A friend had a tire-carrier mounted SportRack on his Jeep which we
loaded with 4 freeride bikes for a fun day trip out to Whistler… of
course, as you can probably guess, the rack ripped off on the highway
while doing 120km/h. But because the rack was designed for a
ridiculously small amount of weight, the company (SportRack) refused to
cover any of the damage (which was substantial). So if your rack
collapses after jury rigging it to your class I hitch, don't expect any
sort of compensation for damages! Not to mention any other damages
incurred by other drivers!
ICBC isn't the most charitable organization around…
