This device was fairly easy to install and works pretty much as described. The good points: it is strong and shows absolutely no sign of ever bending. The lack of vertical support is not a problem at all. The "Type A" configuration clears the rear wheel nicely. I do feel it has two shortcomings, however. It is very short. I can hold a small case, but larger items stick out from the end and threaten to fall off if not firmly tied down with bungee cords. For a child or for a small bicycle, it might be long enough, but I could have used a longer rack. Also, I have found that it may swing around a bit. I know, I can tighten the clamp that holds it to the seat post to keep it firmly straight, but there is a limit to how much I am willing to tighten it without actually damaging the seat post. Possibly, over time, with firm clamping, it will settle into place, but there has been some movement during the first few weeks of using this. If this post were longer, and had an improved method of clamping to the seat post, I think it would be a better product. While I like it, I am also considering other options.Read full review

This is the only rack that I found with the upward angle that I needed for my bike. My bike has 29”tires and because I am short, the seat height is only about 8” from the frame. NO rack going in a straight line from the seat post would come close to working. This upward angle allowed the rack to clear my 29” wheels! It is also very well made, NOT junk.

My son has a small bike {bmx-type) and a post rack is his only real option. This rack is the first really sturdy rack I have found that works for him... and he was happy to get it installed and ride his bike without worrying that the rack would move around with weight on it. Definitely a win!

Got it so I could attach pannier attachments to it. Works like a charm. I have a double suspension mtn. Bike and I go a short distance with camping gear to campsite so I can have more time for trail riding while camping.
