Thule Doubletrack Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2014 Kia Forte- Video
Hello everyone. Andy here from etrailer.com and today we're going to take a look at the Thule Doubletrack Platform bike rack on our 2014 Kia Forte. So some of the nice features about this platform-style bike rack is with it being a frame mounted, it's going to be accommodating to different styles and sizes of frames. It's going to work great with Awol bikes here, or even with kids' bikes. You can kind of adjust the wheel trays in order to fit that whether it's smaller or larger, and it is going to fit any type of bikes, such as a walk-through bike, that's going to work great for that as well. So although this platform rack doesn't have a tilt-away or tilt-down feature, it does still work great with having trunk access with our Forte here. more

Rob: Everybody it's Rob here at etrailer.com. They we're to be taking a look at the Thule Helium 2 Bike Platform Style Rack, on our 2020 Kia Sportage.

So if you have a road bike with the carbon frame, like we have here, you definitely don't want a rack that does have any frame contact because it does put that extra stress on the frame.

Rob: Hi everybody, it's Rob here at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Hollywood Racks SE4 Bike Platform Style Rack on our 2020 Kia Sportage. Now, I really like the Hollywood Racks, mainly because of how versatile this rack is. It's going to allow us to carry up to four bikes, to and from the trail, and we don't have to worry about putting the bikes inside of our Sportage, or if you're like me, I don't really like the idea of a roof-mounted bike rack, just because I don't want to have to lift my bike that high and get that close to my car. So having a hitch-mounted bike rack is going to make it easier, and the fact that we can carry four is really nice.Now I know one of the big things that a lot of people wonder about with platform-style racks and all the other kinds of racks that are out there is, can you get access to the back hatch Because that's pretty important. We don't want to unload all of these bikes just to get something, and we can get in the back hatch. more

Now this bike rack is available in a three bike rack version and that's part number TS03G. You can get either setup in either gray or black. Now I've already got my bike in position with it installed on my Sportage, just to give you a good idea of what it looks like and how it holds our bikes. Two great features is that it holds our bikes by the wheel, no frame contact, so that's a great feature if you've got a carbon fiber bike or a bike that you don't want any contact by the bike rack, or even if you've got a bike with an alternative frame style.Another great feature is it has the ability to tilt away from our Sportage with bikes loaded. more

Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2017 Kia Sportage TH9054- Video
Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Kia Sportage we're going to be doing a test fit on the Thule DoubleTrack Pro platform style two bike rack. That's Part Number TH9054. I've already got it loaded up on the Sportage with the bike loaded on the bike rack just to give you a good idea of what it looks like and how it's going to hold our bikes.Right away, one of my favorite things about this bike rack is that it is fat bike ready right out of the box. It'll hold fat bikes with a tire width up to 5" wide. One of the other things I like is how it holds our bikes. The clamp design will hold our bikes by their top tube, their down tube, or their seat post tube, so that's a really nice feature. more

Speaker 1: Today on our 2017 Kia Sorento, we're going to be test fitting the Saris Glide EX 4 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, part number SA774.Here I have a bike installed on our rack. Let's go ahead and take a closer look here. This is a pretty unique hanging style bike rack in that it can move away from the rear of the vehicle with all four bikes still attached to gain rear hatch access. Normally, you would need a swing out version of bike rack, meaning it swings completely away from the vehicle to get that access and keep all your bikes on there. Otherwise, you'd have to take everything off and tilt it away.It's a very easy process. We have this trigger here. more
