of use, the cable to the pin that controls the leaning function snapped. We leaned it a couple of times to put groceries in the trunk. Now I have a feeling I will lose the pin and won't be able to use this rack.

Easy to assemble with proper tools. Make sure you tighten all the screws so it doesn't rattle. The straps are horrible and takes too long to strap or unstrap.

es apto para cargar 1 o 2 bicicletas, yo tuve que ir con un herrero y reforzar las uniones y poner tornillos de refuerzo para que soportara 4 bicicletas, solo así pude usarlo ya que la estructura ya se había vencido.
