Swagman Escapee RV 2 Electric Bike Rack Review 2017 Toyota RAV4- Video

Hi, everybody, Cooper here with etrailer, and today, we're going to be looking at the Swagman Escapee on our 2017 Toyota RAV4. The Escapee is going to be a platform-style bike rack, which can hold up to two bikes and does so by holding them by the tires. So it's important to know that, because for our carbon frame bikes and our alternative frame bikes, that means there's going to be no weight on the frame itself, it's actually held all within the tires. The bikes themselves are actually weighted for 60 pounds per bike each, so it will be able to hold those e-bikes as well too. So unfortunately, this bike rack is not a tilt away system, so if we want to gain access into our trunk, we're gonna have to take our bike off first, and we're gonna show you how that process goes right now. So our wheel hook's actually what holds our bike into place, so what we're gonna do first is actually come down to the wheel strap here, press our little lever right here, and it should slide right out, and we're gonna feed that back through the tire. more

It lets us fit up to four bikes on here and that's gonna be quite nice. Another nice thing about this dual arm support system, as you can see, you won't have a lot of play going left or right on these bikes. Now, some of those single arm models you might find out there, that's another thing to keep in mind. more
