Yeah, it's cheap. Yeah, it'll get your bikes from point A to point B. But is it worth the damage your bikes and your car to spend only $39.54?
Hold out for a second-hand Bones. The three-point mounting (there's also a mount for the seat tube) means the bikes don't swing around as you're driving. Hardly a week goes by around here when I don't see one on Craigslist for considerably less than the $125 list price.
