Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Toyota Camry- Video
Hey, everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today, we have the Swagman Current 2-Bike Platform Rack, and we'll take a look at how it fits our 2018 Toyota Camry. Right off the bat, if you wanna carry around extra heavy electric bikes, I know your options are limited with the Camry, because you have an inch and a quarter hitch receiver. So whenever you do have to carry those heavy bikes, please double check their weight, see if you can take off the batteries, if they are removable, also, better for the battery life to do that and keep them in your car, and make sure you don't exceed your tongue weight capacity. So with that being said, the Swagman Current will help you out with carrying around those bikes. This is designed to fit in those inch and a quarter hitches, you do have some premium features here to make it easier to live with heavy bikes, one of them is gonna be it has a tilt away lever. That bright green lever, if you pull that or I guess lift it, you can drop this rack down to a tilt, and that allows you to open up the trunk. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Toyota Camry- Video
Hi, everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today we have the Hollywood Racks Destination 2 bike platform rack and we'll take a look at how it fits our 2018 Toyota Camry. So right off the bat, we did put a hitch receiver on this Camry in order to carry around a hitch-mounted bike rack like this. It was an inch and a quarter hitch, which kind of limited our options, but even then, the Hollywood Racks Destination 2 is a great match. It's lightweight, it's affordable, and it has that nice platform rack design which gives you that extra stability. So compared to hanging racks, your bikes are gonna be a lot more stable on this rack. Now, since it is an entry level bike rack though, you do lose out on some premium features you expect with the more premium racks. more

Rola Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Toyota Camry- Video
Ryan: How's it going, everybody Ryan here etrailer.com. Today on our 2018 Toyota Camry we're going to be taking a look at the Rola TX102 bike rack. Now this can hold a total of up to two bikes, and the bikes that it is holding, it's going to hold them down in three spots. We're going to have two straps here along our top two. We're also going to have a strap down here, which is an anti sway strap, and that'll help eliminate side to side movement preventing any bike to bike or bike direct contact. Now one feature I thought was pretty neat is that it's going to have an integrated lock, so when our bikes are in place this will simply pull out, we'll loop it around the frame and clip it onto the arm. more

Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Toyota Camry- Video
Ryan: How's it going, everybody Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2018 Toyota Camry, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Helium Pro 2 Bike Rack. Now, this can carry up to two bikes. However, if you're needing to carry an extra one, there's also a three bike version available, as well.Now, one of my favorite things about this rack is that we're still able to completely open our trunk without having to fold our rack out of the way. And that's really convenient, because if you do fold your rack down, you're going to have to make sure to take your bikes off. That's why when we load our bikes up, we still have no problem getting our gear in and out.It's going to be extremely easy to handle, and since it's compact, if we need to ever pull it out of the hitch to make room for a cargo carrier or something else, we're going to have no problem fitting it into the back of our trunk.The rack is going to hold our bike down in three spots. more
