RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Away 2 Bike Rack Review - 2023 Chevrolet Blazer- Video

How's it going y'all This is Ed here at etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty swing away bike carrier on our 2023 Chevrolet Blazer. All right, now this guy can support bikes up to 60 pounds per bike, and one of the really cool features of it is the fact that not only does it tilt away, it also tilts out, well, opens out, so you can access the rear of your vehicle without having to take your bikes off. Now, the AfterParty, this guy is gonna be a wheel mount bike carrier. Now why would you need a wheel mount carrier If you have a bike that's has carbon fiber in the frame or unconventional style, a wheel mount's gonna be the best way to secure your bike to your carrier, because it makes no contact to the frame and all this area wouldn't matter as far as, you know, maybe a frame mount style bike carrier. You can make adjustments as far as the different wheel size. And as far as your tilt feature, underneath here, there's a blue handle. more

Saris MHS Modular 2 Bike Rack Review - 2022 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport- Video

How's it going This is Ed here and we're takin' a look at the Saris MHS on the back of the 2022 Volkswagen Atlas Cross Sport. Well, the MHS is a solid bike carrier for you if you have two heavier e-bikes. It can support the weight of up to 80 pounds per bike and, as far as your wheel mounts, these guys are adjustable and they can support wheels up to a sizes between 20 inches and 29 inches using the tool free adjustment bar here and it also support a bike with a fender in the lower position where it would clear your fender. As far as the style of carrier, this is what's called a wheel mount carrier. Basically what that is is no contact to your frame. This is gonna work for any style of bike, but it's usually gonna be for a person that has a carbon frame or a type of frame where they don't want any contact from the carrier. more

How's it going, this is Ed here with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Hollywood Racks Destination four-bike carrier on the 2020 Jeep Grand Cherokee. The Destination is a four-bike platform carrier, and as far as being a carrier, is one of the better values to move four bikes. It is a frame mount where you're gonna have contact with your bike's frame, and then you have two straps along with the cradles that are gonna tie down to keep your wheels and everything stable. As far as how close you get to the vehicle with the bike on the closest position, you can kind of see with my handlebar here, I'm pretty close. Rocking it right here, I wouldn't be worried about it making contact, but it's something to definitely consider when you're making your purchase as far as the length of your handlebars.

How's it goin' today This is Ed with etrailer.com, and we're takin' a look at the Sport Rider SE on the back of the 2019 Chevrolet Traverse. So, the Sport Rider is actually a really solid e-bike carrier. It has a weight capacity of up to 80 pounds per bike. One thing I think is a con is the fact that, you know, you would have to lift up your bike to get it up to this higher platform on your Traverse. As far as the contact, you have three points of contact on the bike from the carrier, two straps on your wheel cradles, as well as your padded hook. If you have a carbon fiber bike or something that has a nice paint job or, you know, a step through bike or anything like that, you may wanna look towards a wheel-mounted option. more

So when it comes to bike racks on your truck, you've got options. You can always go with the tailgate pad, but sometimes it's just not feasible. If you've got a tonneau cover or a bed full of stuff, then the hitch is the best place to go after that. And especially with this one that we're looking at today, being a 1-bike rack, if it's just you, then why bother with a tailgate pad Even on the smaller sizes, they can accommodate up to two bikes and will take up almost half your tailgate, sometimes blocking things like your backup camera. more

As far as your contacts, you have on the rear wheel, a single strap, the front wheel, you have two straps, and a center mast clamp that makes contact with the frame. If you have a carbon fiber bike or something with a special paint job, you definitely don't wanna go with something that's gonna make this kind of contact, however, we do offer cradle mount options. So as far as clearance on the rear of the vehicle in the upright position, the bike carrier will affect your backup sensors as well as your backup camera and license plate. It looks like the tires also will be obscured, you know, well, no, it looks pretty good as far as clearing the back of your tail lights, but depending on your bike, you may still have interference as far as seeing from your handlebar, so that will vary from your style bike. more

Swagman XC2 2 Bike Rack Review - 2024 Subaru Outback Wagon- Video

Hi. John with etrailer. You don't have to spend a lot of money to have a nice, dependable, lightweight bike rack. This here is the Swagman XC2 Platform Style bike rack that we installed on our 2024 Subaru Outback. So right off the bat, I do wanna let you know that if you have a carbon frame bike, this isn't gonna be the bike rack for you because even though it's a platform style, we're still making frame contact right here. Now, if you have a regular bike without a carbon frame, this is great still because this is padded, and it holds your bike securely. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2024 Cadillac XT5- Video

Hey, everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we have the Kuat Piston SR Single Bike Rack, and we're gonna take a look at how it fits our 2024 Cadillac XT5. So the Piston SR is going to be a roof-mounted rack that also has a hitch adapter, and that's the kit that we are using with this vehicle.

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2024 Cadillac XT5- Video

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have the Hollywood Racks Destination four bike platform rack. We're gonna take a look at how it fits our 2024 Cadillac XT5. Now the Destination four is what you would consider an entry level affordable bike rack but I actually think it is still a great fit for the XT5 just because of its features, how compact, how lightweight it is, and it actually does a good job with carrying around four bikes of different shapes and sizes. So even though it's an affordable rack it's still definitely worth looking at. I would get it if I had kids bikes, medium-sized bikes, and even mountain bikes. What this cannot carry, though, are electric bikes. more
