This is the cheapest piece of **** powercoated item I have ever seen. After my purchase, I've heard others say that Gobi is **** quality for their paint/powercoating. The rack may be sturdy and look good, but expect to get it professionally re-powercoated after a year or so.

Not sure where you got the rack from or what the previous owner did to it. But I have the 6ft rack with tire carrier. Have had it for roughly 2 yrs and have abused it. No signs of anything related to powder coating wearing off or anything else. Also know others with gobis and no issues.

Maybe you just got a bad one
