Inno Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Toyota Prius- Video
This right here is the NO tire hold. And we're taking a look at it on our 2022 Toyota Prius. This is a pretty unique bike design when it comes to the rack. There's a couple of other ones on our website, but this is the most entry level option. I really like the dual tire hold because it doesn't have any effect on our frame.

Thule Hitching Post Pro Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Toyota Prius- Video
We have a 2022 Toyota Prius in the shop today and we're gonna be taking a look at a very popular bike rack. It's a Thule Hitching Post Pro. It's not just popular with us because we like it. It's also one of the most popular racks on our site. Let's go over a couple things. This isn't gonna be great for a carbon fiber bike, just because we do have some frame contact and it's not gonna be for those heavier bikes either because the limit to this as far as weight goes is 35 pounds per bike but you can get four bikes on here and there's three different tie downs per bike. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Toyota Prius- Video
This is the Hollywood Racks Destination 2. And our vehicle is a 2022 Toyota Prius. This is gonna be the most entry level rack when it comes to platform styles. It is gonna limit us to 35 pounds per bike. And we do wanna make sure we don't get those longer mountain bikes just because the wheel base has a max of 48 inches. And when it comes to the fat tire bikes, if they are under 35 pounds we're still not gonna be able to put them on here because our cradles right here are going to limit us to three inches per bike. more

Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota Prius- Video
Hi everyone it's Evangeline here at etrailer.com and today we are looking at our Swagman XE2 bike platform style rack here on our 2015 Toyota Prius. This is a great bike rack to have if you are looking for the bare necessities, you want a bike rack that will get your bikes to where you need them to be safely, securely, and it's a lightweight bike rack too. This bike rack does not tilt away so if you want to access your hatch you will have to remove your bike. Now the way our bike is mounted to this bike rack is by this frame mount. We have universal wheel hoops they are at the bottom and these can fit bike tire widths of up to three and a half inches. So if you want to dismount your bike what you need to do is first lift up on your frame mount, so press that button, lift up lets get to this bottom one right there and with that release you can then either tilt your bike away or what I like to do is just take off these mounts completely, and with them removed completely, then I can even lower my center mast and push that down so that I only need to lift it up just a little bit then I'm ready to go on a bike ride. more
