You are putting wear on your rear tire, chain, sprockets, transmission, you can't back up. It's OK for a short, few mile trip, going x-country you'd probably want to remove the chain to disengage the rear wheel. They also lean the bike around turns, you have to make sure it's well strapped on. A small trailer is still cheaper and more secure, less traumatic to the bike.
