So just odd shaped frames. It's gonna be made out of a durable steel construction. It's gonna last you a long time and be rust resistant as well. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Nissan Xterra- Video

And I think it's just a more secure connection than your frame mounted style. But it's gonna be great for your odd shaped frames, as well as your carbon frames. It's not going to warp or damage that frame. more
