Yakima LongHaul 4 Bike Rack Review - 2023 Thor Challenger Motorhome- Video

Yakima LongHaul 4 Bike Rack Review - 2023 Thor Challenger Motorhome

How's it going This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Yakima LongHaul on the back of our 2023 Thor Challenger. Now the LongHaul is a hanging bike carrier. So this is gonna have three points of contact and basically it's gonna get you two points here, one back here on the rear, between the frame and the wheel. And that is gonna be a carrier for basically your regular bikes. If you have something that's nicer, like a carbon fiber bike or an unconventional frame, this isn't necessarily the best option. Now if you do have a kid's bike or step-through bike, you can use a frame adapter to allow you to make these two contact points, but it's an additional accessory you would have to add. more

Yakima RoadTrip 4 Bike Rack Review - 2015 Thor Miramar Motorhome- Video

Yakima RoadTrip 4 Bike Rack Review - 2015 Thor Miramar Motorhome

Dustin: Hey, internet. It's Dustin here with etrailer.com, and today we're going to be showing you the Yakima RoadTrip on our 2015 Thor Miramar. Now this is an RV-approved bike rack, and the reason you would want that on your Miramar is because the axle sits far enough away from the rear on most RVs, including the Miramar, that you're going to get some sway and wobble back here that you wouldn't on a regular vehicle, and that can transfer to the rack. So on RV-approved bike racks, like the RoadTrip, there are less moving parts, it's more solid, and that's going to make a safer ride for your bikes.Like most hanging-style bike racks, it's going to hold our bikes in place by the top tube. It also features an anti-sway cradle, which is going to prevent any bike movement side to side, preventing bike-to-bike contact and bike-to-RV contact. Your bikes are secured down with the Yakima ZipStrip. more

Yakima LongHaul 4 Bike Rack Review - 2015 Thor Miramar Motorhome

Hey everybody, today we'll be taking a look at the Yakima LongHaul on our 2015 Thor Miramar.Now, the LongHaul is an RV approved bike rack. That's something you're going to want to look for when adding a bike rack to the rear of your RV. And that's typically because the rear of the RV sits so far away from the axle that there's a significant amount of sway back here. And so RV approved bike racks have less moving components and there's less that can go wrong.Like most hanging style bike racks, it holds our bikes in place by the top tubes, with an anti-sway cradle here on the side. Yakima actually uses what they call zip strips to go in and secure the bike. There's just these levels on the side. more
