In order to do that, there is a black handle on the right hand side of it, just go ahead and pull it out and lower it on down. With that down, as you can see, we have full access to the rear of our vehicle to get anything in and out that we may need.

Thule  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2016 Nissan Rogue th912xtr

Today, on this 2016 Nissan Rogue, we're going to be test fitting the Thule Roadway 2 Bike Rack, Part Number TH912XTR. As you see, we already have a bike installed on the rack. Let's go ahead and take a closer look, and show off some of the features. How the bike is attached to the rack, we're going to have 3 points of contact. We're going to have 2 straps up top here, and then one off to the side here, and that's going to serve as an anti sway strap to keep the bike from going too far back and forth, hitting on to the bike rack, or the bikes in front of it. Let's go ahead and take the bike off and set aside. With the straps taken off, I'm going to go ahead and put it back into place. It's just a good habit to get into, so you don't lose them while driving. more
