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.

Total waste of money, but again, my own fault for not needing to use it until yesterday, as my return window is gone. However, the specs on the page and the specs of our bikes do indicate that it SHOULD have worked.
The rack is well made otherwise, but I can't really say if it is truly sturdy and holds the bikes during transport as we have never used it.

The bottom straps have hooks and I attached them to the vent slots on the tailgate. After hooking the securing straps onto the tailgate, it was easy to secure everything with the strap tightener thingys.
I have not used the rack for three bikes, but two fit perfectly with seemingly enough room for another.

I have a 2006 Honda CRV and we tested it out with 2 bikes. The arms at the top (that hang off the top of the spare tire) are quite short. We made a very slow turn getting out of the garage and the entire rack popped right off. We thought maybe we attached it incorrectly so we tried again, tightening everything down. Went down the street in a straight line just fine. Then tested it out at an empty parking lot going over some speed bumps. Went at about 10 mph over the bumps and the rack popped off again. Maybe it's the weight distribution but the arms that hang off the tire look too short to accommodate the weight of the bikes. And we testing it out 2, not 3 bikes.
Piece of crap. Do not purchase this product.
