Yakima  Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2012 Honda Civic

Today, on our 2012 Honda Civic, we're going to be test fitting the Yakima HalfBack 2 bike rack, part number Y02636. As you can see, we already have a bike installed on the rack. Let's go ahead and take a closer look, and show off some of the features. Now, how the bike is attached to the rack, we're going to have three points of contact. We're going to have two zip strips up at the top, and one off to the side. That's going to serve as an anti-sway strap to keep the bike from moving too far back and forth, possibly hitting the bike rack or the bikes in front of it, and damaging them. Let's go ahead and take the zip strips off, and set the bike aside. more

Thule  Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2011 Ford Fusion

Today on this 2011 Ford Fusion, we're going to be testing the Thule Gateway XT2 Bike Rack, part number TC9006XT. As you can see, we already have a bike installed on the rack. Let's go ahead and take a closer look and show off some of the features. How the bike actually attaches to the rack, you're going to have three points of contact with your bikes frame. We're going to have two straps up at the top and one off to the side. That's going to serve as an anti-sway strap to keep the bike from moving too far back and forth possibly hitting either the bike rack or the bikes in front of it. Let's go ahead and take the bike off and set it aside. With the bike off I'm going to go ahead and give you a quick measurement. more
