Malone Spare Tire Bike Racks Review - 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2013 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited we're going to be test fitting the Malone spare tire mount Runway 3 bike rack, part number MPG2148. We already have a bike installed on the rack, let's take a closer look and show off some of the features. How the bike is attached to the rack we're going to have two straps up at the tops here, then we're going to have these padded cradles underneath to ensure that the frame of our bike doesn't have any scratches or abrasions on it after installing. The cradles can be adjusted back and forth to accommodate loading and you do this by loosening and tightening the screws at the base here and getting them to the location you need them.Let's go ahead and take the bike off and set it aside, remove the straps, and just lift it right off. With the bike rack in this position, I'm going to give you a quick measurement, measuring from the edge of our tire to our outer edge we've added about 27 inches to the rear of the vehicle. When the bike is not in use, or is taken off, you can fold these down by turning these handles on either side up to put them in the unlocked position, you can see that where the teeth separate, and then you can actually lower this down, and fold it flat against the tire. more
