Comments about Yakima MegaJoe 3-Bike Trunk Rack:

I looked at a number of bike racks in a wide range of prices and this one fit our budget and we were able to mount three bikes without too much problem at all. You just have the make sure to alternate them going back and forth and I needed to raise the bike seat on one to make it fit. Very sturdy and easy to use.

Comments about Yakima MegaJoe 3-Bike Trunk Rack:

Once you get the correct setting for your vehicle - don't change it anymore when you take it off. I was able to "fit" three bikes, but only after i had loosened and turned the handlebars of 2 mtn bikes 90 degrees (parallel to the frame). good product - able to handle 3 heavy bikes.

Comments about Yakima MegaJoe 3-Bike Trunk Rack:

no issues at all in taking 2 bikes over 600 miles, twicenot sure how somebody didnt fit three, because there was plenty of room left overdefinately better than the less expensive graber racks, has great hold-downs, very functional, just make sure it fits your car because it is not quite as adaptable as some racks

Comments about Yakima MegaJoe 3-Bike Trunk Rack:

After buying it, I was surprised at how light weight it was and it required no assembly. However, the instructions were more complicated than they had to be and it didn't include any pictures for reference. We got it on after 30 minutes of playing with it, but we weren't sure if everything was correct. Once on, the first bike went on fine, but I had a difficult time getting a second bike on and a third bike wasn't even a possibility. I decided to return it and two minutes after getting in line a gentleman walked up behind me with the same bike rack. He was returning his for the same exact reason.
