Saris Freedom Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2014 Toyota Prius v Video

I was unable to find a lot of details about the Vital 2 other than the rims are 27-inches diameter. It is a lightweight aluminum bike and I read where the weight is around 30-lbs. The Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack, part #SA4412B will work with…

For your 2 electric bikes weighing 60lbs each, I would look into the Saris Freedom Platform Rack. If your tires are 2-1/4" wide or less then go with #SA4412B; if your tires are wider than 2-1/4" then go with the fat bike version #SA4412B-FB…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

A 4-Way trailer connector has the basic lighting functions only; running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground. A 7-Way has these functions and a 12 volt circuit, a circuit for electric trailer…

To me it makes the most sense to put a Bike Rack #HLY64FR on the flat towed vehicle rather than above the tow bars. Especially on heavy e-bikes as they are difficult to lift that high onto the rack, but also as it only makes sense to have the rack on…

To add a class III hitch to your 2024 Honda CR-V hybrid, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch item #C13397. This hitch is custom fit and bolts to your CR-V with included hardware. It is a class III hitch with a 2" receiver. I really like this…

Yes, the Curt hitch part #C77ZV is a fit for the 2023 Toyota Crown Hybrid. I attached a link to the install instructions as well as a link to an installer finder in case you wanted to find someone near you to install the hitch.

The main difference between the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part #C13416 and the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver part #EH97FR is that the EcoHitch has a completely hidden cross tube whereas the Curt cross tube will be visible from the rear of…

The Kuat Sherpa 2.0 #SH22G and the NV 2.0 #NV22G that you referenced are both excellent platform-style racks that will hold your bikes by the front wheels with no frame contact. These are top-of-the-line carriers and you really would not go wrong…
