  • Trunk Mount Bike Rack for 2016 Hyundai Tucson
  • For a trunk mount bike rack on your 2016 Hyundai Tucson you'll have to replace the rack.

  • Recommended Trunk Mounted Bike Rack for a 2023 Subaru Ascent
  • I recommend going with the Thule OutWay Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes # TH45JV. This bike rack can carry up to two 33 lb bikes, measures 24-1/2" long x 30-3/4" wide x 31" tall, and is American made. If you were open to another suggestion, a hitch mounted rack would be the better choice. Hitch mounted bike racks are far easier to set up and take down, and can hold much more weight usually than trunk mounted racks. I also understand not wanting to also buy and install a trailer hitch if you...

Instead, you'd need to use something like the Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633 instead. This bike rack will also hold up to 3 bikes like the OutWay, is also a trunk mounted bike rack, and will fit your Audi.

  • Recommended Method to Carry Two 45 Pound E-Bikes With A 2020 Lincoln MKZ
  • I went ahead and checked to see what we have for you, and the closest I was able to get to what you're needing is the Saris Bones 2 Bike Rack # SA805BL. This bike rack will mount to the trunk of your 2020 Lincoln MKZ and will allow you to transport up to two bikes weighing 35-lbs each. Theoretically, if there is a way to shed 10-lbs per bike this could work, but I understand that's a tall order. Instead, the best option for your situation is to install a trailer hitch # C12091 if one...

  • Bike Rack Options to Carry 4 Bikes with a 2017 Volvo XC90
  • To carry 4 bikes with your 2017 Volvo XC90 you do have a few different options, but the best way to go would be to install a trailer hitch receiver and use a hitch mounted bike rack. Since the most bikes that can be carried on a trunk mount bike rack is 3, the alternative solution would be to use a trunk mount bike rack and a roof rack to carry the bikes. A hitch mount bike rack is much easier to load and can be removed quicker than a trunk mount version. For your XC90 I recommend installing...

  • Anti-Sway Cage Option for a 10 Year Old Thule Trunk Mount Bike Rack
  • I spoke with my contact at Thule and he informed me that they did not make anti-sway cradles for their older bike racks. The best solution for you would be to completely replace the cradles on your bike rack with newer cradles that accept anti-sway cages. Since your bike rack already has cradles, you can replace them with the Thule Stay-Put Cradle, # 853-7887. You could then add the Stay-Put Anti-Sway Cage, # 853-7758, and straps, # 852-3006-001. Each of these items are sold individually,...

  • How to Carry 3 Bikes on a 2018 Chevy Cruze Hatchback
  • The best way to carry 3 bikes on your 2018 Chevy Cruze Hatchback and keep access to your rear hatch without removing the bikes or bike rack is to either use a hitch mount bike rack for 2 bikes and a roof mount rack for the 3rd or to carry all three bikes on the roof. These 2 options will require more of an investment than a trunk mount bike rack, but they are your best and safest options. Unfortunately, there are no trunk mount bike racks that will fit the hatchback models at this time...

  • How To Haul Bikes Using My 2022 Toyota Prius Prime
  • The Yakima FullBack 3 Bike Rack # Y02633 and any other trunk bike racks will not fit your 2022 Toyota Prius Prime because your vehicle has a glass roof and the trunk bike racks have metal clamps so they will not fit safely onto your vehicle. We do have different options for you though. I recommend installing The EcoHitch Stealth Trailer Hitch Receiver # 306-X7369.I like this trailer hitch over the other hitches that we have for your vehicle because it has a completely hidden cross tube...

  • How To Haul Bikes Using My 2007 Hyundai Azera

This trunk bike rack will safely transport 2 bikes weighing at 35 pounds per bike. The rack has an easy to use fit dial system that allows you to adjust the rack base to fit your vehicle. The no sway cages help prevent bike-to-bike and bike-to-vehicle contact. I attached a review video link below.

  • Replacement ZipStrips And Cradles For A Yakima FullSwing 4 Bike Rack
  • The Replacement Cradle for Yakima HangOut or KingJoe Trunk Mounted Bike Rack # Y8890153 that you mention is actually a cradle, and fits the HangOut and KingJoe trunk mounted bike racks, so it won't be a fit for your FullSwing 4 bike rack # Y02465. Instead what you're going to want is the: -Replacement Anti-Sway Cradle and ZipStrips for Yakima FullTilt and FullSwing Bike Racks # Y8890302. If you are needing straps also, you can use the Replacement Straps for Cradles on Thule Bike Racks...

  • Recommended Trunk Rack for 2019 Kia Soul
  • I have a solution for you, but there are no 4 bike trunk racks on the market, mostly because they're just not able to hold the additional weight safely. With that said, you can use something like the Yakima FullBack 3 # Y02633 which will carry 3 bikes weighing up to 90-lbs total. I really like the FullBack as an option because it comes with a cable lock for your bikes and a lock to keep the rack secured to your vehicle, plus the price point is a bit better than the other available choices....

  • What is Needed for a Bike Rack on a 2007 Mercedes CLK Convertible?
  • The only option to carry a bike with your 2007 Mercedes CLK convertible will be a trunk-mounted rack, since we do not currently offer a hitch for your CLK. For a trunk-mounted bike rack, I recommend the Malone Runaway 2 Bike Carrier, # MAL84RR. I have included links to video reviews of these products for you to take a look at, as well as a FAQ article on hitch-mounted racks.

  • The Thule Passage # TH910XT is confirmed to fit on the 2006 Nissan Quest but not the 2016 Honda CR-V.

  • Velcro Tie-Downs to Secure Extra Strap Material on Thule Passage Trunk-Mount Bike Rack
  • Extra strap length on a trunk-mount bike rack like your Thule Passage # TH910XT can be secured using an item like the 5-piece Swagman kit # S64765 (which are 8-inches long). The straps can also be used to secure your front wheels and handlebars so they do not move while in transit. I recommend you avoid cutting the bike rack's straps if possible.
