(*If you start with a double it goes up to 4 trays.)

All aluminum means that after 5 salty Upstate NY winters there is no rust.

The only downside is that it is a PITA with full coverage rear fenders. Doable, but a bit of reconfiguring. Front fenders no problem and anything short of full coverage in the rear is OK too.
Thanks! I am seeing a future 1upUSA single rack for my sedan with a 1.25 inch receiver. I like how it can be extended to a double or triple bike should I get a car that has a stronger hitch receiver class.
