Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2017 Kia Soul- Video
Today on our 2017 Kia Soul, we're going to be test fitting the Swagman XC two-bike rack, part number S64650. We already have the bike installed on the rack, so let's go ahead and take a closer look and show off some of the features. First off, how the bike is attached to the rack. We're going to have one point of contact and that's going to be this padded frame hook up at the top. Now it's padded to make sure that once you do install your bike, it doesn't get scratched up. We also have these adjustable wheel cradles at the bottom here, and this will accommodate different-sized bikes. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2017 Kia Soul- Video
Today on 2017 Kia Soul we're going to be test fitting the Kuat NV 2.0 2 Bike Platform Rack for 1-1/4" hitches. Part number NV12G. 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, the most prominent feature of this bike rack is the fact that you can't tilt this away from the vehicle with the bike still attached to get to your rear hatch. To do that we'll hold onto the bike rack, and you come to this switch here, pull towards you, let it come down, and now we have full access to our hatch. We'll just lift it back up and to its original position until you hear that click. Now, how the bike is actually attached to the rack, we're going to have two points of contact with no frame contact at all. more
