Expert Answers about GMC Truck Bed Bike Racks


  • 3-Bike Truck-Bed Bike Rack Recommendation
  • We offer several truck bed bike racks, but the 3 Bike Floor Stand # S64018 that you referenced would not work as a bike rack for the bed of your truck. Attempting to do so would most likely damage your bikes and truck bed as well as endanger other motorists. Check out the link I attached that shows all of the truck bed bike racks we offer that are confirmed to work in a truck bed. For a truck bed bike rack that would carry three bikes like the rack you referenced I would recommend the...

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack Recommendation for a 1999 Chevrolet S10 Extended Cab Pickup
  • As long as the front wheel on your bike is connected to the front fork with a 9-mm quick mount skewer, you can bolt the Yakima BlockHead bike carrier, # Y01117, to any part of the truck bed that is sufficient to carry the bike, normally the truck bed rails. This carrier requires drilling and bolting the head to your truck bed. I would recommend the Thule Bed-Rider 2, # TH822XTR, fork mount rack, that can be easily installed and removed, and uses the same style of fork mount attachment....

  • Availability of a 2 Bike Truck Bed Mounted Bike Rack
  • Yes, we have the Swagman Patrol 2 Bike Rack for Truck Beds - Fork Mount # S64701 which is a fork mounted option. You could alternatively use two of the Thule Insta-Gater Truck Bed Single Bike Racks that you referenced if your truck bed is at least 40 inches wide. I attached a link to an FAQ page on truck bed bike racks that you might find informative also.

  • Recommended Truck Bed Bike Rack on 2016 GMC Sierra 3500 with Side Rails
  • I have a truck bed bike rack for you, but unfortunately the Yakima Timberline Towers # Y33TR are not made to connect to the raised side rails of your truck bed. To carry bikes on a bike rack mounted in the bed of your 2016 GMC Sierra 3500 I recommend checking out the RockyMounts Truck Bed Track # RKY10995 and pairing that with a RockyMounts LoBall Locking Truck Bed Bike Rack # RKY1096 for each bike. The track permanently installs on your truck bed and then the LoBall is lockable so your...

  • What Truck Bed Bike Rack is Recommended for a 2015 Ford F-150
  • I recommend the Thule Bed-Rider 2 Bike Rack # TH822XTR, it is confirmed to fit on your 2015 Ford F-150 by Thule. This way if you are needing to carry an extra bike, you can carry it using the Thule 1 Bike Add-On # THBRLB2. The Swagman can only carry up to 2 bikes at a time, so this is why I recommend the Thule Bed-Rider. The Bed-Rider requires the bikes you are carrying to have 9-mm quick-release front-wheel-skewers. The Bed-Rider has a one-key system lock to secure your bikes to the...

  • How To Mount 2 Bikes In The Bed Of A Truck
  • I have a possible solution for you, however, we do not carry the Uni-Grip Truck Bed Bike Rack. The closest product available would likely be the Swagman Pick-Up Truck-Bed-Mounted 2 Bike Carrier - Locking - Fork Mount # S64702 which is compatible with just about any truck bed and is a very affordable option. The adjustable width is 52"-69" and the weight capacity is 80lbs total. It is designed to carry 2 bikes by the forks but you can add a 3rd bike by using an additional fork-mount block...

  • What Truck Bed Rack do You Recommend with the RAK Revolver X4?
  • A great bike rack to use in your truck bed along with the BAK Revolver X4 Hard Tonneau Cover is the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack - 1 Bike # TH93VR. The Insta-Gater is great because unlike bike racks that use a fork mount to the bed's side rails, the Insta-Gater attaches at the truck's tailgate. This allows for you to avoid any potential damage to the rails of the Revolver. This is the closest option to have bike rack compatibility with your Revolver without the rack damaging...

This will allow you to carry four bikes by hanging over your tailgate on this padded carrier. Each bike will be held by a strap on your downtube.

  • Best Truck Bed Bike Rack For 2020 Chevy Colorado
  • I recommend 2 sets of the Inno Velo Gripper Bike Rack for Truck Beds - Clamp On part # INRT201 for the bed of the 2020 Chevy Colorado. The Inno Gripper does not require cutting the bed liner in the new truck (if the truck has a bed liner) like with other truck bed bike rack options. It also comes with protective plates for the top of your bed rails to protect the paint. The Inno grips the bikes by their frame so you will not have to worry about taking the front wheel off every time you...

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack Recommendation for a 1986 Toyota Pickup
  • I may have an option that will work for you, but I do not believe the Topline Truck Bed Bike Rack will work with your truck. It was designed for truck bed walls with an inside lip. Instead, I recommend looking at a bike rack like the Thule Insta-Gater Pro, # TH93VR. This is a wheel mount bike rack that also does not require a lip. I have attached video reviews for each of these bike racks for you to check out.

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack for Ariel Rider D Class E-Bike
  • The Inno Velo Gripper # INRT201 would work great to secure your Ariel Rider D Class e bike in the bed of your truck as it's compatible with fat tire bikes. This is a clamp on style rack that fits to bed rails without tracks/channels. If you have a cargo management system in your truck bed that has channels or tracks we have the channel mount version part # INRT202. These racks attach to the bike frame down tube and provide a secure attachment in the truck bed. We've had customer use...

  • Are End Plate Pins of Swagman Pick-Up Truck-Bed Bike Rack Installed Before Installing Rack in Bed
  • Yes, you have it right; you will indeed install the end plate pins into the end pad first before completing the installation in your truck bed of the Swagman bike rack: - Swagman Pick-Up Truck-Bed-Mounted 2 Bike Carrier - Locking - Fork Mount # S64702 These end plate pins will only be necessary if you have a bed liner; the pins will offer the needed stability for the rack.

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack For Truck With Tonneau Cover Rails
  • The Inno Velo Gripper part # INRT201 installs where the tonneau cover rails are installed so it will not fit with the rails. I have attached a photo that shows how the Inno Velo Gripper is attached to the bed rail. I recommend the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed bike rack part # TH93VR to carry a bike in your truck bed because it allows you to carry 1 bike in the bed without interfering with the tonneau cover rails. The Thule Insta-Gater Pro is held in place by the tailgate compared to...

  • Options for Carrying 4 Bikes In a 2010 Toyota Tacoma Truck Bed with Rail Track Tie Down System
  • We do have some truck bed mounted bike racks that will work with your 2010 Toyota Tacoma with rail track system, but the Topline system will not fit because direct access to the bed rails is needed to secure the clamps. For in bed 4 bike transport you could use four of the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Racks, item # Y01117. Another option for your truck would be a hitch mounted bike rack like the Thule Camber, item # TH9056. If you need a hitch for your truck we have...

  • Will Topline Expandable Truck Bed Bike Rack Carry Mountain Bikes
  • Tire size is not a factor as far as fit/compatibility for the Topline Truck Bed Bike Rack # AB2600. Instead you will want to measure the diameter of the mountain bike frames to see if the clamps will fit your bikes.The clamps fit bike frames up to 1-1/2 inches in diameter. Another option is the Thule Insta-Gater Truck Bed Single Bike rack, part # TH93VR. This is a single bike rack, but you can put two of them side by side in your truck bed. This bike rack holds the bikes by a ratcheting...

  • Will Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack Work On a Bike with Fenders
  • The Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack part # TH93VR shouldn't be used on a bike with fenders as you'd have to place the hook before the fender and that could create a weak hold. That said, you can secure the rack to either the front or rear wheel so you might still be able to secure the bike if there's only a fender on the front or rear. If there are fenders over the front and rear wheels then I recommend going with a different option like the Inno Velo Gripper Bike Rack for Truck...

  • Truck Bed Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2009 Chevy Silverado
  • The RockyMounts LoBall Bike Rack # RKY1097 that you referenced is designed to fit the factory track systems that are on several (but not all) trucks from the factory. If you truck has the slotted track system that runs down the bed rails that is designed for tie-down attachment points this rack would work well for you. Since it sounds like you don't have that rail system on your 2009 Chevy Silverado you instead would want the Yakima Locking BedHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack #...

  • Will the Swagman Pick-Up Truck Bed Mounted Bike Rack Fit on a 2007 Ford Ranger w/o Stepside Bed
  • The Swagman Pick-Up Truck Bed Mounted 2 Bike Carrier # S64702 will fit your 2007 Ford Ranger without the Stepside Bed. This bike carrier will snap right into your bed and will adjust to fit the width of your bed. While the Integrated push-button lock secures the rack to your truck bed, you can add a padlock similar to part # 131D on the telescoping arm lever for added security. I attached a review video of the truck bed rack you may want to check out.
