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

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

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

Now this can be an excellent way of getting your bikes to the trailhead, now with hanging style, your biggest issues, you're gonna have a lot of sway on your bikes, and what that means, they're gonna be bumping into each other they gonna be scratching each other, It's just making small, minor dinks and damage to it, so eventually, your paint's gonna start wearing off, your bikes just aren't gonna look as good. Now that doesn't mean that any aren't great, you're getting four bikes to the trail head with you, but you know, it's never great to actually do any damage to our bikes, that's where the Roadrunner comes in, it's gonna do an excellent job of really reducing the play and sway that our bikes are going to feel even with four bikes on here, and what I mean with that, you're getting a lot of great anti-sway control. At the top here, you can see we have this nice vertical posts for our anti-sway cradle here, gonna do a very good job of covering a lot of our bike, really reducing that innate play that's gonna have, so it's not gonna be swinging as much, and if it does swing, it's gonna return right back to where it was relatively quickly and fast to where we're not making any contact with our bikes. We also have at the bottom here, this nice anti-sway bar control, now what this is gonna do, to allow you to utilize the included cam buckle straps, to run this through all of your tires and each into those posts, that way you can really make sure that this guy a isn't doing this whole motion, but be, isn't gonna be swaying back and forth on this guy, so that four, therefore, they're not gonna be bumping into each other, not gonna be doing any kinda damage to yourself, and that's really the name of the game with the road runner, it is that nice hanging style, and it's really reducing all of that sway.

You'll notice here our bike is secured at three points of contact, two ratchet straps on the wheels and then one ratchet strap up here on the tire.To remove the bike, we'll start off by releasing the ratchet straps on the wheels and then we'll press this lever in to release the tension on the ratcheting arm. more

You're going to have a zip tie-style hanging system, which is going to have two straps on top and then one anti-sway cradle on the bottom, and what does this anti-sway cradle is going to do, it's going to help with that bike-to-bike contact and bike-to-vehicle contact when you're going down the road.As you can see, these mounts for your bike, it does have a rubber insert, which is going to protect your bike while hauling them anywhere, and also it has these little grooves which is going to be for your bike cables so they don't damage your frame.Let me just show you how easy it is to take this bike off the rack. It really is simple. You have this little pressure pin right here, you push down, and it slides right out, do that on both sides, and the anti-sway cradle. more

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

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.
