Swagman Okanagan 125 Bike Rack Review - 2021 Nissan Murano

How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Swagman Okanagan 125 bike carrier on our 2021 Nissan Murano. The Okanagan is a wheel-mounted bike carrier, so that means that your bike is secured using a front hook and a rear strap without making any frame contact. So if you have a carbon fiber bike, a step through bike, or just a nice paint job where you didn't want any contact, this is gonna be one of the better options available for you. A cool feature is the fact that you do have a awesome foot pedal release tilt feature that's gonna allow you to tilt your carrier down while you're loaded and access your cargo area. So it is a really good tilt and it gives you plenty of space to get to the back of your Murano. You just definitely wanna make sure that you are cautious because that weight, once that latch is released, it's just gonna come right down and then just to lift 'er back up, it just clicks right back into place. more
