After buying our first tandem in 2006, I learned I could add a tandem rail to the rack and never looked back. I’ve used it to transport a tandem plus other bikes many thousands of miles since. Even two tandems at once at one point. My early version is a cruder implementation than what can be bought nowadays no doubt, but it still works great. The only thing better is transport inside the vehicle, which I can do by separating my Speedster Copilot at the front couplers. But the Draftmaster is the right solution for my tandem without couplers, or if I need to use more space inside the car for other things.
