Hey, it's Ethan here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Curt Premium Hitch Bike Rack and how it fits on a 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. The Curt Premium is a hanging style bike rack capable of supporting four bikes up to 180 pounds total. It's gonna hold onto our bike primarily by the top tube and let the rest of the bike hang down, hence the name. It's gonna support our bike with three straps, two on the top and one anti-sway strap on the side here. As you can see here with the front tire, it is free hanging right now though, so if we rotate it all the way, it'll make contact with the back of our Sierra, so we recommend picking up some stabilizer straps if you can, just to secure that in place. more

First feature that we're going to show off is the fact that it can tilt away with the bike loaded up, and I really like where the handle is located to tilt it away, 'cause it's in the front, and if I have another bike loaded up, I can just pull that anyway.

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we'll be taking a look at the Swagman XTC2 TILTing bike rack and how it fits on a 2019 Toyota Highlander. So if you're familiar with the Swagman XC2 that's really popular because it's affordable, it's lightweight, it's compact. This takes those features, but it now adds the tilt to it. So there's pros and cons to it. The main pro is its affordability. Now the downside is you're gonna have to go through a little bit of extra work to get your bike on there and it can't carry every single bike. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 Chevrolet Equinox

Hi, everyone. Aiden here with "etrailer." Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat NV 2.0 Platform Style Bike Rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2023 Chevrolet Equinox. This is going to be a platform style bike rack and it's one of our more premium options. Definitely one of my personal favorites just because the NV is very sleek, very stylish. It works with a wide range of bikes and it's gonna be very easy to use. We'll talk on that all throughout the video here, but right out of the gate I do wanna talk about how it holds the bike. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 Chevrolet Equinox

Hi, everyone. Aiden here with "etrailer." Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Hollywood Racks Destination Two Bike Rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2023 Chevrolet Equinox. Now this is going to be a very entry level option for a platform style bike rack. Platform style meaning it holds a bike in these trays and this one is going to have two straps down at the bottom that pull the bike down and in as well as a frame cradle that slides up and down, can be rotated around and has a strap that runs around the bike to hold it in place on this pad. Now that means a couple things. Frame contact means we want to avoid carbon frame bikes but with the way that cradle and pad can be manipulated, moved around and rotated, it does work really well for alternative frame bikes. more

CURT Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 Chevrolet Equinox

Hi everyone, Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the CURT premium hanging style bike rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2023 Chevrolet Equinox. So this is a hanging style bike rack which means the bike is hanging by the frame up here. It's sitting down into our cradles and held in place with these two rubber straps stretched over the frame with a third one around the seat post here, helping to control our side-to-side movement. It doesn't completely eliminate it but it does help quite a bit. And with this you can hold up to four bikes. more

Thule Hitching Post Pro Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Lincoln Navigator

Hi everyone, Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Thule Hitching Post Pro hanging style bike rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2022 Lincoln Navigator. Like I said, this is gonna be a hanging style bike rack which means the bike is held up here by the frame hanging down below the bike rack. We've got two points of contact up top in the form of these rubber straps, stretching over the frame holding it down in the deep cradles, with a third one on the side, limiting our side to side movement helping with bike to bike contact. There is still some movement there but this does do a pretty good job, especially compared to other hanging style racks at limiting that movement. And I will say this is a very entry level hanging style bike rack, so there's not a whole lot of features with this, but if you're looking for something simple, this could be a possible solution. more

So this is gonna be an affordable bike rack that can tilt, something that you usually see with your more premium racks. And that's gonna be where we're gonna start with our Navigator today. Especially with a larger hatch, not every bike rack that tilts clears it, but this one does. So here we have our pin and this clip. more

RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Away 2 Bike Rack Review

Hi everyone, Aiden here at the etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty SwingAway bike rack. If you're familiar with the RockyMounts GuideRail, this is going to be very similar in the way that it holds the bike by our tires and everything else is pretty much a carbon copy of the GuideRail except that this has the SwingAway base. It's gonna be really nice for Vans, trucks with tailgates, any sort of situation where you might want to swing the rack away rather than just being able to tilt it down. Let's check it out. Much like the GuideRail though, this does still have the tilting feature. more

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we'll be taking a look at how the Inno Tire Hold two bike platform rack fits on a 2023 Chevrolet Suburban.

RockyMounts RV and Camper Bike Racks Review - 2022 Toyota Tundra

Hi, everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty SwingAway Bike Rack and seeing how it fits on our 2022 Toyota Tundra. So, like it looks right now, the big benefit of this is that it's a swing away bike rack. So, for your trucks it's gonna be a really solid fit because it allows full clearance with your tailgate and full access to it where we don't have something in our way, so if we need to get something loaded or unloaded, hop in the back or just have a place to sit. One, we have clearance because a lot of times even with a bike rack tilts away, it doesn't have full clearance, and you'll see that a little bit later, but even when it does have full clearance, it's still sitting in front of the tailgate and it doesn't give us a good place to sit. more
