“PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE ASSEMBLING Very good service and delivery from A1, however quite disappointed with the product itself (perhaps user error? You be the judge)
The first step requires screwing four long bolts from the base to the uprights. One would assume to tighten given this a greatest weight bearing component. However, the uprights are EXTREMELY SOFT and and before I knew it, I pretty much half crushed the upright.
There is no forewarning or advice in the instruction booklet to limit the torque.
Whilst the rack is still useable it is rather disappointing that it is almost so easy to completely destroy it at the first step.
In terms of useability, it isn’t great, as arms are very thick and incompatible with most mountain bikes.”
