I have had the Allen spare tire bike carrier for two years. It fits my 2000 Honda CRV perfectly and was easy to mount. Unlike some other carriers the Allen carrier is relatively light and does not add a lot of weight on the back door. This is important since any extra weight in addition to the bicycles can cause the door to droop and make it difficult to close when loaded. It is also a breeze to place the bikes on the rack, and since it has two bars they don't wobble around. Of course, some bikes are made a little differently than others and you have to figure out how to best seat each bike in the most secure manner. For security I loop a cable around the part of the spare tire carrier that is welded on the door and then around the bikes themselves. Actually, I have one cable lock permanently locked onto the spare tire mount, and then I take a second cable and loop it through the first cable. This makes the process of securing the bikes much easier. Any problems you may have are addressed VERY promptly by Allen Racks customer service. Good company! Highly recommended.Get more detail about Allen Deluxe 3-Bike Spare Tire Mount Rack.
