Here is one of my babies. Surly 1x1. Steel is real!
I have plenty more bikes, but I'll leave that to the bike thread on the "anything and everything" area.
The rack is the Hollywood rack that I was talking about earlier. It pushes a padded hook down on the top tube of the bike and the wheels sit in trays that can be adjusted for different wheel bases. I really like the design, as I can have two bikes loaded or unloaded in a matter of seconds. All of the bars and trays can fold out of the way just by pulling pins.

I wish I'd known about the T2 folding down instead of up like the Hookup.
I like Intense. I've always wanted a full-on DH Intense setup. Maybe next summer...
I ride:
Rocky Mountain Element TO
Rocky Mountain RM6
Rocky Mountain Slayer SXC90
I usually get over not scratching the paint after the first involuntary dismount. (Hmm, no over the bars smiley.)

The T2 is slick. It folds up out of the way and down so you can open the door or hatch which ever car its on. Im going to get the add on so I can haul 4 bikes on the Jeep this summer.
I have my Intense set up with a front derailer so I can xc or dh it.

I might check out the T2 next time a place that is easy to return stuff to has a sale on them. I have a 2 door so only being able to carry two bikes is fine with me.
My RM6 is set up similarly with a front derailuer , small and middle chain ring, and a polycarbonate rock ring. The large ring never worked right with all the bent teeth from hitting rocks. The Slayer still has all its rings and teeth.
Who makes those white brake levers?
Let us know when you try the T2 on the JK and if the inner bike tray is capable of holding a bike or not.

Thule bike rack
Here are some pics of my Thule rack. It's great.
Agees.com has the best deals on Thule stuff.
It's a little tough to get the rack to lock in the upright position
due to the tire.
I've got a locking pin(thule) that keeps the rack from finding a new owner.
Rack is expandable to 4 positions as shown on an earlier post.
