Bendico or others,
1. What was the specific problem/issue with the Saris T-Rax's Pro's straps?
2. Did you consider Softride Racks ( http://www.softride.com/ )?
3. What about Yakima? Seems Thule has a heavier bike weight capacity.
4. Were you able to figure out which rack is least damaging to the bikes in terms of scratching or bumping into each other?
Thanks.
