It has Thule's Stay-Put cradles that protect your bikes and boasts an anti-sway design to keep your bikes from swinging together or hitting your vehicle. The arms fold down when not in use. An integrated locking cable and locking knob make it easy to secure bikes to the carrier and the carrier to the vehicle.
It is a secure mount. It allows my tailgate to be opened while I have my bikes mounted on it. The only weak point is the safety strap which will likely need replacing every year.
I bought this product to carry my bike on my Defender 90. As expected, it was very easy to put my bike on. I had a hard time removing and attaching the spare tire by myself.
