Wife has wanted a 4-bike carrier for a while! This CCM one has great reviews and for a lot cheaper then I thought we would be spending! Thanks a bunch!

This is the equivalency of saying a deal on BBQ sauce (or anything that goes with meat) isn't a deal because meat prices are high.

Wow, that CCM two bike hitch rack is exactly the same as my Thule one. My only complaint with my rack is that it holds the bikes via pressure on the top-tube rather than holding the wheels in place. For my carbon bikes I just add a rag to help protect the frame and have had no issue.

Thanks OP!

Bought the cheap $50 one that I will use once or twice a year.

Had $20 in CT money on $80 spend in Triangle app so I added two packs of Charmin and filler item.

Total was about $90 and got $22 back in CT money. Good deal.

Thanks OP. I picked up the roof box carrier. Been looking for a deal and this one looks better than the princess auto one.

Fair. Just I have crossed the country with a roof top box.
I can tell you they are far more aerodynamic than a giant roof bag that is a big blob of fabric on the roof more like a square. If anything the thule one is a bit better but still nothing I would ever consider. If you need more space may as well get the box and you will make the money back in gas overtime.

Just so you know the hitch racks are for 2" hitches not for 3.25 or 3.5".

There are adapters for various sizes but yes thanks for the reminder!

1. Buy cheap, buy twice
2. Don’t buy because it’s cheap. Buy it when needed or it brings convenience/happiness/better quality in life
3. Buy now think (regret/return) later
4. If the gut says don’t tell your lady, don’t!

We bought this 4 bike ccm carrier a few years ago, I wouldn't recommend it if you have a 2" receiver on your van,car, the adapter it comes with will fit it...but the sway is so nerve racking when you drive...it doesn't fit snug and has alot of give...I would not recommend this, unless you have the 1.25" receiver so that you do not use the adapter to size up to make it fit i your 2" hitch.

It does hold four adult bikes, takes a bit of maneuvering, but doable. Farthest I've driven is from marham to Toronto downtown on the 404/DVD and drove on the right lane all the way at 100km.
