They even have a video. The only things that make it hard are if I have too much junk in my locked-on panier and the bike is heavy to lift up to the rack. The other is that the original 29er tires on my Fargo barely fit under the tire clamp. Now I have 2" Schwalbe Supremes and they fit more easily.
It is't so much that they're hard to operate, slthough they do take a little hand strength. The problem for me is that I feel pressured to hurry, with all the people on the bus waitning for me.
So I got a little nervous the first time I used a bus rack. I ended up dropping a nice allen wrench. It rolled under the bus and I couldn't get it back.
