Difference Between Hollywood Racks Traveler and Road Runner
Question:
Hello, Im trying to understand the differences between the Hollywood Racks - Traveler and Road Runner. As I look at them on the website they seem to be near identical minus the Road Runner coming with the hitch and cable locks. Thanks for your time!

Expert Reply:
There are a couple more differences in the Hollywood Racks Road Runner item # HR520 and the Hollywood Racks Traveler 5 Bike Carrier HR9200 than the included hitch pin and cable lock. The lower brace on the Road Runner provides anchor points for stabilization straps to run through. This keeps the wheels and tires from spinning while you're driving. The Traveler does not have this feature. The Road Runner has a 150 lbs capacity and the Traveler can carry five bikes up to 35 lbs a piece. The Road Runner also has an integrated anti-wobble handle on the front of the carrier that tightens the bike-rack shank to your hitch receiver to prevent the rack from rattling around inside the receiver.
