Curt  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2011 Ford Explorer

Today on our 2011 Ford Explorer, we're going to be test fitting the Curt two bike platform rack for fat bikes for inch and a quarter and two inch hitches, part number c18085-fb. We already have a bike installed on our rack. Let's take a closer look and show off some of the features. One of the more prominent features about this bike rack is the fact you can carry up to two fat bikes on it, or other bikes such as mountain bikes or road bikes. Another great feature is the fact that this can tilt away from the vehicle with both bikes still attached. To do that, if we come to the base, you're going to see we have two pins. We have the smaller one and the larger one. more

Curt  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2011 Ford Explorer C18085

Today on our 2011 Ford Explorer, we're going to be test fitting the Curt two-bike platform rack for inch and a quarter and two inch hitches, part number C18085. We already have a bike installed on the rack. Let's take a closer look and show off some of the features. The most prominent feature about this rack is that you can carry up to two bikes and actually have it tilt away to gain rear hatch access. To do that, we'll come to the base of our bike rack and you'll see two pins, a smaller and larger. We'll remove the larger pin first, we'll pull that out, and now while holding onto the bike rack we'll let it tilt away, and now we have full access to get to our rear hatch to get what we need, and plenty of space on either side to do so. more

Malone  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2011 Ford Explorer

Today on our 2011 Ford Explorer, we're going to be test fitting the Malone Hanger Three-Bike Rack for 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, part number MPG2127. We already have a bike installed on the rack. Let's take a closer look and show off some of the features. At the end of both of our arms we do have these reflectors for better visibility at night. The cradles are accessible along the arms to accommodate loading, and you tighten them down by tightening these screws at the bottom here. It'll grip your bike at two points. We're going to have this strap up at the top here and one off to the side, which will serve as an anti-sway cradle to keep your bike from moving too far back and forth and making bike-to-bike contact. We also have this foam pad at the mast here to help protect the frame of your bike from any scratches or abrasion. more
