Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack Review - 2024 GMC Sierra 1500- Video

Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack Review - 2024 GMC Sierra 1500

How's it going, neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're gonna take a look at the Kat NV 2.0 on our 2024 GMC Sierra 1500. Now this is gonna be more specific for your 1500 Sierra. If you want a little bit more in depth on the rack itself, we do have a full review, but this is just gonna be how it interacts with the back of the truck and some key features. The NV 2.0 is a wheel-mounted bike carrier, so that means it's not gonna make any contact with the frame, just at the front and rear wheel. The capacity for this is super solid. So it's gonna work for your super light road bikes that have carbon fiber frames with the no contact, as well as going all the way up to your 60-pound E-bikes. more

Swagman E-Spec 2-Electric Bike Platform Rack Review - 2019 GMC Acadia

Hey everyone, Charles here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at the Swagman E-Spec Bike Rack on our 2019 GMC Acadia. This bike rack is gonna be great for carrying those extra heavy electric bikes as you can carry up to 70 pounds per bike. It's also gonna be great if you have a motor home fifth wheel travel trailer, or if you wanna flat tow this on your journeys as well. It's gonna be made out of a steel construction, so it's gonna be very durable, lasts a long time, and it's finished with a black powder coat, making it rust resistant. Since we are being held on by the frame mount, it's not gonna be great for your carbon frame style bikes as it might work or damage the frame. Something to keep in mind. more

Swagman E-Spec 2-Electric Bike Platform Rack Review - 2022 GMC Sierra 1500

How's it going, everyone It's Ethan here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Swagman E-Spec two-bike platform bike rack on our 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. First thing we need to do is install the bike rack itself, which we'll just start by putting our shank into the receiver here, doing our best to line up the holes as we can. Once we've done our best to align the hitch pin hole with the hole on our receiver tube, we can start to thread our anti-rattle bolt into it. Most of these anti-rattle bolts including this one, we should be able to hand thread a pretty good portion of the way, but you might have to lift up and down on the actual bike rack to do so. If you start forcing the threads in with your socket wrench, eventually after multiple uses, you can start to unthread the actual anti-rattle bolt. more

Saris MHS 2 Bike Rack Review - 2019 GMC Acadia

Hey everyone, Charles here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Seris MHS modular bike rack on a 2019 GMC Acadia. Because of the double tire hold, this bike rack can accommodate a lot of different kinds of bikes, especially your carbon frames and those with a custom paint job, pretty much the only kind would be those with a fender and it does have a tilt away feature, which is awesome. The only problem is with our long handlebars here. Our hatch is going to make contact at about right here but we can just take the bike off to be able to access that. We are gonna have three attachment points, a strap for the front tire and then two of the wheel mounts. To take the bike off, we're gonna start with the strap and just get that out of the way. more

Hey, it's Ethan here at etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the Yakima RidgeBack Hitch Bike Rack and how it fits on our 2022 GMC Sierra 1500. The RidgeBack is gonna be a hanging-style bike rack, which means it holds onto our bikes primarily with the top tube right here, and it's got one anti-sway cradle here in the back, which helps keep some of that movement out of the case, but as with most hanging-style bike racks, you're gonna get a little bit of that back and forth movement. And you'll notice here that this front tire is free swinging, so I definitely recommend picking up some sort of stabilizing strap to keep that in place. But it does have the ability to hold four bikes up to 40 pounds a piece. Got a couple cool features that we'll check out throughout the video, so let's get to it. more

Saris Door County 2 Electric Bike Rack Review - 2019 GMC Acadia

Hi, everyone. Aidan here with etrailer.com. And today we're gonna be taking a look at the Saris Door County Bike Rack here on our 2019 GMC Acadia. Now the Door County is going to be a platform style rack, holding the bike down in these trays with two wheel straps and primarily holding it upright with this clamp around the frame here, that is gonna mean that our carbon frame bikes we're probably gonna wanna avoid just because we do have some pretty big frame contact and it's clamping down on that frame. So we don't want to damage it. But with the way this attaches down here rather than like a hook on the top tube, I think our alternative frame bikes are gonna be just fine. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2016 GMC Sierra 2500- Video

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2016 GMC Sierra 2500

Hey everyone, Charles here at trailer. And today we're taking a look at the Hollywood Sport Rider SE bike rack on our 2016 GMC Sierra 2500. This bike rack is gonna be great for carrying those extra heavy electric bikes because you can carry up to 80 pounds per bike. I think it's one of the largest weight capacity bike racks that we have to offer. If you had a custom paint job or a carbon fiber bike that you wanted to bring along, this might not be the best option for you since it is a frame mount but for that extra peace of mind, if you really had to take it, there's a foam padding on the hooks themselves and then an extra even softer foam padding on the hooks. It's gonna be made out of steel. more

Saris MHS Modular 2 Bike Rack Review - 2019 GMC Acadia

Hey everyone, Charles here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at the Saris MHS modular bike rack on the 2019 GMC Acadia. Because of the double tire hold, this bike rack can accommodate a lot of different kinds of bikes, especially your carbon frames, and those with a custom paint job, pretty much the only kind would be those with a fender, but you can carry up to 60 pounds per bike, and it does have a tote away feature, which is awesome. The only problem is with our long handle bars here, our hatch is going to make contact at about right here, but we can just take the bike off to be able to access that. We are gonna have three attachment points, a strap for the front tire, and then two of the wheel mounts to take the bike off. We're gonna start with the strap, and just get that out of the way. And then from here, we can go ahead and push on this gray button, swing that out of the way, and then keeping one hand on the frame, so it doesn't fall on your vehicle, we can now push on this gray button, and get that out of the way, and now our bike is free. more

But we're gonna have 60 pounds of weight capacity per bike. And it does tilt away, but unfortunately, on our Acadia here, it does not make clearance past these longer handle bars right here. more

Hey everyone, Charles here at Etrailer, and today we're taking a look at the Kuat Sherpa bike rack on a 2016 GMC Sierra 2500. This is a great bike rack. It accommodates a lot of different styles of bikes, but one quick disclaimer, on the Sierra here, we have a two and a half inch hitch with an adapter to reduce it down to two inches. And the self-tensioning system that Kuat has in the Sherpa, it's self-tensioning to the adapter, instead of the actual hitch. So we are gonna have some play in there, but if you wanna stick around and hear some of the features, we'll get right into that. We are gonna have 40 pounds of capacity per bike. more

One of the great features about this rack is that it does tilt away using this lever on the back. We can still keep our bikes on the rack without having to take them off, and be able to access our hatch to grab our helmets, waters, whatever we need for our bike ride. We're gonna hear it snap back into place and that's how we know it's secure. more
