Verified reviews from Australian JB Racks rack owners
Best thing I've bought for the car
Had a Thule platform rack before. Sold it and got the JB 4-bike. Half the price, carries the same bikes, and loading is genuinely easier with the vertical design. Australian company too – support was brilliant when I had a question.

Perfect for our family of four riders
All four of our bikes fit perfectly, including my husband's 30 kg e-bike. The anti-wobble hitch is solid – no movement at all on the highway. Assembly took about 40 minutes. Highly recommended.

Brilliant Aussie product – nothing else comes close for the price
I compared this against the Thule T2 Pro XT which is $400 more and only holds 2 bikes. JB Racks holds 4, costs less, and ships free. It's a no-brainer. Build quality is excellent – proper thick steel.

5 bikes no problem – incredible value
We run a family of five riders. This is the only rack in Australia that carries all five bikes on one hitch. Assembly is straightforward and the rack is rock solid on the road.

Six bikes, zero drama
Runs a small cycling club. This is what we use for weekend trail days. Loaded with six 27.5in trail bikes and driven 2 hours to Stromlo – zero movement, zero drama. Outstanding product.

The bundle is the only way to buy
The slow-fold strut makes loading so much easier – especially the heavier e-bikes. The shed stand is a bonus for keeping the bikes in the garage. $300 saving on the bundle is very real value.

Lighter and cheaper – still brilliant
Got the Lite version for our road bikes. 30% lighter makes it noticeably easier to attach and detach. Bikes ride steady and the price is unbeatable.

Great rack – great value
Great rack! Just took it out for the first time fully loaded, and it handled everything with ease. Shipping could've been faster, but overall it's a great value.
