Three Bike Trunk Mount Bike Rack Recommendation for a 2005 Chevy Equinox LS
Question:
Which 3 bike racks fits a 2005 Equinox LS without a hitch?
asked by: Tia B
Expert Reply:
There are several 3 bike trunk mount bike racks that will fit the 2005 Chevy Equinox. I have included a link to them for you. The Thule Passage 3, # TH911XT that you have referenced is one that will fit.
I recommend the Thule OutWay 3, # TH56BV. This rack has the most features including retractable cables instead of straps, anti-sway cradles, and an integrated cable lock. The cables make installation and removal faster and easier than on any other trunk mount rack. And the cable position can be locked into place on one side to deter theft.
If you will be carrying women's, children's or alternative frame bikes, I recommend using the bike adapter bar # TH982XT for greater ground clearance and to carry the bikes more level. I have included a link to a video showing how the adapter works.
