If I want to get a bike in the middle, do I have to remove the other bikes to the left or right of it before accessing?

No, you can remove a bike from the middle without removing the other bikes.

If there are 6 bikes on it, then yes, you do have to pull another one off to access. But if only 4 or 5 bikes on, then no. Hope this helps!

Nope, the hooks actually slide so you can jus lt push them to make a little room if needed.

Nope, not usually. Most of the time you can shift the other bikes a bit to lift bikes in the middle out. We are very happy with our Monkey Bar Rack.

The 'X' is where there is a slot/opening to put a lock through. One side of the X opens. Yes it is on both sides. It has a Velcro closure in the middle of the X. The X is a feature on the BikeParka URBAN. The BikeParka STASH does not have the X opening.

Yes, but getting 5 bikes on it will be very difficult. I use the crossover bar then I'm able to have all bike at the same level so handle bars align perfectly; its the only way to get them all to fit.

No. It will hold about 6 bikes total. We currently have ours with 3 on each side.

There is a right side rack and a left side rack so make sure you order the correct side

Yes, but the there aren't any directions. You have to look at the picture and see where it goes. As long as you don't mistake the front of the bike from the back you shouldn't have a problem.

I orient mine on the right side of the bike. That gives me plenty of room yo both raise the bike and slowly return it to the kick stand. Also I use a22mm socket on a 1/2" ratchet. It is a good system providing you are cautious about gently pushing the bike to the left as you lower the lift. Slow and easy is the key.

Sorry. The rack is attached to the trunk. Theoretically, the trunk would open but the weight of the bikes and the rack will be on the trunk.

I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and we can open the hack without taking the bikes off. We remove the pin to rack and lean it down. You need to hold onto the bikes and the rack does not lean down all the way.

Yes, front and back.......quick release levers is usually on left side of wheel.. Bike is in stock at Dick's Spoting Goods and you can see it there.

The rack I have has room for three bikes. Yes you can get three bikes on the rack by facing bikes in alternating directions

If you're speaking in regards to only hauling two bikes directly opposed to one another on one section of the 4 bike carrier, they both directly mount with the forks and rear frame portion pressed against the padding of the tubular uprights. What my wife and I do to oovercome handlebar interference is mount one bike facing in one direction and turn the other in the opposite direction. Her handlebars then are positioned just above my seat. If you used it in the 4 bike configuration and only carried one bike on each upright section, handlebar interference wouldn't be an issue. Check out some YouTube videos on loading and unloading it. That may shed more light on your question.

Hi, The middle part (shoulder) which connects left and right parts has not parallel connection surface. It's done especially to keep bars extended outwards. Looks like you connected it wrong way. Just unscrew it and connect it versa (upper bolt should go down), i.e. station bars will extend outwards.

There is a lever at the back that you move to one side and it separates the bottom part and the top part. I'm assuming that's what you are wanting to do.

Mine is free standing with normally two bikes on it. It is still very stable when I remove the bottom bike and leave the top one. In fact, that is typically the arrangement.

In order to install the bike rack, I had to move the spare tire from the middle of the bumper to the left side. I couldn't move the tire to the right side, because the R.V. ladder is attached to the right side. The bike rack partially obscures the license plate (I don't know if that's legal or not), but I can get two bicycles comfortably attached. When I have the bicycles on my car bike rack, they obscure the license plate even more. Since you are rarely going to be involved in a speeding issue towing a trailer, it may not matter too much if the license plate is partially obscured. Marc B.

I dont think so. It doesnt seem to be long enough (left to right) or wide enough depth (front t.o back) to hold 4 bikes. I think mostly due to the pedals & stuff gtting tangled. You wouldnt be able to neatly stack them next to each other.
