Will Kuat Huk Tailgate Pad Bike Rack Fit 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz
Question:
Ii am considering purchasing a Hyundai Santa Cruz and I am wondering if the Kuat Huk or half pad will work for carrying 2 nornal adult road bikes. When you/Kuat say pads work for a compact truck, does that include the Santa Cruz? My two primary concerns are as follows: 1. the bed of the Santa Cruz is very small and it seems that the bikes would ride high up on the tailgate and may not be very stable assuming they fit at all. 2. would the half pad offer sufficient protection of the tailgate, if the bikes must sit high on the tailgate/pad or at a weird angle in order to fit in the truck? Any advise you can provide is appreciated. Thanks,

I looked up the tailgate dimensions of your 2024 Hyundai Santa Cruz and the Kuat Huk Half Tailgate Pad for Trucks # KU49ZR would fit without issue. The wheel of your bike would hang down lower near the bumper so it's going to fit well enough and the tailgate will be protected adequately as well.
