“Overall pleased with the purchase of Velocirax 5. We have taken several trips to Whistler and rack has held up from Washington State. Easy-to-use for the entire family. I have bottomed out when it was unloaded (once backing and another time exiting a driveway). Overall, Happy with purchase.”

“Our Honda Pilot handled this beauty easily and with for silly vibes and one kid bike, the vehicle barely noticed. You do have to give the tack a good shoulder press to get it locked in street tube loaded the bikes. My wife couldn’t do it. If you’re strong enough, the system is amazing!”

“Torn on how to rate the 5. 5x is in all honesty the best rack I’ve owned to include 1up tray and vertical, north shore and LOLO. The 5 on the other hand is not suitable for 5 mountain bikes and flat pedals. The contact points are very small margins and on shuttle roads that are almost always gravel fire roads.. there will be touching. Now the 5X on the other hand… !! tons !! Of spare room between each bike! Easy loading and unloading, the hydraulic lowering is the best option out there! My wife can easily load her emtb up and push the rack into place. The tray style and other vertical racks we have had for thr family meant she won’t take the e bike with out me there to load it. We love the 5x however thr 5 regular is inadequate for any bike I can think of. It just doesn’t fit bikes in each slot with clearance between each bike. Side note the garage solution racks from velocirax is awesome also. Our family fleet of 9 bikes all hang neatly out of the way of our trucks and kid strollers! It’s nice to have the option of 5 rack but I just don’t see its useful purpose. Just do the 5X and save yourself the headache of bikes touching”

“Pricey but worth every penny. Anti wobble works. Took it from CA to Oregon with 5 bikes and this thing rocks. Only thing I would have done differently was buy the 5x with extra spacing between bikes cus the geometry of my road bikes causes rubbing”

“I did a lot of research by the time I finally decided to get the VelociRAX 5 and I have not been disappointed. The rack arrived very well packaged and every piece feels bomb-proof and fits together well. Assembly was not difficult, but there was some nuance to tightening each bolt just right. As far as use, this rack is a heavy beast to move around, so always a two-adult job to install (maybe one could uninstall solo, but probably not advisable). Once on, though, I have absolutely no complaints. It's rock solid, looks great and I have gotten tons of compliments and questions about it. I've carried a variety of MTB to hybrid to kids bikes down to 20" tires over 100s of miles of interstate and back roads all without a hint of an issue. The garage rack function is awesome as well, and a huge perk so that I don't have a giant rack like this lying around collecting dust when not on my car. My only other word of caution is that this thing sticks out far and does weigh the back end of our Kia Telluride down a fair amount when fully loaded with five bikes. I had one instance where I went straight off a steep driveway curb and audibly nailed the end of the rack straight into concrete. The rack and the car were totally fine, but not the most pleasant thing to have happened. Overall, this rack is 100% worth every dollar if you need to carry 5 bikes safely.”

“Best bike rack on the market. Phenomenally well made. Ease of use is like nothing I’ve had in other bike racks. Can not recommend enough! Chip in Tucson using a 5 Wide rack”
