I have the swagman version. It's ok. It works, but can be a royal pain when using a variety of bikes. If we go on a trip with road bikes, the mountain bikes, 29er or downhill, lining everything up so they fit and aren't rubbing can take time. Then of course the next trip, I'm taking different bikes, so I have to shift everything around. It frustrates me. There are better designs out there, but of course, you pay $1000 for those. I'm looking at getting a Kuat this summer.
A buddy loosens his headset and turns his handlebars and removes his seats...that seems to make life easier, but then you're messing with that at the trailhead.
