Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 GMC Sierra 1500

Hey, it's Ethan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Swagman Chinook Two Bike Platform Rack and how it fits on our 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. It's gonna be able to support two bikes up to 45 pounds a piece, gonna hold onto them primarily with these frame hooks on our center mast, as well as two straps, one on the back tire and one on the front. So because it does make that frame contact, we'd recommend not using this with carbon frame bikes 'cause it could potentially damage your frame while you're driving. Also, if you have a really aggressive alternative frame style bike, you might have to pick up a bike adapter bar to make it work. But one of the first things that we'd like to show off about this rack is that it does have the ability to tilt away with the bike loaded up. more

Alternative frame bikes will work as well 'cause it does hold on by the wheel instead of the frame. more

CURT Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 GMC Sierra 1500

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

RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 RKY37ZR

Hi everyone, Aiden here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Away bike rack on the back of our 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. Now this is a platform style bike rack and it holds the bike in these trays and by both tires. With it being a dual wheel mount here, we don't have to worry about any sort of frame contact, making it good for carbon frame and alternative frame bikes. And with a 60 pound weight capacity per bike, it's gonna be good for some e-bikes too. Now, like the name suggest, this is a SwingAway bike rack. more

CURT Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 GMC Sierra 1500

Hi everyone, Aiden here with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the CURT Premium Four Bike Rack on the back of our 2023 GMC Sierra 1500. This is a hanging-style bike rack that's gonna hold our bike by the frame. It hangs down by the frame there, held in by these two straps over the top the frame, and a third one around the seat post, limiting our side-to-side movement. It's not gonna fully eliminate that movement, but it does help quite a bit and prevent bike-to-bike contact. You are gonna have some limitations with this being a hanging-style bike rack because it's hanging by the frame, you wanna avoid carbon frame bikes because that can damage it. more

Saris Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 GMC Sierra 1500

Colin: Hey guys, it's Colin here at etrailer. Today we have a 2019 GMC Sierra 1500, and we're going to be test fitting the Saris Glide EX 5-Bike Rack. This is a hanging style bike rack that'll allow you to transfer up to five bikes to and from your destination. Now if five bikes is a little bit too much capacity for you, there is a couple of other options you have. You do have the option for a 4-Bike Rack, the only difference between that one and this one, is that you just have one less set of cradles. So it's going to be the same length of arms, you are going to have more spacing between bikes with the 4-bike version. more

Speaker 1: Today in our 2018 GMC Sierra 1500, we're going to be doing a test fit on the Kuat Transfer one bike transfer rack. Part # TS01B.Now with the bike installed let's take a closer look and show off some of the features.To start we can tilt this away from the vehicle, with the foot pedal right there. We're just going to bring our foot up, and press down and then tilt the bike rack away. Like so.However, when we come and try to open our tailgate, we can open it to about here and that's when we're going to make contact with the bike. If you wish at your own risk you can still open in up and reach in and get whatever you might need, it's not really that hard. It just depends on how much you want to risk.To tilt it back up just grab ahold of the bike rack, and then tilt it up, until you hear it latch. more

Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 GMC Sierra 1500, we're going to doing a test fit on a Saris super clamp EX two bike platform rack, part number SA0425F.Now, with a bike installed, let's take a closer look and show off some of the features.To start, like most platform racks, this can tilt away from the vehicle. Little black handle right here, we're going to pull down on that, tilt it away.However, to get access to your truck, if we open up our tailgate, we're going to see that as it comes down, it does make contact with the bike right there. Though it does get most of the way down, so if you're careful, you can open it up, hold onto the tailgate and get whatever you need. But do that at your own risk.To tilt it back up, just grab ahold of these two arms on the bike rack and tilt up, til you hear that audible latch.We have four different points where our bike is secured. We have a ratchet strap on the back wheel right here and we also have the same thing on the front wheel, securing it into the cradles.We also have two wheel hooks, one on the back and one on the front. These wheel hooks are putting downward pressure on top of the wheels, forcing them down into the cradles. more
