Looking at the pictures you can see the anodized Aluminum extrusion and the Powder-Coated Steel construction. The Access Versa Rack is the most compact and lightweight receiver mounted rack available. This rack holds two bikes and the telescoping tubes adjust to fit your bikes size. It folds up when you are not using it. Just like the Access Dura Rack the Versa has spring loaded pull pin release for easy tilt up & down

 and QuietRide™ locking & tightening anti-rattle technology.

The Access Versa Rack has an MSRP of $299.99 we sell it for $269.99
These two hitch racks are not the cheapest in their field but, they are close to ½ the cost of the bigger name brands. The most expensive is not always the best. So, you don’t need to shop, Softride Access hitch mounted bike racks are the best value.
