pvanderstoep,
Welcome to the site. First off, do you have any preferences for the style of carrying your bikes? As in, there's the "Hanging" style that the bikes hang from a cross bar and clamps at the top. Then there's the type that are "Cradle" carriers that, capture the tires/wheels of the bikes and are held in place by a sliding, padded down clamp. I prefer and, in deed have the latter one.
Ours is made by "Xpsport" and has worked flawless. Thule makes the same style of cradle units but is considerably more costly. There are other brands out there but, those two come to mind. There's one more that's a cradle style just like mine but, it has a ratcheting system for the down clamp. I really like that one but, I can't remember the name or brand of it right now.
The Xport model we have has a built in adapter that utilizes a 2" receiver or, the smaller 1 1/2" receiver too. We really like that 'cause we have both size receivers for different purposes.
Scott
