Yakima FullBack Trunk Mount 2 Bike Rack Review - 2023 Kia Seltos- Video

Yakima FullBack Trunk Mount 2 Bike Rack Review - 2023 Kia Seltos

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline right here at etrailer, and today I have the Yakima FullBack two-bike trunk mounted bike rack. We'll take a look and focus on how it fits our 2023 Kia Seltos. So for the Kia Seltos, which is actually my vehicle, you have limited options when it comes to carrying around bikes because it doesn't already have a hitch installed and you'd have to get a roof rack installed separately if it didn't already come with one. So your next option there for a quick and easy solution is the Yakima FullBack. Now, ideally, if you can please get a hitch installed onto your car so you can get a hitch mounted bike rack because then you're gonna get access to your hatch where in this case you lose access to your hatch. But for some reason you can't find a hitch, don't have the availability for the hitch, and, or don't have the time or want to invest in one, let's take a look at how this is gonna be the more premium option for your vehicle. more
