We're first going to show you one of the key features of this rack. We're going to come here to the side and pull out on our red pin. Then we can tilt our rack away from our vehicle. In this position, you'll see we're going to gain full access into our back hatch area to get anything in or out that we may need. What's great about this is that we don't have to worry about removing our bikes or our bike rack just to gain that access. more

Now to begin our test fit, we'll simply slide the shank of the carrier into the opening of the hitch, lineup our pinholes, allow the integrated hitch pin to fall into place and we'll then turn the black knob to engage the anti-rattle device. Now, with our two-way Apex secured to our Ford Edge, we'll go over a few clearance measurements to see how they fit together. We have about 14 inches of ground clearance. Closest part of the carrier to the closest part of the vehicle here at the rear bumper is about five inches. With the cradle arms folded down, we've added about 12 inches to the overall length of the vehicle. We'll now pull the grey lever at the top of the mast and with the cradle arms out, we've added about 36 inches to the overall length of the vehicle. To access the cargo area, we'll lift up the gray handle at the bottom of the carrier to tilt the mast down. This will allow us to have access to our cargo door. more
