RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the RockyMounts MonoRail bike carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. The MonoRail is a wheel mounted bike carrier, and that means that it secures your bike to the carrier by making contact with your wheels. If you have a carbon fiber frame bike, a unconventional frame, like a step through, or even just a nice paint job where you didn't want frame contact, wheel mounted bike carriers are gonna be the best way to transport your bike. So let's just take a look at how the bike carrier loaded, interacts with the back of our tailgate here. So we're gonna pull the lever with a handle and we're gonna open up the hatch. So this is gonna give you a great amount of access to your cargo area if you want to take a seat to change your shoes or have a beverage after your ride. more

RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty bike carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. The AfterParty is a wheel-mounted bike carrier that's gonna support your bike, or secure your bike to the carrier by making contact with the front and rear wheel without anything touching the frame. A lot of bike carriers, especially platform style or frame-mounted where they make contact. So if you have a carbon fiber bike, unconventional frame, or just a nice paint job where you didn't want frame contact, wheel mount is generally gonna be the best way to go. What is special about the AfterParty is the fact that it can not only tilt to give you access to the cargo area, it actually swings open, so while keeping your bike on the carrier. So first, let's take a look at our tilt feature. more

Inno Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Inno Tire Hold HD bike carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. So the Tire Hold is like the name implies a wheel mounted bike carrier that holds your bike by the tires. If you have a specialty bike, a bike with a carbon fiber frame or something you just didn't want any contact to your top tube, this is gonna be a great way to secure your bike to the back of your Equinox. One of the things that I think that is kind of limiting on this one is the tilt that it has or lack thereof. You're just gonna pull your latch and this is how much tilt you have. So you won't have enough space to actually open the hatch and get to your cargo area, but you definitely make contact to with your handlebars to the back of your, you know, your back door here. more

Yakima Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Yakima StageTwo Bike Carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. So as you can see, the StageTwo is a wheel-mounted bike carrier, meaning that it's gonna secure your bike using a front hook and a rear strap cradle. This is gonna work for those bikes that have carbon fiber frames, step-through bikes, or if you just have a bike where you don't want any contact to the paint on the top tube. This is gonna work really well for that, 'cause it's gonna give you that extra adjustability to use just about any style bike. As far as on the back of the Equinox, you do have a tilt feature that's gonna allow you to access your cargo area. When you're tilting over, you wanna be cautious if you're maxing out on the capacity, 'cause you're right at 70 pounds per bike on the back of the Equinox. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. The NV 2.0 is a wheel mounted bike carrier, meaning that it has a hook that secures your bike on the front and a strap that secures your rear tire so you don't have any contact on the frame of your bike. A lot of frame mounted carriers are gonna have a hook that goes down on your top tube, and this is gonna prevent that contact if you have a carbon fiber bike or an unconventional bike, like a step through bike. On the back of the Equinox, you can see that it comes in handy to have that tilt feature. If you need to actually get to your cargo area, you just press down the lever and you can open the back quite easily with the mountain bike that I have loaded here. If you have wider handle bars, it may be a concern, but you know, overall I think you have a pretty good amount of space to get to your cargo area. more

Swagman E-Spec Electric Bike Rack Review - 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe- Video
How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Swagman E-Spec on our 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe. The E-Spec is a frame-mounted bike carrier, meaning that you're gonna have a padded hook on your cross-tube and straps on your front and rear cradle to secure your bike to the carrier. Now, if you have a carbon-fiber bike or unconventional frame, like a step-through bike, this isn't gonna necessarily be the best option for you. You may wanna go with a wheel-mounted bike carrier. However, if those aren't things that you're working with, then this will be a great opportunity to get some bikes on the road with you for your adventure. The E-Spec does not tilt, so you will not be able to access the back of your Tahoe when you're loaded up with bikes. more

Swagman Dispatch 2 Bike Rack Review - 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Swagman Dispatch on our 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe. The dispatch is a frame mounted carrier that supports your bike by putting a padded hook on your cross tube and having straps and cradles for your front and rear tire. So what this is gonna do is stabilize your bike with three points of contact. However, if you have a carbon fiber bike or a step through bike or maybe even just a nice paint job you don't want contact to, a frame mounted bike carrier may not be the option. You may wanna lean more towards a wheel mount. If that's not an issue, the Dispatch is a great option to get your bikes out on the road with you. more

The Piston Pro X is gonna be the top model from Kuat as far as wheel mounted bike carriers. What a wheel mounted bike carrier is gonna do for you It's gonna secure your bike to the back of your vehicle without making any frame contact. If you have a frame mounted carrier, you're gonna have a hook that puts pressure down on your top tube, and this is gonna help you not have that contact with your frame, especially if you have a carbon fiber frame bike bike or unconventional frame like a step through. On the back of the vehicle, it's gonna allow you specifically the Piston Pro, it's gonna allow you to have a tilt feature, where you can access your cargo area pretty easily. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Hollywood Racks Destination e-bike carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. The e-bike carrier here, the Destination E is actually a frame-mounted bike carrier. So that's gonna make its contact points right here on your top tube and your front and rear wheel using the cradle system. The thing that's special about the Destination E is the way that the mast is shaped. So it's gonna accommodate a wide variety of different bike styles. So if you have a step through bike or a e-bike that has a different angle to cross tube or even a woman's bike, you'd be able to actually make that contact by sliding the clamp over on the frame where you can. more

That's gonna allow you to get your bikes on the road with you. However, if you have a carbon fiber frame bike or a bike that has a nice paint job or even a unconventional bike with, you know, a step through frame, this may not be the best option. You may wanna lean more towards a wheel mounted option. more

Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox S44FR- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Swagman Dispatch Two Bike Carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. So the Swagman Dispatch is a nice bike carrier if you're not overly concerned with a frame mounted bike carrier style, that's going to actually come into contact with your top tube. So if you have a carbon fiber bike or a bike with a nice paint job or even a unconventional frame style, like a step through, it may not be the best option. If that's not a concern for you, it'll work pretty well on the back of your vehicle. On the rear of the Equinox, once you have your bikes loaded up, you will not be able to tilt this carrier. So that is something that's kind of a shortcoming of the dispatch. more

Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox S36SR- Video
How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at the Swagman Okanagan bike carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. So, looking at this bike carrier and what you may notice is how it's secured to it. This is a wheel-mounted bike carrier and that works really well for people who have carbon fiber bikes, unconventional frame bikes like a step through or just a bike you don't want any contact to the top tube. This is gonna allow you to get two bikes on the road that are up to 45 pounds each. The way that it affects the back of your vehicle is kind of handy 'cause it allows you to still access your cargo area. You can use this green latch and you can lower the bike carrier to the ground. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox KU24FR- Video
How's it going neighbors This is Ed here, with etrailer.com, and we're takin' a look at the Kuat Transfer V2 bike carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. So as you can see, the way that your bike's secured to the Transfer is using a hook. This is a wheel-mounted bike carrier. So if you have a bike like a carbon fiber bike or a step through frame, something where you necessarily didn't want contact to the top tube, you're gonna be able to secure your bike without having any issues. Only thing that I have encountered, sometimes if you have fenders that stick out a bit, this isn't necessarily gonna be the best option for you. But on the case of this mountain bike right here, you can see that it works well. more

Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Chevrolet Equinox- Video
How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Thule Epos Bike Carrier on our 2022 Chevrolet Equinox. So our bike carrier here is actually kind of unique versus a lot of other types, whereas it is a frame mount and it can also be a wheel-mounted carrier, so that's gonna allow you to get two different types of bikes out on the road. So if you have a carbon fiber bike, a step-through bike, something like that, you can actually adjust your arm to attach to your rear wheel, or if you have a bike where you don't mind that contact on the top tube, then it works out fine, kinda like our e-bike here. Our capacity is sitting here right at 75 pounds for a single bike or 70 pounds for two bikes. So that gives you a lot of flexibility as far as how much you can carry along with you, and let's take a look at how it works with the Equinox. We're gonna push down on our pedal here and activate our tilt feature. more

This is gonna be an open-design platform rack that we will take a look at here on our 2023 Chevrolet Equinox. The Kuat Transfer is gonna be the entry-level rack in the Kuat line where you don't pay as much as you would for a Sherpa or an NV, but you still get these solid Kuat features. One of those features is tilting away. So if you want something that makes it slightly a bit easier to tilt away, then if you have just one bike loaded, like what we have here, you can actually step into the rack, step on this lever, and then drop your bike rack down to a tilt. more

So for the Spark, you do have limited options for bike racks because of your inch and a quarter hitch receiver, but that's okay because the SuperClamp EX still has that 60 pound per bike weight capacity, plus a lot of versatility for bikes of different shapes and sizes because of the dual wheel mount clamps.

Now, the AfterParty, this guy is gonna be a wheel mount bike carrier. Now why would you need a wheel mount carrier If you have a bike that's has carbon fiber in the frame or unconventional style, a wheel mount's gonna be the best way to secure your bike to your carrier, because it makes no contact to the frame and all this area wouldn't matter as far as, you know, maybe a frame mount style bike carrier. You can make adjustments as far as the different wheel size. And as far as your tilt feature, underneath here, there's a blue handle. more

So, the Sport Rider is actually a really solid e-bike carrier. It has a weight capacity of up to 80 pounds per bike. One thing I think is a con is the fact that, you know, you would have to lift up your bike to get it up to this higher platform on your Traverse. As far as the contact, you have three points of contact on the bike from the carrier, two straps on your wheel cradles, as well as your padded hook. If you have a carbon fiber bike or something that has a nice paint job or, you know, a step through bike or anything like that, you may wanna look towards a wheel-mounted option. more

That's going to press the bike down into those wheel hoops and keep it secure. Now this is going to be able to handle 35 pounds per bike and because it makes the contact of the frame it isn't the best fit for carbon frame bikes and for alternative frame bikes you're gonna need a bike adapter bar because this hook needs somewhere relatively flat to grab onto to get a good hold on the bike. more

It does require a little bit of work to put those bikes on and off as well as the bike rack. So we are gonna talk about that focusing on our trailblazer here.

Depending on which Current you get you can also upgrade the older versions to the newer cradles if you want to use the add-on ramp and bridge that Swagman offers if you have heavy electric bikes.
