First off, Yes I have wires hanging down. This was a test run to see how it would fit. I went with CURT 53201 Auxiliary Automotive LED Light Strips for the rack. I couldn't justify paying $100 for their lights and still having to drill and tap into the hitch rack. These were $20 off of Amazon. Easy to install. I went with 4 stars. Sadly, it came busted/scratched up, probably due to shipping. We all know how shipping companies are. Especially with heavy items. Some touch-up paint marker and it looks normal-ish. I do not like their no-wobble bolt (it's a skinnier bolt unlike the normal ones used). Even with it tightened down, it still wobbles. I will probably take it somewhere to have the holes drilled out to normal-sized hitch holes. That way you can fit the normal-sized bolts through the hitch arm post. I purchased their tie-downs as well. They work well, but I meant to get the ratchet one, not the tie-downs. Overall, I would recommend this product to anyone. It is easy to put together, It's heavy-duty, and it will hold up long-term.

These tie downs are working great with our Specialized Globe Haul s

I submitted a review shortly after receiving our mini dual and it is a great product.

I recently bought the strap bundle. Plus I bought the dual mini ebike rack a little while back didn’t get the straps the same time thinking I would get that style later. After researching these straps these were more suited for my ebikes in width. Back to the rack it’s great I love it. I also researched a lot of racks , finding this was the best one for the weight it could carry (my bikes are rated at 80 lbs each) plus the ease of loading and securing. Also it just looks cool ! So far I’m very pleased! Added plus in both, the shipping arrived sooner than estimated.
