Hollywood Racks Destination 4 Bike Platform Rack Review - 2023 Thor Challenger Motorhome- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here taking a look at our Hollywood Racks Destination four bike carrier on the back of our 2023 Thor Challenger. So the Destination is a four bike carrier that is a frame mount, so it's gonna make contact with the frame of your vehicle. Specifically looking at the Thor Challenger, I would only suggest using this guy if you're going to use a hitch extender because of how close your bike comes to your carrier. I mean how close your bike comes to your vehicle. It like physically right here with my bike here, my handlebars are making contact. Again, with it being a frame mount carrier and making contact with your the frame of your bike, it wouldn't be the best option if you have a unconventional frame or a carbon fiber bike, you know, that's just not what you're gonna hunt for. more

Saris MHS 2 Bike Rack Review - 2023 Thor Challenger Motorhome- Video

How's it going neighbors This is Ed here with etrailer.com and we're taking a look at our Saris MHS on the back of the 2023 Thor Challenger. So the MHS is a wheel mounted carrier, and so what that does for you, it actually secures your bike without making any contact to your frame. You have two cradles that are gonna ratchet down over your wheels and you have a single strap that holds your rear wheel in place. There's also a built in chalk to help secure your bike. So overall, if you have a type of bike, like I would say maybe a step through bike or a carbon fiber frame bike, a carrier like this would be the best option for you due to the fact that it makes no contact. So as you see, we are super close on the outside cradle and I wouldn't think it would be possible for most cases to fit a second bike in and still clear the vehicle, 'cause I would say we're maybe about six inches away from there with our bike. more
