Like I said, nice design, but it does not look like it can handle the fatigue and stresses of constant use over a long period of time.
Simply, I do not trust this design with my bike on my car. I would like to see a long term test with the rack before I come anywhere close to purchasing something like it.
Seriously, if it was a bit beefier, I would buy it in a heartbeat. A 23" 29er is difficult to cram in the car as it is.
