    Good Points: Stable, Easy to affix, Easy to load bikes


    Bad Points: Fairly heavy


    General comments: Having found only one review of the Thule 973 BackPac, thought I should add to it. Although it's quite expensive and heavy, this is an excellent carrier, it's way more stable than those with endless straps. You can open the boot (with bikes removed) and is quick to fit (although it does take a while to assemble). Although the view through my back window was a little obscured (VW Passat Estate), it wasn't too bad, and if you put the pedals in the 3 and 9 O'clock position it's OK. Must tighten the bolts again once the carrier is loaded as they do become much looser when fully loaded. Will carry two adult MTBs and kids OK. All in all a good carrier.

    We've just got back from East Anglia and used this to transport our bikes.
    The Thule BackPac was a good carrier (we used it on a Vauxhall Zafira), but I found it blocked the rear view a bit too much for my liking.

    Anywho, I'd still recommend it to others.
