Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner- Video

Hi everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Thule T2 Pro XTR platform style bike rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. Now this is going to be a four-bike rack capable of carrying up to four bikes. It's gonna be a pretty easy system to use because it makes no frame contact, holds the bike by the front tire and the back wheel. The back wheel is held in by a wheel strap and that front tire uses a wheel hook. The hook is the thing that primarily keeps this upright and in place and the back strap provides stability. more

Hi, everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the RockyMounts GuideRail three bike rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. That's going to be a really nice platform-style rack. What that means is the bike is held in these trays, and in this one, it's held by the tires.

RockyMounts RV and Camper Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner- Video

Hi everyone, Aidan here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Away bike rack on the back of our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. Now this is gonna be, like I said, a swinging bike rack. What that means is we've got it loaded up like a normal bike rack but we've got this swing base arm at the bottom so it does have the ability to tilt away from the vehicle. I'll show you with the handle underneath you can pull it, tilt the whole rack down and use that to get quick and easy hatch access. Even on the 4Runner here with the very large hatch, it still does clear with plenty of room because of how aggressively it tilts. more

Hi everyone, Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're taking a look at the Swagman Current platform style bike rack on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner.

We've got a frame hook up top holding the bike in those cradles, and then there's two wheel straps at the bottom as secondary points of contact to keep everything nice and secure. Overall, it does a pretty good job of getting the bike nice and still. And with this it's designed to be used with e-bikes. more

Yakima Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner- Video

Hi everyone, Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're looking at the Yakima FullTilt on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. The FullTilt is a hanging style bike rack that holds the bike up here by the frame. It's hanging here with two zip strips over the top holding it down into the cradles, with a third zip strip over the seat post, limiting our side to side movement and helping with bike to bike contact. Because it makes frame contact we do wanna avoid carbon frame bikes, because that can damage the frame. With that in mind we also want to be cautious of alternative frame bikes and kids bikes. more

RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner RKY10007- Video

Hey everybody, Zach here at etrailer.com. Today, we're takin' a look at the RockyMounts MonoRail on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. This is gonna be a really nice wheel mount style bike rack in the single bike configuration. So, with a single bike, for me, a lot of the times, I'm just goin' out throughout the week by myself. I don't need to have an additional bike on the back of the vehicle. Sometimes, when I go out with my family or friends later, it's nice to have extra bikes. more

Hey everybody, Zack here at etariler.com Today, we're taking a look at the Kuat NV 2.0 Base, on our 2015 Toyota 4Runner. The NV 2.0 Base is by far my favorite bike rack. I borrow this one all the time, constantly throwing my bikes on this. My biggest thing I like about it is just the look and how it functions. It is one of the smoothest operating bike racks that I've ever used. I really like the matte finish to it. more

Yakima HoldUp Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota 4Runner- Video

Hey everybody Zach here at etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the Yakima Holdup, on our 2015 Toyota 4runner. It's going to be a Platform Style Rack, that's going to be a Wheel Mount Style. So this is going to work out great, with a lot of different bikes, whether you're doing a road bike or a mountain bike that's carbon maybe. Since we're getting that Wheel Mount design, we're not going to have to worry about any frame contact, which is great. Now when it comes to, carrying a lot of different types of bikes, it's going to work with tire sizes of 20 inches up to 29 inches and we're going to get, a 3 inch max width on that tire width, unless you're riding at 29er, if you're riding a 29er, we're only going to be able to go to 2.5 on that tire width, so that's something to keep in mind. more
