Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Tesla Model 3- Video
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today, we'll be taking a look at how the Kuat Piston Pro X fits on the 2018 Tesla Model 3. So this hitch was just recently installed on the Model 3, so that they can carry around some bike racks. Now, the Kuat Piston Pro X is an awesome bike rack, because of how you have the weight capacity, you are able to use the pistons, it has a fancy-schmancy way of opening up to load the bikes on and off and take them right back off. So very quick, very easy process, but also, it's a premium bike rack with premium features. So the first thing we'll take a look at, this is how it looks when you have it all folded up, you're able to open up your trunk if needed, you're not hitting that bike rack. If you do have the wiring added to your Tesla Model 3, you will be able to take advantage of the wiring on the bike rack. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Tesla Model 3- Video
Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we'll be taking a look at how the Hollywood Racks Destination four bike platform rack fits on the 2018 Tesla Model 3. So this bike rack is unique in that it's an affordable rack but also lightweight and compact but can still carry around four bikes. So if you're looking for something easy to maneuver and install onto your Tesla Model 3, this might be an option for you. It does have some downsides though like it's not able to tilt away and you don't have a great weight capacity. So if you have E-bikes, not gonna be the best fit. So if that's still good, then on our Tesla Model 3, this is how it's gonna look folded up. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Tesla Model 3 NV22B-NA22B- Video
Today we have a 2018 Tesla Model 3. We're going to be doing a test fit on the Kuat NV 2.0 four bike platform-style rack, which is part number NV22B-NA22B.This four bike platform-style rack, is probably one of the most high quality and most durable four bike platform-style racks you're going to be able to find. It's make out of solid aluminum, except for the shank, which is solid steel of course. It grips your bikes very well. You can see that this bike is really not going anywhere.One of the cool features about this bike rack is that, if for an extended period of time you only have two bikes to take out, but you don't want to drag the extra length onto your vehicle, we can come right here and take off the two bike addition, which just slides in right here. If we come back here, we just take off this end-cap, and this little post, and the bolts are inside, you unscrew those, which are right here, and then you just pull off the addition, and put that end cap back on.Something to keep in mind is that, this bike rack because it's so durable, it does weigh a lot. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Tesla Model 3 TS01B- Video
Today, on our 2018 Tesla Model 3, we're gonna be test-fitting the Kuat Transfer One-bike Platform Rack, part number TS01B.And we have the bike in the rack set up on the Tesla for you, to give you a nice idea of how everything'll look installed. In just a moment, we'll kinda jump into some of the details and features, but first, I'd like to show you how the trunk can open and close with the bike in the rack installed.Now, depending on the style of your bike, in the upward position here, the trunk just barely clears it. So, depending on the size of your handlebars, it may or may not open. You don't really have to worry about that, because the rack actually tilts down by this foot pedal. And as you can see now, you have more than enough room to get in and out. And obviously, with our bike not installed on the rack, your trunk will function in either position.So, the bike is held down at two points by the rear wheel cradle and strap, the front tire cradle and front wheel hook. more
