Good Rack, not enough heel clearance on panniers for my bike.
I got this rack for a single speed road bike and while the rack had plenty of clearance for the 700c tire, the rack was too far forward and too short for my pannier bag to mount without causing heel strike. I gave the rack a couple days to see if I could figure something out but I gave up after my heel knocked the pannier off the top rails and into the spokes, tearing the bag slightly. Ultimately this is user error and I want to emphasize that the rack is sturdy, lightweight, and easy to install, but it was too small to do its job, and I found that other racks that have an extra drop bar to prevent panniers from getting caught in the wheels are much more useful for that job.

Bare bones, has hardware, easy to attach
Mounted this to a girl's 2013 24" gloss cruiser. It rides plenty high over the rear wheel on the 24", and with the gloss cruiser, I needed to buy a second part, a seat clamp with mount points. I found a matching metal finish one. You might want to buy a red rear reflector, if you don't have a spare (I have lots of old parts around). Comes with the hardware to screw into the frame and seat clamp, rack itself, and a pair of slim mounting rails with a pair of bolts to secure them to the frame (each). It also came with some clamps I didn't need, rubber dipped to protect a bike frame, in case I wanted to mount the strips (or the bottom legs) to the frame somewhere. And a rear reflector hanger bracket with its hardware (no reflector). And instructions, which I used to figure out which bolts were for what. Seems durable, and doesn't move, once secured on sides and at the top. I was able to assemble everything with a set of allen wrenches, a screw driver, and a ratchet set (you could use a pair of pliers). Having never installed a bike rack before, the process was somewhat easy. Inspect the target bike to ensure you have left/right pretapped bike rack holes on the rear wheel. Inspect the bike to ensure you know (or can create a place) where the metal braces will attach at the top. Do research to see how racks are commonly attached, and order any additional missing hardware. I took this time to order a new tool, a precision calipers, to measure the size of my bike's seat post tube, so I could buy the right size seat post clamp. A shop would tell you. I replaced my seat clamp first, and removed reflectors and lights from my seat post (to move them to the rack later). I carefully unbagged the rack, because some hardware was rattling in its bag, and I didn't want to lose any pieces. I found the large mounting bolts, and used them to secure the rack legs to the frame, next to my rear wheel. I undid all the little bolts holding the mounting strips to the rack, and used another pair of large mounting bolts to fix them to the new seat clamp. I held each strip, one at a time, next to the rack, gently holding it bent into position, and added one small bolt to hold it in place. I tightened the bolt all the way with allen wrench/socket set, and then moved my hold to bend the strip in place for the next bolt. Then I added the rear reflector bracket with its bolt. And I used a spare rear reflector, and a spare screw from my toolkit, to add a reflector.

Good for standard bikes, trickier for vintage bikes like mine.
EDIT 2/22/2016: My bike is old (1970s) and does not have a place to screw the top part into the main frame of the bike. This has become quite problematic. I was using bungee cords to attach the top and screws for the bottom to attach to the back wheel, but I think this puts more pressure on those wheel screws and twice they have come apart. The first time happened about a month after purchasing it. Remembering another reviewer had recommended getting more durable screws, I went to my local hardware store, picked out what I thought were the right type of screws and used some bungee cords to be safe. It happened again, a few months later. I went back to the hardware store and asked for advice this time. The sales guy was helpful and recommend an extra component to the screw to lock it in place. I apologize that I can't remember what it was called, but I'm sure you could find the same easily enough. It was all very cheap (some odd cents) so definitely worthwhile. This held up much longer, but one night I had just begun my commute and went up a brick street I normally avoid. No sooner had I begun than the bike rack jolted into my back wheel and I sprawled onto the ground. The rack was wrenched into my back wheel so tightly that I had to carry the bike home (2 miles) and it took much effort to extricate it. I haven't attempted to fix it since as this coincided with winter weather. I realize that it's not completely fair to knock this as most bikes should be fine. But I couldn't get the top two levers to extend far enough to attach to my main frame via the u-shaped gizmo I bought separately for this purpose. So I think there should be more thought put into designing a bike rack that can accommodate bikes like mine. Thus knocking down two stars. Here's my original review: I'm writing this to assure non-bike whizzes like me that this will probably work just fine for you. I know very little about nuts and bolts and the physics behind things like this, and so if it was pretty easy for me to figure this out (there are also brief instructions) then I think most folks will have similar successes. My bike is a '76 Raleigh (Super Course MK II, if you're curious) and I knew it wouldn't have the convenient attachment points of more modern bikes. I thought I would have to buy separate parts, but this came with two things that helped attach the top portion. Where the bottom part attaches my bike already had holes. I ended up having to go to the hardware store to get a slightly longer screw (these are 10-32s, FYI) because one of the sides was just a little too far out of reach with the extra attachment for the top that I had to use. I should have taken pics before I attached the basket, but I was so excited to be done with this project that I steamrolled ahead. (The basket I bought at Home Depot-- it is meant as a storage shelf but now I can fit my CSA share box inside, which was otherwise too big for a milk carton. I attached this with thick zip ties I got online. Also milk cartons seem to be a much harder commodity than I was aware of! Mini bungee cords help things not to fall out.) Hope this helps! :)

Fits, does what it should
I got this as refurbished from Amazon. It looked brand new with the cardboard still on the rack and all, however, the packet of hardware had been opened and taped shut and I was missing most of the washers. I think I needed 8 and there were 3. We had some similar washers around, so I used them, but that was annoying and it wasn't discounted all that much. The rack seems sturdy and came with a bracket to add a reflector or light on the back. But doesn't come with a reflector. I had to take the one that came with my bike on the back of the seat and put it on this bracket. Ok, but either my reflector was smaller than average or the bracket was made larger than average because while it stayed on, it rattled something fierce. I dabbed some hot glue on and it should stop rattling. There is a shortage of racks, and anything bicycle apparently, and it seems they may be price gouging because of it. I feel the price is way too high for what it is. Especially, used and without all the hardware.

Inexpensive rack that does the job and appears to be quite tough.
Have used it with panniers and overloaded it with drybags and tents etc. No issues so far, a lot of that has been offroad on rocky rooty singletrack and doubletrack, so seems quite tough.

Perfect! Except one thing.
Perfect fit for Trek FX 1 Easy installation. Sleek, strong and light. The only minus is that the rear mounting light bracket is sold separately.

Excellent price, excellent product
Excellent price, excellent product, well built. Easy to install, it allows for some adjustments to fit any bike size. It also came with all the necessary hardware.
