Speaker 1: Today on our 2011 Nissan Altima, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Vertex Four Bike Rack, part number 2H9029XT.Our bike is going to attach at three different points. We're going to have two on our crossbar here, and then we're going to have one strap going around our vertical support right here that's going to act as our vertical sway.The way we're going to take them off is we just pull the straps and unhook them, going around to each section and once we have all three unhooked, we can pull our bike right off. I'm going to set is aside for now.Not only is the cradle going to provide a nice spot for our bike to sit, but as you notice there's going to be several grooves in there and that's going to be for our cables running to our brakes, making it that much easier and nicer for our bike to sit in.The vertical support here is going to act as an anti sway and prevent bike to bike contact.One thing I really like about this bike rack is the integrated cable lock. You can simply pull the cable out, wrap it through our bikes and it'll secure right here.Now this is a four bike rack so we are going to be adding quite a bit of real estate to the back of our car. So I'd like to give you a few measurements. From the edge of the bumper to the outermost edge of the arm is going to come in just under 36 inches. more

Yakima HoldUp Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2016 Nissan Quest

Today on our 2016 Nissan Quest we're going to be test fitting the Yakima HoldUp 2 bike rack, part number Y02443. We already have a bike installed on the rack, let's go 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 tilt this away with the bike still attached. To do that, while holding on the bike rack itself, you come to this red knob up at the front, pull out, let it tilt down. Now, unfortunately, the bike rack is just a little to close to the vehicle and we can't open up our hatch all the way without coming in contact with our handle bars. Although you have some space to get to what you need in the back. To put it back in its original position, just lift up on the bike rack, never the bike, you see hear that click, and it's locked back into place. more
