Tilt Away Bike Rack Options for 2013 Hyundai Tucson
Question:
I have a 2 inch hitch on a 2013 Hyundai Tucson. I am looking for a tilt away, platform bike rack for @$600 dollars/give or take for a FX 3 and I would like to still be able to use my back-up camera if possible. I have list 3 options below mainly bc some review say that the bar is hard on the paint job of bikes, what would be your suggestion for best fit or is there something else I didnt mention. 1 Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2 Hitches - Wheel Mount Item # Y02443 2 Swagman Chinook 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4 and 2 Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting Item # S64683 3 Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2-Bike Platform Rack - 2 Hitches - Tilting - Gray Item # SH22G

Expert Reply:
Of the options that you have researched and the points you identify, I suggest the Yakima HoldUp # Y02443. This is a highly reviewed product and currently has a 4.8 rating. With your concerns of damage to your bikes painted surface this is good option since it secures the bikes without frame contact. The versatile design holds most bikes regardless of frame design, suspension, or brake style and provides your desired tilt down option. It also has available add-on that lets you convert the rack to carry 4 bikes with # Y02446. As for use of the backup camera, most any bike rack attached to your hitch has potential to cause interference when folded up. The available adjustments of cradles on this model has potential to minimize interference.
