The pedal hook even has a rubberized coating on it. just completely falling apart. Not worth the money in my opinion. After removing the rubber seals on the screw mounting holes on the rails ( use a flat plastic screw driver if possible not to stcrach the paint ) screw one side of crossbar in. I remember when I used to get laughed at for wearing my Birkenstocks. Overall I’m happy with this! When you really look at them, its obvious that these are made of rubber. Definitely happy with this little unit. Also one of boxes came with two bottom pieces so i am not able to put a pair of shoes there. All of his opponents better watch out.
