500L locking hitch pin and three keys About Allen Bike Racks
In 1967, after a few years of working on the aerospace technology for the Apollo missions, Dick Allen was out of a job. Government cutbacks led Allen, a Harvard-trained physicist, to transform his garage hobby into a new industry. A cycling enthusiast, inventor, and family man, Allen had a personal need for a bike-carrying device. On weekends, he would take his sons and wife to Cape Cod or the White Mountains of New Hampshire. What proved difficult time and again was the transport of his family's bicycles. Rather than fight through inconvenience with twine and a dinged car, Allen sought an answer for himself as well as a market in which he foresaw major growth possibilities. Always a pathfinder, Allen took to work in his Lincoln, Massachusetts garage in search of a more efficient way to transport bikes. Drafting designs during the day and constructing them throughout the night, he put together a model made of electrical conduit, metal strapping, and fire hose casings (for padding). At first, the Allens' tested the prototype on weekend excursions. Finding the first trunk-mounted rack to be a success, Dick started Allen Bike Racks. Dealer acceptance came quickly, and by 1971 Allen Bike Racks were sold nationally through a number of major bicycle distributors. Today, the company owns over three dozen patents and offers a versatile product line of bike racks while Dick's son Alex now owns and operates the business. What started out as a small garage run operation now operates three warehouses nationally, two factories abroad, and has products sold in more than a dozen countries around the world.

 Stainless steel locking pin January 20, 2007

The item is too expensive for a screw and a lock. If someone wants to steal your hitch, it can be done by unscrewing the other components (there are other screws in the bike rack which can be taken out).
In other words, too much money for a screw!!
Works as it should June 19, 2007

Fits the receiver hole and it locks and unlocks fine. Only had it a month so I don't know if anything happens to it over time (e.g. corrosion)
Hitch pin lock for bike rack July 28, 2007
Walter W. Nowak (Chicago, Il.)
This is a very secure and dependable hitch lock that is also an anti-wobble device. Recommending a good buy for anyone who owns compatible Allen bike rack.
Does what it is supposed to do. April 6, 2008
D. McCormack (Vienna, VA USA)
Not a lot to say - it simply does what was intended. It secures the Allen 4 bike carrier I also purchased from Amazon and eliminates any movement from the carrier. The easy-to-use lock makes sure it all stays on my Yukon. I've been driving around for 2 weeks with it on - no worries.
It does lock December 18, 2006

This is one of those things to foil the casual thief. It does fine as a replacement for the usual non-locking hitch pin. It will not keep your bikes safe. The Allen Hitch Mount bike rack is three steel pieces that get bolted together into a fairly nice rack. A thief can remove at most two bolts (a smart thief removes only one bolt) and steal the bikes. You are left with the lower one or two steel pieces.
I'm going to use locktite on the bolts so they permantly seize. No one will ever unbolt my rack. Then the lock makes sense.
