Today on our 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee, we're going to be doing a test fit on the Kuat Beta Hanging Style 2 bike rack. That's part number B202-2. I've already got it loaded up on the Grand Cherokee just to give you a good idea of what it looks like and how it's going to hold our 2 bikes. It actually holds our bikes in 3 points of contact. We have 2 straps for our top tube and then 1 for our seat post tube. The one for our seat post tube's going to help prevent sway in our bike while we're on the road, prevent bike to bike contact, as well as bike to vehicle contact. All in all, a nice bike rack to have to get your bikes from A to B. Let's go ahead and take our bike off, though. We'll press in on our little button here, just guide that strap out. One more thing I'd like to point out is you'll notice that the arms here are closer together than most hanging style bike racks. That's going to allow you to carry a wide variety of bikes regardless of their frame design. I'll take the bike off. more
