Hollywood Racks started in 1973 when they began making trunk racks in the back of our bike shop in Hollywood, CA. As a retailer, the company knew exactly what people needed: good quality products that were easy to use. They earned a great reputation fast and began selling racks to other dealers, and later to the bike companies. Today, Hollywood Racks builds racks the only way they know how: simple, strong, and secure.
Hollywood Racks are built with top-quality materials including high-strength steel, aircraft-quality fasteners, and thick powder coats to withstand the elements. Generous amounts of padding protect bikes and cars, and all of their products are fully covered with a limited warranty. The company's products continue to receive accolades from all the major outdoor sports magazines, and are in demand by everyone from recreational cycling families to weekend warriors to race teams on the road and off.

Hollywood Racks HR1400 Sport Rider SE 4-bike ROCKS! by .. D. Wilson ()
Looked at several racks before finding the perfect one. We haul 4 "hybrid" bikes around. None have the traditional cross bar. The Hollywood Sport Rider supports the bikes by the tires/wheels. It weighs a bit, but if you fold it up, it balances nicely and can be put into the receiver easily. Also, it has a device to tighten it up once in the receiver, so it (and the bikes) do not wobble AT ALL as you cruise down the bumpy side roads. As with most anything in life, you get what you pay for with this awesome rack. Hope this helps.
NICE RACK by .. Joan R. Allman ()
I BOUGHT THIS RACK FROM A MOM AND POP STORE IN MY HOME TOWN. I WAS RIPPED OFF AND SHOULD HAVE CHECKED IT OUT ON LINE, $307 IS A FAIR PRICE AS I PAID $350.
I LOVE THE RACK. IT IS A PAIN TO LOAD ALL OUR BIKES THE 1ST FEW TIMES BUT ONCE YOU LEARN WHERE EVERYTHING FITS IT GETS EASIER. THE RACK COMES WITH A KEY LOCKING CABLE THAT ALSO FITS THE HITCH. I STRUGGLED WITH TIE DOWNS, WHEELS TURNING AND HANDLEBARS SHIFTING ON THE RACK THAT HANGS OFF THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. THIS ONE IS MUCH MORE SECURE, NOTHING MOVES.
THE ONLY REASON I AM ONLINE IS TO GET REPLACEMENT PARTS THAT MY LAB PUPS REMOVED FROM THE UNIT. WHEN NOT IN USE STORAGE MAY BE AN ISSUE FOR SOME FOLKS, IT IS BULKY AND ABOUT 80#s. I WOULD NOT WANT TO HAUL THE FAMILY BIKES ANY OTHER WAY.
Great Bike Rack for unusual bike frames by .. Shelby Austin (California, USA)
This bike rack is great for bikes of all sizes and shapes. We have many bikes in our household and several of them are mountain bikes with unusually thick frames. These bikes would not work on the usual bike racks even with the modifier poles extending from the handle bar post to the seat post.
This is a very sturdy rack and is easy to configure is many different ways. It may take a few times to find the best configuration for your bikes but once you get the hang of it this is a great rack. I have had to be creative with my 3 year old's bike and make sure the hook came over the seat because the frame is too low for the hook to secure it. Although this rack is easy to put on and take off it is a heavy (and bulky to store) so I end up leaving it on my van even when I may not need it for a few days.
I also feel this is a safe rack in case of an accident because the arm of this rack is so low that even with bikes on the rack it is unlikely a rear end collision will result in the rack or bike handle bars coming through the rear window of the car. This happened to an acquaintance who had a "hanging style" rack.
Overall I love this rack.
Nice Rack! by .. R Powell (Rochester, NY USA)
Went together easily, and is a SOLID transport for my bikes. I only have carried mountain bikes, with wide tires so far, Kenda race King 2.5 wide fill the wheel holders completely... not sure anything wider would slide in easily. (BTW, bike is a 29er... and rack is plenty big enough.) Definitely worth it,bikes go on and off so easily, no more roof rack struggles!
Only concern is with Amazon... they suggested I purchase the seperate cable lock/locking linch pin kit to go with it. Which I did, only to find that when you buy the 4 bike rack, this set up is included. unfortunately, the additional lock kit arrived 5 days before the rest of my order, and I had already thrown away the packaging...
great bike rack for 4 bikes by .. BookWormMom (Illinois)
After much research we purchased this bike rack for our familys' four different sized bikes. We wanted the 'tray' style rack as opposed to the 'dangle' style since we felt this would be easier and protect the bikes from rubbing against each other. It is big and heavy, but I think they all are. It is pretty easy to use and keeps the bikes stable.
