Looking for Answers about Allen Sports Allen Sports Deluxe 3 Bike Rack Carrier for 1 1/4" & 2" Hitch?

Yes

yes you can make it work. It wont be exactly like an adult bike in the standard position. The span between the cradle arms is 15". They have tie-downs so if you put the bike lopsided it can be secured.

The rack is 16 inches wide. Measure the bike frame to see if it will fit.

Yes, I believe the two tie down straps will work on a child's bike.

Should carry easily, my .02

Yes, if properly fastened to the car. You need additional straps not supplied to tie them down so they don't sway back and forth. An assortment of bundgies work good.

I have driven nearly 80 with no concerns. Just make sure the lock bolt is tight. Take some tools to check it periodically.

You can feel confident the bikes are going nowhere.

When installed properly, the rack will be safe at 65 mph. I live in Florida and recently traveled on I75 at 70 mph with no problems. It is recommended that an additional strap be used to prevent the bike(s) from swaying (mentioned on instructions).

No problems even on rough surface.

you need 5" of clearance from the end of receiver and straight up. Inside 5 inches you will be cutting it close to the tire. I can't see the receiver in the picture but if it is tucked in underneath it might not work unless you have and extension.

I suggest you purchase a "Spare-tire" mounted rack. If you do want a hitch-mounted rack the vertical post of the rack extends 6 inches past the receiver (i.e. it depends entirely upon the location of the receiver).

You may need a hitch extension. Depends on how far the tire sticks out. From the end of the hitch tube to the inside of the vertical tube, it' 7 1/2 inches.

I have a Toyota Rav 4 2003 and I use the rack on it. I had to get an extension which I found at Harbor Freight about $16. The rack works great

Probably not without an extension. I use it on an Isuzu Trooper - with an externally mounted spare tire.

To use the rack as it came out of the box - I had to remove the spare and toss it in the back of the Trooper.

I purchased an extension/adapter from Harbor Freight (http://tiny.cc/hitchadapter) which works great.

We had to drill out the holding pin hole on the Allen rack to accomodate either a "standard" pin and/or "locking pin" both are 5/8" diameter.

Yes, I believe Walmart sells cable locks.

IT is bolted ,but if you want a lock you can get it at any walmart

im sure you can, but the 'no wobble' bolt secures it pretty well. someone would require a couple of wrenches to take it.

I found a lock, and I also needed an extension, at Harbor Freight under trailer/towing accessories. It was about $8-9.00

Yes. we have this rack and it works fine.

yes if you have a 1.25" or 2" receiver.

Do you have a trailer receiver? If so, yes.

If your Explorer has a 2 or 1 1/4 inch hitch receiver, yes.

Provided you have a frame mounted hitch with a reciever it will work fine.

You cannont attach it to the bumper, it needs to slide into an actual hitch.

Yes, I think your Trail Blazer comes with a 2" hitch. That's all you need.

No problem if you have a receiver hitch.

The biggest issue is the trailer hitch. Make sure it is one of the specified sizes and use the appropriate parts for that hitch.

yes i have a 06 trailblazer LT. looks good on it too

It should if you have a 1 1/4 or 2" receiver.

Do you have a trailer receiver? If so, yes.

Sure. No sweat using your 2 inch hitch on your GMC.

No problem if you have a receiver hitch.

Yup. I use it with my 2010 Silverado just fine.

I put this on the back of a Chevy Avalanche. The GMC Sierra is basically the same vehicle.

The biggest concern would be the size of your trailer hitch. If the Sierra is like my Avalanche, your hitch should be 2". Just use the shims and the proper lock bolt.

yes

yes this rack allows you to use it on a 2" or 1 1/4" hitch/receiver. I have a 2" on my F250 and a 1 1/4" on our camper and that is why we purchased this rack. Also the price was good.

Yes.

Yes, this rack will fit all 2" square hitches with the adapter provided.

yes, just take a couple wrenches and bolt it on. Can be removed easily too.

yes if you have a 1.25" or 2" trailer receiver.

Do you have a trailer receiver? If so, yes.

Yes, if you have a 2 inch or 1 14 inch hitch on your vehicle.

Yes to your question.

Yes, as long as you have a receiver hitch.

I normally carry only 1 bike on a Chevy HHR. My trick is to bungee-chord the wheels and pedals from movement. The bike would have to come unattached to scratch the car (hasn't happened yet). The rack extends rearward from the receiver approximately 6 inches.

Yes if you have a hitch receiver. O your car it would be 1 1/4. the only thing that will scratch the car is pedals. You can remove the one nearest the car during transport.

If there is a supported sized hitch (1-1/4 or 2") you should be fine.

There is about 4" between the rack and the tailgate on my truck. The handlebars of my bike do not hit the tailgate.

If you have a 1 1/4" receiver it will fit and the bikes won't touch the car. I run a bungee cord from the front to back tire on the bike closest to the car which keeps the front wheel straight.

Yes it will mount, and if you do not secure the bikes with an extra cord, they can scratch the car, however if properly tied down, this is an excellent choice.
