I couldn't be happier with my Surco. It is light enough for me to easily handle alone, but it is surprisingly strong. I have stood on it several times. It doesn't make any rattles or creeks with a 31" up top.
X2 on that. I also really like my Surco. Its a good rack for the price.

I love my Surco, just zip-tie the crossbars. It reduces the noise, but its still a great rack.
