What no Fancy title?
It's a a rack. It goes on your bicycle. It carries stuff. Enough said.
I purchased this particular model because it had a Cycling Plus best buy, and had positive reviews elsewhere. I have a daily 22 mile commute, and need to carry quite a bit of kit, including shower stuff and a change of clothes - my walking rucksack was starting to get rather heavy. The rack comes in silver or black - I bought the black one. The Expedition is a heavy-duty rack, weighing in at 900g with a carrying capacity of 30kg, and comes with a handy bracket for mounting a rear light.

Advantages: Great rack for the money Disadvantages: Needs more positioning holes
The Powerline Power Rack is a perfectly adequate entry level power rack and robust enough for domestic use. I bought this product about 2 years ago and it has taken some serious punishment in my garage gym and it's still as structurally sound as the day I got it.
It comes with easy-to-assemble instructions and requires nothing more specialist than an adjustable wrench or a socket set to assemble.
When looking for a decent power rack I kept coming back to this one, mainly because of the price and while it is pretty basic in comparison to some of the all-singing-and-dancing commercial alternatives, it still offers the same safety function of its more expensive counterparts.
