| 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful  Great Roof Top Rack, By Don Jr (Rochester, NY USA) - See all my reviews Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Yakima Viper Bike Mount (Sports) I just got back from a week camping trip in the Adirondacks with this unit. It hauled my Gary Fisher Kaitai perfectly. I used it backwards so I could have my girlfriends bike and the canoe on top as well. It's easy to use but you must read the instructions so you know how to set it depending on whether or not it's outside the towers. I drove about 450 miles doing around 60-68 mph on winding roads and never had an issue. This rack is good for bikes with disc brakes. 6 of 7 people found the following review helpful  Harder to install than other Yakima bike racks, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Yakima Viper Bike Mount (Sports) I used to have two Steelhead bike carriers but one was damaged during an unfortunate incident involving roof-mounted bikes and a low parking structure (ouch). I bought the Viper as it seemed like an upgrade, and I must say it's a bit more solidly build than the Steelhead, but there's a few things I don't like.I don't keep the racks on my truck all the time, only when I'm going biking. Taking off and mounting the Steelhead was basically a clip-on task, and didn't change the skewer length so it was always ready to fit your forks. Putting the Viper on involved completely removing the skewer bolt and re-threading on the lock mechanism from the end, having to thread it on an overly long length of threads. And this is done by having to hold up the lock lever and turn this rough knurled knob that always chafes my fingertips, and it's tough to do because only a small edge of the knob is exposed when you lift up the lever. Then when it's mounted, you have to put your bike up...

I trust a $6500 Carbon Fiber Trek roadie and a $1500 Trek MTB to this thing. You can install w/ your eyes closed. Always remember to put a piece of masking tape above eye level on the inside of your windshield once bikes are mounted on top- this will remind you of just that- and help you avoid low clearance Taco Bell drive throughs! :-P |
