About Allen Bike Racks
In 1967, after a few years of working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Dick Allen was out of a job. Government cutbacks led Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist, to transform his garage hobby into a new industry. A cycling enthusiast, inventor, and family man, Allen had a personal need for a bike-carrying device. On weekends, he would take his sons and wife to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire. What proved difficult time and again was the transport of his family’s bicycles. Rather than fight through inconvenience with twine and a dinged car, Allen sought an answer for himself as well as a market in which he foresaw major growth possibilities.

Always a pathfinder, Allen took to work in his Lincoln, Massachusetts garage in search of a more efficient way to transport bikes. Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, he put together a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding). At first, the Allens’ tested the prototype on weekend excursions. Finding the first trunk-mounted rack to be a success, Dick started Allen Bike Racks. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971 Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors. Today, the company owns over three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks while Dick’s son Alex now owns and operates the business. What started out as a small garage run operation now operates three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and has products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world.

4 bike trunk carrier
We have been very happy with this product. We bought the bike carrier to take a long trip with all 4 bikes. It worked great. Very easy to put and the all 4 four bikes which ranged in sizes 18", 24", 24" and 26" fit fine.
There was some vibrating that we had to get used to once you reached a certain speed.I would also suggest you place a towel under the middle of the carrier that sits on your trunk to protect the paint.
Other wise it was a very good purchase.

Excellent Product
Excellent Product. I was looking for a bike rack which can carry 4 bikes and wouldn't need a hitch since I don't have one. This one fits the perfectly on my Minivan. It is very easy to attach and take off (if you are worried about it getting stolen while your are out biking). I haven't tried 4 bikes on it yet, but it seems very sturdy and holds 3 bikes very securely. Although I kept looking in my rear view mirror to see if the bikes were secure, there was no need. The bikes were held securely even at highway speeds. So far so good.

Affordable, user friendly 4 bike rack!
This rack is easy to install but quite a bit heavier than the one I already own. Very sturdy and secure with all the attachment straps and tie-downs. We bought foam tubing to cushion/protect bikes at contact points. I recommend this rack if you need a 4 bike carrier and don't have a trailer hitch.

Allen Bike Rack
The Allen 4-Bike trunk mount rack was one of only a few available capable of holding 4 bikes. It was easy to mount, easy to secure, easy to tie the Bikes down to, and easy to undo everything as well. Folds up relatively flat and is light weight. Very happy with the purchase

Sturdy and easy to install!
this is my first bike mount rack. I was a bit 'worry' about the strength and the installation. But it's quite easy to install and it's seem very sturdy. It doesn't bounce at all. Highly Recommended!!
