This two-bike platform rack's gonna be great for mountain bikes, or larger bikes as well, up to a tire width of about three inches. So you can put just about anything on here, and they do have staggeredness to them so that way you don't have to worry about your handlebars contacting. And we have frame contact that holds our bike into place. So this is gonna ensure that it stays in there very solid and that our bike's not gonna go anywhere. Now because this is a frame contacting bike, I don't recommend this for carbon fiber bikes as it could potentially damage the frame due to the vibrations. more

Ryan: Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2019 Hyundai, Santa Fe, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Helium Pro platform style bike rack.The rack that we have here today is a two bike version, but there's also a one bike version available as well. But with that being said, one of the things that really separates this platform style rack compared to some of the others, is that it uses two wheel hooks, one on each tire. So, that's going to work out really well for those of you that have those carbon fiber bikes, you won't have to worry about any frame contact.Now, a lot of times with platform racks, when you get a couple of bikes on them, you run into the issue of putting that second bike on there and having interference with your seat, the second bikes handlebars can get jammed up and it can be a real hassle sometimes. That's not going to be the case with this one and that's because we're able to offset our bike. So if loosen up our wheel hooks a little bit, you're actually able to roll the bike one way or another, and clamp it back down. more

The first thing you'll notice is it is a hanging style bike rack, which means the bike kind of hangs around the cradles instead of being held by the wheels on a platform like in a platform style rack. Which means it might not be the best option if you have a carbon fiber bike like more expensive bikes, you're worried about scratching, the frame or indenting or anything like that if these straps. If you're just worried about any of that, this is probably not the way to go. You'd want to put it on a platform rack. more

We'll begin our test fit by sliding the shank over the carrier into the opening of the hitch lining up our pinholes allowing the integrated hitch pin to fall into place and we'll then turn the black knob at the base of the carrier to engage the anti-roll device. With our Thule Apex secured with our Santa Fe we'll go over a few clearance measurements to see how the two fit together. We have about 16 inches of ground clearance. Closest part of the carrier to the closest part of our Santa Fe is here at the rear bumper about 2 inches away and we've added about 13 inches to the overall length of the vehicle. We'll now lift the gray lever at the top of the mast to swing the cradle arms out and with the cradle arms out we've added about 36 inches to the overall length of our vehicle. To access the cargo area we'll lift up the gray lever at the base of the carrier to tilt the mast down. Now as you can see we can easily gain access to the rear hatch of our Santa Fe. To load the bike we'll make sure the mast is in its upright position. We'll undo the cradle straps, place our bike into the frame cradles and secure with the straps. That complete today's test fit for the Thule Apex 4-Bike Carrier Part No. more
