Curt Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Nissan Murano

Ryan: Hey, everybody. Ryan here at etrailer. Today, on our 2020 Nissan Murano, we're going to be taking a look at the Curt premium hitch mounted bike rack. So one of the big questions we get asked all the time in regards to hitch mounted bike racks is if you're still going to be able to have full access to the back of your SUV. And this one allows us to do that because it folds down and the way we're going to do that is right down here and there's a couple of things we need to do. You're going to have this T handle and we need to loosen that up and then pull out this pin and clip. more

Adam: What's going on, everybody Adam here with etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Hollywood Racks Destination 4 platform-style bike rack on our 2015 Nissan Murano. So this is going to be able to get four bikes to and from your destinations, perfect fit for this car, just because you can fit four people in here pretty easily. So, if you have a carbon fiber frame bike, this probably isn't the best route to go, just because it is going to strap to your frame. I usually like to get wheel-hook type bike racks whenever I have a carbon frame bike, but any of the other bikes you may have it's going to work really, really well with it. Electric bikes, no, but it is going to be able to fit tires widths up to three inches, and we're going to have a weight capacity of 35 pounds per bike.What I like about it is how diverse it can be. more

Thule  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2010 Nissan Murano

Today on our 2010 Nissan Murano we'll be doing a test fit of the Thule T2 Pro Platform Style 2 Bike Rack. That's part number TH9034. I've already got it loaded up on the Murano just to give you a good idea of what it looks like and how it's going to secure our 2 bikes. It actually secures our bike in 2 spots. We have this rear strap going over our rear wheel and then at the front we've got a large wheel hook going over the front tire putting down pressure into the wheel cradle. All in all there is no frame contact with this bike rack. One of the best features about this bike rack is it has the ability to tilt away with both bikes loaded so we can gain access to our rear hatch. more
