Question regarding the condition of the rack; the last photo shows the Padded cradle and quick-release straps protect bottom-mounted cables missing. are they not included? Can the rack be shipped?

Yes, the back cradle is missing the padded insert as well as one of the two strap/tie-ons. I have talked to my LBS and they have agreed to sell me a replacement cradle which includes the entire cradle system (cradle, padded insert, and two straps/tie-ons) at cost for $45. Thus, I am willing to split that cost once I have a commitment by increasing the $175 price by $22 to $197 plus actual shipping costs. This way, you are truly getting a $400 rack mount for 50% off the new price.
You can see a close-up photo of the cradle here: https://www.etrailer.com/Accessories.../Y8820153.html
Just let me know.
Thx much

Woodcycl: Though I've been a member for a long time, I've mostly lurked, so have posted only a handful of messages, thus I'm barred from PM (so far). Let's continue the conversation when you return. I have a Sun EZ Tandem AX, and the Sidewinder is my choice for transporting it.

Ok sounds good. Fyi ... It looks like PM opens at your 10th post. So feel free to reply here several times and/or pay sum introduction in that forum as well.

woodcycl: The trick with the Tandem AX (9.5' long) is to load it with rear tire facing forward over the windshield, so that the rear hatch can still be opened fully.
