Recommended Truck Bed Bike Rack for 2017 GMC Canyon
Question:
Hi, what track system is used in the installation video? Do you have a video on how to install that track system inside the truck? I have a 2017GMC Canyon with a bed liner. Want to use this bike rack but not sure how to install without the track system. Thanks,

The Swagman Impakt Bike Rack # S62FR referenced in your question is confirmed to work well on your 2017 GMC Canyon. The fork block can install onto accessory rails like what you see in the demonstration video you mentioned, but it is also designed to bolt onto any flat surface with the included hardware. The accessory rails are simply factory components on the truck in the video, but they are not necessary for proper installation of this product. This will work just fine with the bed liner in your truck bed.
If you would rather not drill into your truck bed, another nice option is the Swagman Pick-Up Truck-Bed-Mounted 2 Bike Carrier # S64702, which is also confirmed to fit your GMC Canyon. This 2-bike, fork-mount rack will snap into place without tools and the telescoping arm can adjust from 52 to 69 inches long for a perfect fit in the bed. This design will essentially provide you with a similar functioning system to the Impakt Rack when used with factory accessory rails, without actually needing the accessory rails. I have attached a short video demonstration on this bike rack so you can see exactly what I mean.
I have also included the written installation instructions for you to look through.
