Personally, it is a step in the right direction , but I would not buy it as you have to buy several add ons to actually secure the bike. There are no locks, you would (probably) need a stabilizer bar to keep bike(s) from shifting. By the time you add this to a base price of $200, you are approaching $400 real quick.
