I bought a set of the Rhino straps last year. They have impressed me as being some damned strong straps. The do come with the soft ties.

Whatever strap you use, you have to flick the taut strap and say, "That's not going anywhere."

I own the 4 strap Power Tye set with carry bag. I've got thousands of miles use on them and loaned to friends. Absolutely no issues and they look and work like new. Worth every $.

No... Very good example of people who have little practical experience or understanding of weight distribution and mass inertia on top heavy swaying object's.

Great idea for a static sitting machine, not so much for a moving one and our road conditions. One heavy panic side jink or a PA pothole and it'll rip either the clamp bar off the frame or peel the base mounts up

And you have to grab the handlebars and try to shake the bike from side to side every time you stop.

i see those mostly in toy haulers. youd probably flip the toy hauler before you seperated the bike from that or the floor.

Exactly. Rock solid. I forget just how big the bolts are but this rig is going nowhere and neither is the bike.

I’ve been using Rhino straps for 4 years. Six bikes, 18,000 trailer miles. 8 times crossing the Rocky Mountains. Zero issues.
