RockyMounts MonoRail 2 Bike Platform Rack Review - 2022 BMW X3- Video

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at the RockyMounts MonoRail platform two-bike bike rack on a 2022 BMW X3. And when choosing a bike rack, there's plenty of options out there. And as someone that's had a variety of different bike racks on my vehicle I've kind of landed on one style that I really like and that's gonna be a platform wheel-mounted with tilting. And that's because it really checks a lot of the boxes. First off, your platform is, I think, the best way to secure your bike. more

Inno Tire Hold 2 Bike Platform Rack Review - 2022 BMW X3- Video

Hello neighbors. It's Brad here in etrailer. And today we're taking a look at the INNO Tire Hold two bike platform style bike rack on the 2022 BMW X3. Now, when it comes to platform style bike racks they all do a really good job of holding onto the bike. But you do have your frame mounted ones which are gonna be pretty good at holding down the bike but it kind of limits you if you have a carbon fiber frame and sometimes with some oddball shape frames especially with new geometry. Sometimes I'm not exactly happy with the way that it sits on there. more

Thule Hitching Post Pro Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2022 BMW X3- Video

Hello neighbors. It's Brad here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at the Thule Hitching Post Pro on a 2022 BMW X3. Now when it comes to choosing a bike rack for your vehicle there's definitely two options that are the main components in differentiating between the two, and one of those is our hanging style, the other one's gonna be the platform. And the hanging style has kind of been the standard for a long time, just because it's ease of use and also the ability to get multiple bikes without a huge footprint. And the platform style offers I think, a little bit more secure attachment to a bike, especially heavier bikes. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 BMW X3 SH22B- Video

Hello neighbors, it's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 on a 2022 BMW X3. Now here, we have it in the nice gunmetal color, it's also available in a pearl as well as a black. And that's something that really makes this kuat stand out. When it comes to getting a bike rack for your bike, for your vehicle, it can be a little bit tricky deciphering which one's the best for you. And I always suggest to people, if you ride a lot or plan on riding for a long time and not have to buy a new bike rack, you're best to go with a platform style. And platform does come in a little bit more of a premium price, but it really does allow you to carry any kind of bike on there safely without any sway, and I'm gonna explain why that is. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 BMW X3 BA22B- Video

Hello, neighbors! It's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at the Kuat NV 2.0 platform-style bike rack for two bikes on a 2022 BMW X3. Now, this NV is a platform-style bike rack, for two bikes in this configuration, it's also available in three different colors: you have a matte black, a gloss black, and then this nice gunmetal gray that you see here. When it comes to the world of platform-style bike racks, you have two, real, main options that separate the two and that would be your frame mount versus your wheel mount. Your frame mount is gonna be good to hold and cinch down your frame of the bike, and it's gonna keep it in place quite well. The wheel does just as good of a job, but the wheel mount putting the pressure on the tire gives you an added sense of mind that it's not gonna be scratching anything as it's clamped down on the tire, it's not gonna cause any potential marks. And also if you have a carbon frame bike, this is ideal because sometimes your frame mounts can actually cause damage and warp the frames of those carbon. more

Thule Hitching Post Pro Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2020 BMW X3- Video

Hi there BMW owners today in your 2020 BMW X3 we're going to be taking a look at Thule's Hitching Post Pro four bike hanging style rack.This bike rack is designed to carry four bikes, and it's a hanging style rack that has pads on each of our posts to support the bike. Each one of our mounts does have an anti-sway on it, and that's going to help prevent bike to bike contact as well as bike to rack contact. The cradles where your frame will sit in, has grooves in them to allow passage for your brake cables so you don't have to worry about anything binding up or causing damage to those. You can clearly see here that it's nice and free, and the cable's going to have a nice, easy ride to its destination.The bike's secured to the cradles, using rubber straps that have varying amount of holes in them to accommodate for various thicknesses in your frame. When you're ready to remove it, simply just give those a tug and we can release those. We're going to release the one on the other side, as well as the anti-sway.We can then take our bike off. more

Swagman XTC-2 Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 BMW X3- Video

Hi there, BMW owners. Today on your 2019 BMW X3, we're going to be taking a look at Swagman's XTC-2 Two-Bike Platform Rack.This two-bike platform rack is going to be a great solution for securely hauling two bikes with you behind your BMW. One of the things that I like about it is that it works in both a 2 or a 1-1/4" hitch and secures with an anti-rattle bolt. So you can see how nice and sturdy our bike is on here. I also like that it hooks with three points of contact on our bike. We have cradles for each wheel that are held in place with straps down here on the bottom as well as our hook here on top, which clamps down tightly to keep our bike in place. more
