Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Lincoln MKZ- Video

Hi, everyone, it's Evangeline here, and today we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Sherpa 2.0 for inch and a quarter hitch receivers. And we're going to see how it fits here on our 2018 Lincoln MKZ. The Sherpa is gonna be a very versatile platform rack, and in my opinion, a really good fit for our little Sedan here. Because you have a lot of stability of the rack, meaning that your bikes are gonna be transported safely and securely, but also because of how it's designed, it can carry bikes to different shapes and sizes. You also have all the premium features you would expect from a Kuat rack, like how this tilts away and folds up to you nice and compact. The first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna tilt this rack away. more

RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2021 Dodge Durango- Video

Hi, everyone. It's Evangeline right here at etrailer, and today, we're gonna be taking a look at how the RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Out Bike Rack fits on the 2021 Dodge Durango. So the AfterParty is gonna be a dual-wheel mount rack with a high weight capacity for heavy electric bikes. It's pretty much the same as the RockyMounts Guide Rail, but it has an extra feature which is that this can swing out towards the passenger side. Now some things on the Durango, especially with this hitch receiver, is that this is gonna have a lot of height compared to other bike racks. So if you do have a 60-pound bike, that's something you have to consider is that you have to lift that up and onto this rack. more

Hey there, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we're gonna be taking a look at the Inno Tire Hold HD two bike platform rack for your heavy electric bikes and we'll see how it fits here on our 2021 Dodge Durango. So the HD is gonna be really good for those heavy bikes with a weight capacity of 80 pounds per bike. Awesome, very impressive. Now for a Durango though, there are some things you're gonna have to consider with this vehicle. The first one is that it's gonna be really high up off the ground, so I highly recommend grabbing the Inno Tire Hold ramp that's sold separately, add-on accessory that instead of having to lift the bikes up and onto the rack, you can then just ramp them down. The second thing is that your tilt away functions you do lose out on with this car. more

Swagman E-Spec 2-Electric Bike Platform Rack Review - 2023 Ford F-150- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Swagman Espec on our 2023, Ford F-150. Going with a hitch mounted bike carrier is a great way to bring your bikes along with you when you're not towing with your hitch and you still need the space in your bed. It's a good way also to keep your bike stable and secure when you're on the road versus just loading it in the back of your truck, also. The Espec is a platform style bike carrier that is frame mounted. So essentially what that is, you're gonna have a hook that makes contact with your frame and your front and rear wheel are gonna strap into cradles. If you have a carbon fiber frame bike or a nice paint job or maybe even an unconventional frame, this wouldn't be the best option for you. more

Saris Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 Kia Seltos SAR35MR- Video

Hi, everyone, I'm Evangeline here at etrailer. Today, we're taking a look at the Saris MHS 3-bike kit, and we'll see how it fits on the 2023 Kia Seltos. Right off the bat, I'd have to say that this isn't the best fit for the Seltos with the Seltos being a smaller SUV and this bike rack being a super heavy-duty bike rack. Now, this does have the capacity to carry around two 80 pound bikes as well as a 35 pound bike at the very end. But your Seltos may or may not be able to carry that much weight, so please double check your tongue weight capacity of your hitch before loading up your bikes. It's still worth taking a look at, because I like this bike rack kit with how sturdy it is compared to other dual wheel mount bike racks. more

Saris Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Newmar Bay Star Motorhome- Video

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Saris MHS two bike rack, which is gonna be the two plus one base and the two duo trays and we'll see how it all fits here on our 2019 Newmar Bay Star motor home. The MHS is probably one of my favorite motor home bike racks because you still have that 80 pound weight capacity and you have that dual wheel mount design and it's motor home compatible, meaning it does, it is designed to have that extra strength and durability to handle the extra stress of being so far away from the rear axle. Now with a Bay Star motor home though, there are some unique things that you are gonna have to consider when carrying those extra heavy electric bikes. The main thing is it sits up very high up off the ground, so if you wanna take advantage of the 80 pound weight capacity that's also 80 pounds that you're lifting this high up. Another thing is that you do have a ladder behind your motor home and that may cause a little bit of fitment issues. For example, we we inchesre not able to tilt up this rack into the compact position, but behind a motor home it usually doesn't matter. more

How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Kuat Transfer 3-Bike Platform Carrier on the back of our 2023 Audi Q5. So the Transfer is a solid bike carrier for your road bikes. Mountain bikes, it may come up a little bit short as far as that wheel base, but in general use is a good way to move three bikes, especially if you have something that's gonna have the carbon fiber or something with a nice frame or alternative style like a step through. In those cases, this guy's gonna work well, because it doesn't make any contact with the actual frame of the bike, you just have the front wheel hook that holds down the front of the bike and you have the rear cradle strap that holds your rear wheel in place. Another unique thing about the Transfer is the fact that the arms actually fold up out of your way and you have this U-shape on the base to make it easier for loading and unloading your bikes, which is unique to platform racks. Generally, you're gonna have to maneuver your bike over a mast or, you know, struggle it onto the carrier itself. more

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we have the Saris SuperClamp EX 2 bike platform rack. We're taking a look at how it fits on the 2020 Chevrolet Spark. So for the Spark, you do have limited options for bike racks because of your inch and a quarter hitch receiver, but that's okay because the SuperClamp EX still has that 60 pound per bike weight capacity, plus a lot of versatility for bikes of different shapes and sizes because of the dual wheel mount clamps. The downside to this bike rack is it is gonna be a bit wobbly. Adding that to your inch and a quarter hitch receiver, you will experience a lot of movement on the road. more

Inno Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 Kia Seltos- Video

Hi everyone. It's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we're gonna be taking a look at how the Inno Tire Hold HD Bike Rack fits the 2023 Kia Seltos. Right off of the bat, the Inno Tire Hold HD is what you'd be looking at if you want something that has a super high weight capacity for heavy electric bikes, but also has that dual wheel mount style to make it much easier to carry those bikes. The downside for how this fits on the car though is it doesn't tilt down far enough to open up the hatch if you have mountain bikes. So that is something to be mindful and we'll talk about in this video. But the perks are is that it sits low enough to the ground to make it a lot easier to load and unload those bikes. more

RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Away 2 Bike Rack Installation - 2022 Toyota Tacoma- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty on our 2022 Toyota Tacoma. The after party works out well for you when you have a pickup 'cause this allows you to actually access the back your tailgate and lower it down without having to remove your bikes from the carrier. Most cases, when you put a bike carrier on the back of a pickup, you just don't have that access, so that makes the AfterParty an awesome option for this vehicle. So let show you how it's done with this one. Well, one thing that's super cool about RockyMounts is all of your touch points are gonna be blue. Your first step is to grab a blue handle here to release your swing out base from the carrier, and you're gonna have a series of knobs that you pull as you open up. more

Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack Review - 2022 Toyota Tacoma- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Kuwait Transfer 3-Bike Carrier on our 2022 Toyota Tacoma. You'll notice that our Transfer is a wheel mounted bike carrier where you have a contact point with the front hook that ratchets down to keep the front of your bike down and a rear cradle and strap to secure your bike. The type of person that would want to go for a wheel mounted carrier is a person who owns a bike that has a unconventional frame or possibly a carbon fiber bike frame that's going to secure your bike without having any contact points to the frame itself. The best feature of the Transfer is the fact that you can actually open the arms outward, where you can step on the inside so you don't have to lift over a bunch of things to load your bike. So, you can load this guy, the second one and the third. In this case, it's just one. more

RockyMounts GuideRail 2 Bike Rack Review - 2022 Toyota Tacoma- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com taking a look at the Rocky Mounts Guide Rail on our 2022 Toyota Tacoma. The Guide Rail is a wheel mounted bike carrier that basically is gonna work well for anyone that has a bike that they don't want contact to the frame or is not possible like a unconventional frame or a step through bike. Also, if you have a carbon fiber bike frame, you really wouldn't want a hook pulling down on your frame, so you're secured by a front and rear strap. Another really cool thing about the Guide Rail is the fact that it has staggered trays, so it's gonna allow you to basically set the distance between your bikes to minimize handlebar interference. So another really cool feature, you don't necessarily have to have, your support arms symmetrical, so it allows you to offset the distance between the bike frame and the seat post. The Guide Rail can support a bike up to 60 pounds, so that'll work well if you have an e-bike. more
