Yakima  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Subaru Forester

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today we have the Yakima OnRamp bike rack. This is gonna be a rack for heavier electric bikes and we're gonna take a look at how it fits on our 2020 Subaru Forester. So this has a ramp installed to the rack, which means that it's very convenient for if you just wanna ramp your bikes on and easily take them off. With a 66 pound per bike weight pass that's very impressive. But let's talk about how this fits on our Forester. The very first thing I like to look at is the tilt away feature to see if you can open up your hatch. more

Hey everyone, it is Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have the Kuat Piston SR with a hitch adapter. And we're gonna take a look at how it fits on our 2020 Subaru Forester. So the Kuat Piston SR, super cool bike rack has a dual wheel mount design which means it's super fast to get your bike on there and to take it off but most importantly it has 100 pound weight capacity. So whether you have a heavy electric bike, a step through bike, a mountain bike, a road bike, this can carry pretty much any of the bikes. Now focusing on our Subaru Forester here let's talk about things like how it fits, ground clearance, stuff like that. Now usually a bike rack would tilt away and fold up. more

Hollywood Racks  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Subaru Forester

Hi, everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today we have the Hollywood Racks Destination 4 bike platform rack. We're gonna take a look at how it fits on our 2020 Subaru Forester. The Destination 4 is one of my favorite bike racks to recommend to people just because it is compact, it's lightweight, it works really well, and it's at a great price point. So there's a lot of things that this bike rack has going for it, and the versatility for different types of bikes is awesome too. But it also has its downsides, like it doesn't tilt away. So if you do need to open up the hatch on your Forester, you are gonna have to remove your bike and lower that mast in order to lift that door up. more

Hi, Matt with etrailer. Today we're gonna be talking about the Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack on the 2024 Subaru Outback. That's gonna be a great option for you if you're looking for a premium rack that's very versatile. What's gonna make it super versatile is its ability to accommodate a lot of different types of bikes. So we're gonna have this front ratcheting hook on our front wheel and this rear strap on our rear tire. And since we're not making any frame contact, it's gonna be a great option for your alternative or carbon frame bikes. more

Hollywood Racks  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2023 Subaru Impreza

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today we have the Hollywood Racks Destination 4, and we're gonna take a look at how it fits our 2023 Subaru Impreza. So the Destination 4 is one of my favorite bike racks because it can carry around four bikes, it's compact, it's lightweight, and it's affordable. Now, it also has its downside though, which is it has a maximum weight capacity of 35 pounds per bike, plus it does not tilt away. So if you have extra heavy electric bikes over 35 pounds, I do recommend taking a look at something else. Those are gonna be more premium racks though, like the Saris MHS might be your best bet. more

Yakima  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Subaru Ascent

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have Yakima OnRamp 2-Bike Platform Rack and we'll take a look at how it fits our 2019 Subaru Ascent. So, the Yakima OnRamp is definitely designed for your electric bikes. It has an included ramp attached to the bike rack. Great if you're the type of person that forgets to bring the ramp like I am and it is popular for the reasons of that ramp being able to adjust this and having a lot of versatility for how it secures the bikes. Now for the Subaru Ascent though we're gonna talk about how it fits with this vehicle. I personally think it's a great fit, especially since the height of the hitch on the Ascent makes it pretty necessary for ramps for those heavier bikes. more

Swagman  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Subaru Ascent

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have the Swagman XC2 two bike platform rack and we'll take a look at how it fits our 2019 Subaru Ascent. So with this bike rack, it's gonna be really popular because it's a very entry level bike rack so it's affordable, but it also allows you to carry around your bikes on a platform rack rather than swinging around on a hanging rack. So if you're not interested on paying extra for features you may not need, this is something that you might consider. Now, there's definitely some downsides to that too, like you can't tilt it away, there's no locks, you have a 35 pound per bike weight capacity, things like that. So we'll talk about that, but we're gonna focus on our Subaru Ascent here to see if it'll be a right fit for your car. The very first thing I'd like to talk about is the clearance between the bike and the car. more

Kuat  Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Subaru Ascent

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have a Kuat Piston Pro bike rack for four bikes, and we'll take a look at how it fits our 2019 Subaru Ascent. So, this is gonna be a pretty impressive bike rack. It's a large rack that's for sure, and it can carry four bikes, but it also has the Kuat at one touch pistons to make it quick and easy to load and unload those bikes. So, you just press a button and the arms swing up just like that, that's a pretty cool factor for when you're on the trails, and at the parking lot, and you're ready to grab your bikes and go. But there's some things you have to consider when you use this with the Ascent. One of the main things I've noticed with this bike rack is that the Ascent has a lot of ground clearance, the hitch sits really high off of the ground. more

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we have the Kuat Transfer V2 3 Bike Platform Rack and we'll take a look at how it fits our 2019 Subaru Ascent. So the Kuat Transfer is pretty popular for the reasons of it's a good premium rack without being as much of a premium price as the Kuat NV. So if you like Kuat bike racks, but you're looking for something that's maybe slightly more affordable that's where the Kuat Transfer comes in handy. Also, it has a unique goalpost design that makes it easier for you to grab your bikes and load them up as well as once it's in the compact position then you have more visibility behind your vehicle. But with how it works on the Subaru Ascent unfortunately this bike rack does not tilt down far enough away for you to fully open up your hatch door. So if that's a very important feature for you this might not be the best fit for you and I have some suggestions as alternatives if you stick around for the end of this video but first, I'll show you what I mean. more

Now, I will say that this type of strap, the stretchy rubber material, although it is kind of nice for just weather resistance and ease of use, it's not the most secure, and there is still quite a bit of side-to-side movement with the bike. But, you can always add an extra strap after the fact to help cinch things down. more

Inno Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon

Hi, everyone. Aiden here with etrailer.com. Today, we're taking a look at the Inno Tire Hold on our 2018 Subaru Outback Wagon. The tire hold is a platform style bike rack that, like the name suggests, hold the bike by the tires. We're gonna have two of these wheel hoops that create zero frame contact on our bike, making it good for carbon frame, alternative frame, and the 60 pound weight capacity per bike, also good for our E-bikes. I'm a huge fan of this design of bike rack where you've got the two arms holding the wheels, because it's just really easy to load and unload. more

Hey, Adam here with etrailer, today we're gonna to be taking a look at the Kuat Transfer on our 2020 Subaru Ascent.

So it is great for those carbon fiber bikes, but it's also going to be able to extend to three. So if you have a growing family or your hobby is growing, we can add one more on the end to make it into a three bike rack, which is always awesome.

Yakima Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Subaru Outback Wagon

What's up everybody. It's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're gonna be checking out, the Yakima OnRamp on our 2022, Subaru Outback wagon. It's gonna be a platform style bike rack, that holds the bike right up here on the frame so we don't recommend using carbon fiber bikes on this just because of the frame contact. But the good thing about that is these cradles, can spin 360 degrees, and, you can loosen them and adjust them up and down the mast. So, because they're so easily adjustable, it works with these e-bike frames because they are very much alike alternative frames so it's kinda hard to if they had a hook to come down here in the center, it wouldn't work really well with it. more
