Kuat Huk Half Truck Tailgate Pad Review - 2022 Toyota Tacoma

How's it going, neighbors This is Ed with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Huk half tailgate pad on the back of our 2022 Toyota Tacoma. The Huk half is a solid bike pad for the back of your truck. It's gonna fall into the more premium category for it. In general, the reason you would select the half is if you just have one or two bikes that you're transporting. Also, if you're wanting to still keep half of the truck bed open for whatever else you may be taking out along with you. The material that it's made out of is TPU, and essentially what that is is a weather resistant, abrasion resistant material that's super soft to the touch that's gonna help keep the bike, you know, keep any damage from your bicycle, as far as scratching. more

Now this is gonna be a great option for trucks since it sits on your tailgate pad and it's very easy to use but since it just sits on your tailgate pad, it doesn't have a weight capacity. But keep in mind, if you want to put any heavier bikes up here like your e-bikes, it might be kind of hard to lift it up that high. Another thing to note, we're gonna have one strap down point just right on the frame. So we don't recommend using any carbon frame bikes. Something I do like about this pad is that it has these adjustable straps, if needed, you can actually take these straps out completely and move it over to another location. more

The gatekeeper's gonna be an excellent choice for the Tacoma because it's gonna be able to hold up to five bikes at once, which is a lot of bikes, especially compared to a lot of bike racks that are mounted on your hitch. 'Cause a lot of times they can usually only accommodate up to four bikes, and if they can hold a lot of bikes they're gonna stick out by a ton. Now, something else I do like is the way it holds your bikes up in an organized way, rather than, if you kind of just threw your bikes in the bed they'd be kind of bumping each other, and scratching one another up.

Now the Ford Maverick has a short bed, and that leaves you with not as many options for truck bed bike racks. If you've got a hitch, you can always put a hitch bike rack in, but truck bed bike racks are gonna be a little bit more cost effective and a little bit easier entry for some people that are just getting started with one or two bikes.

You'll have to pick up another set of the clamps, because it only comes ready to go for one, but that is gonna be a limitation of this style, is that you are limited to the number of sides you have on your vehicle, which is two.

Hi, everyone, Aidan here at etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Huk Tailgate Pad and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2023 Nissan TITAN. This is gonna be their smallest tailgate pad they make, the half pad, and it only covers half the tailgate. So if you only need to carry one or two bikes and you don't wanna deal with a hitch-mounted bike rack or any other version of a truck bed bike rack, then this tailgate pad could be the one for you. I'm very partial to it myself, I've used a tailgate pad in this half size on my own truck a number of times, and I really like it, because we can have the bikes loaded up on one side, still see out the back window very easily, not extend really anything off the back of our truck besides our tire, and still have access to our backup camera and the handle for our tailgate when the bikes are unloaded. So for me, this is a really convenient way to carry your bikes, because if you've got a truck bed, you might as well use it, and it keeps the bikes a little bit more protected by partially being in the bed. more

Swagman Impakt Bike Rack Review

Hi, everyone, Aiden here at etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at and showing you how to install the Swagman Impakt Fork-Mounted Bike Rack. It's gonna be a great way to carry one bike by the fork in your truck bed, and there's a variety of different ways you can mount it up. Right now, we've got ours mounted up to a 2x4 just using some wood screws to hold it in place, and it's doing a great job at that. But it comes with all the hardware necessary to mount it up to the Swagman PATROL Bike Rack if you wanted to add an additional fork block to that. Or if your truck has the utility track system like some Toyota trucks do or the Frontier does, you can mount it up to that as well. more

Kuat  Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota Tacoma

Hi everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Huk mid-size tailgate pad and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2015 Toyota Tacoma. Now it's gonna be a great way to carry up to five bikes with you in your Tacoma, which is a really solid option because most hitch mounted bike racks can only carry up to four bikes. There's a few specialty ones out there that can do more but I'd argue that this is gonna be the easier method of doing it just because it's pretty easy to load up and it's very cost effective too. But there's a lot of options in the world to tailgate pads so what makes the Kuat Huk unique There's a number of things including the ton of padding that's all on the front, the top and the back which offers ample protection for both your bike and your tailgate. more

Kuat  Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2015 Toyota Tacoma

Hi, everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Huk Tailgate Pad and seeing how it fits on our 2015 Toyota Tacoma. Now, this is gonna be the half pad, the one that can only hold up to one or two bikes but only takes up about half of your tailgate, so this whole side here completely open. Which is great because it doesn't interfere with as much that way. Now if we shifted this over to the driver's side of the Tacoma, our backup camera would be completely visible but the tailgate pad would partially block our handle to lower our tailgate. more

Kuat  Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2023 GMC Sierra 1500

Hi, everyone. Aidan here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Kat Huk Tailgate Pad for full-sized trucks with the curved tailgate and seeing how it fits in our 2023 GMC Sierra 1500. Now for the curved tailgate, that's gonna be for most newer trucks. And you can really see that on the tailgate pad when you look at the middle. This section is quite a bit wider than it is on the edges because a lot of these newer trucks have a much deeper curve in the tailgate, and that top section there is a lot wider which means if you're looking at the tailgate pad as a way of carrying your bikes, then most of them are gonna fit kind of awkwardly because they bulge out in the center and don't fit very well on the edges. more

Kuat  Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2011 Ford F-150

Hi, everyone, Aidan here at etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Huk Tailgate Pad for Full-Size Trucks and seeing how this fits on our 2011 Ford F-150. Now, a tailgate pad is a great way to carry, on this one, up to six bikes with you in your truck. It's great, because it utilizes the space in your truck bed while still keeping the bikes organized, because sure, you can throw six bikes in the back of your F-150, but they're gonna be banging around together, all in a big pile, potentially damaging each other, and they're not very secure. And this is going to hold them upright, side by side with one another, and the only thing that's gonna end up overlapping is the tires over your forks, which some people might not be super fond of, in those cases, maybe I'd recommend a hitch-mounted rack that keeps your bikes more separated, but for this, it's a great effective way to get a lot of bikes with you quickly and relatively inexpensively. This is definitely a more premium tailgate pad, just know that there's a reason for that. more

You've got a ton of padding over the front, the top, and the back of the whole tailgate pad which wedges the bike in place and a strap on the back will secure it and get a really strong fit. more

Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today, we have a 2017 Nissan Titan, and we're gonna be taking a look at, I'm gonna show you some of the cool features on the Kuat Huck Tailgate Bike Pad. Now, this is going to be an alternative way to haul bikes rather than having a hitch bike rack, or a rooftop bike rack. With both of those options, you are limited to the amount of bikes that you can haul. If you've got a truck, you've got a lot of extra space. If you're going on a trip, this might not be a great option for you because you're going to lose pretty much all your bed depending on the size of the bikes that you're putting in here. more
