Barry2 makes a good point and it made me remember that checking the rack weight was part of my decision-buying, along with price and bike attachment method. The T2 (2 bikes) weighs 50#, the 1Up 2" Heavy Duty weighs 46#, and the Kuat Transfer 2 weighs 37#. The weight makes a difference to me since I don't leave the rack on all the time. Saris and Yakima also make platform carriers worth checking out.
