It has rubber cradles for a secure hold and a rubber bumper along the vertical support to help protect the frames from marring and scratches. The bike rack also features a tilting frame for easy access to the trunk or other rear cargo area, and the arms can be folded down for compact storage of the bike rack when not in use.
