I just got a 2-bike trunk mounted Thule speedway. The first time I used it,
the sidestraps loosened and unhooked. This was after a short drive. The
next few times I used it and mounted the sides tightly, they still came
loose but did not unhook. These were all after short 5 mile drives. I've
been reluctant to drive farther with the bikes hitched.
I can tie the straps differently to make sure they don't come loose, but
wasn't it supposed to be easy to mount? I'm thinking of returning it for a
Yakima Mojo instead. Is that any better?
OR, are the side straps supposed to be loose?
