Best 2016 Jeep Wrangler Spare Tire Bike Rack Options- Video

Speaker 1: Today we're going to be taking a look at the best spare tire mounted bike racks for the Jeep Wrangler. Here we have from Yakima, the SpareRide. Here's the Thule Spare Me, and from Hollywood Racks, we have the SR1.Now, all of the bike racks we have here have been designed to work with a very wide range of Wrangler Jeeps. Now, the biggest fitment issue that you're typically going to have is with really large, oversized tires. All of our racks are designed to work with the 33-1250 size, not too much over that. The HR1, from Hollywood Racks, does extend out to 13.5 inches, but typically your tire sizes go from 12.5, then kind of back up to the 15, 15.5, those sizes.Now we can go over some of the similarities and differences in our racks. more

Yakima Spare Tire Bike Racks Review - 2016 Jeep wrangler- Video

Today on our 2016 Jeep Wrangler, we're doing the test fit on the Yakima SpareRide 2. This is a folding, two-bike rack, designed to mount right on the spare tire, here. Part number on it is Y02599. Now, this bike rack is going to hold two bikes up to 35 pounds. Something that I think is really nice, the provided cable lock that's going to come with it, 63 1/4 inches long. It's going to allow us to get through both of our rims, our sub-frame on both of our bikes. Now, they provide two keys with this. more

Saris Freedom Spare Tire Bike Racks Review - 2016 Jeep Wrangler- Video

Today on our 2016 Jeep Wrangler, we've got the Saris Freedom Spare Tire Mounted Platform Style 2 Bike Rack out. We're test fitting it to let you see how it fits on the Wrangler. This is part number SA999TB. This spare tire rack is going to mount with the plate behind your spare tire, uses all the existing lug nuts, so it's really easy to get it installed, and it offers us a platform style rack, which we don't often see with the spare tire bike racks. We've got 3 points of contact that are going to hold the bike. Got a front cradle with strap, a rear cradle with strap, and also our center frame cradle strap here. It really does a good job of immobilizing the bike, keeps them from moving back and forth that we might get from some of those hanging style rack, might get some more sway out of those. To remove our bike, we're just going to release our straps. more
