transport our Santana VISA AND our kid's Adams Trail-A-Bike 'tandem'! We have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and a Honda Accord. Have been watching eBay for a nice used 558p tandem tray but there is only 1 new one but I do not want to spend over $300 US. Would prefer to haul them on the Honda as it has a much lower roof than the Jeep. Anybody here in the same situation? If so, how do you handle it? Thanks for the replies.

I am going to mail order one from those guys. I mail ordered a Saris hitch mount Cycle on Pro rack from them about three months ago and was happy with their service. They wer the cheapest I could find and do not charge tax or shipping. Only major difference is the fork mount does not pivot. For the price difference I will have my wife help me get it on my Xterra, after all Tademing is about team work any ways.

We have a Rocky Mounts Tandem carrier and so far are happy with it.

If you're patient and have the time to wait, I've seen 2 Yakima Sidewinders sell for under $300 on ebay.
