Kuat Huk Half Truck Tailgate Pad Review - 2016 Toyota Tundra- Video
Hi, everyone. Aiden here with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Huk half tailgate pad and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2016 Toyota Tundra. Now, tailgate pad is a great way to carry a bike with your truck because you've got a truck bed, you might as well use it. And a tailgate pad is a great way of keeping your bikes upright and organized so they're not just piled on top of each other in the bed, protecting both the bed and your bikes. Now, the reason I like the half tailgate pad is because if you only need to carry one or two bikes, this is great. more

Kuat Huk Half Truck Tailgate Pad Review - 2022 Toyota Tacoma- Video
How's it going, neighbors This is Ed with etrailer.com, and we're taking a look at the Huk half tailgate pad on the back of our 2022 Toyota Tacoma. The Huk half is a solid bike pad for the back of your truck. It's gonna fall into the more premium category for it. In general, the reason you would select the half is if you just have one or two bikes that you're transporting. Also, if you're wanting to still keep half of the truck bed open for whatever else you may be taking out along with you. The material that it's made out of is TPU, and essentially what that is is a weather resistant, abrasion resistant material that's super soft to the touch that's gonna help keep the bike, you know, keep any damage from your bicycle, as far as scratching. more

Kuat Huk Tailgate Bike Pad Review - 2020 Toyota Tacoma- Video
Hi Matt with etrailer, and today we're gonna be talking about the Kuat Huk Mid-Size Tailgate Pad on the 2020 Toyota Tacoma. Now this is gonna be a great option for trucks since it sits on your tailgate pad and it's very easy to use but since it just sits on your tailgate pad, it doesn't have a weight capacity. But keep in mind, if you want to put any heavier bikes up here like your e-bikes, it might be kind of hard to lift it up that high. Another thing to note, we're gonna have one strap down point just right on the frame. So we don't recommend using any carbon frame bikes. Something I do like about this pad is that it has these adjustable straps, if needed, you can actually take these straps out completely and move it over to another location. more

Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad Review - 2020 Toyota Tacoma- Video
Hi, Matt with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be talking about the Yakima gatekeeper tailgate pad on the 2020 Toyota Tacoma. The gatekeeper's gonna be an excellent choice for the Tacoma because it's gonna be able to hold up to five bikes at once, which is a lot of bikes, especially compared to a lot of bike racks that are mounted on your hitch. 'Cause a lot of times they can usually only accommodate up to four bikes, and if they can hold a lot of bikes they're gonna stick out by a ton. Now, something else I do like is the way it holds your bikes up in an organized way, rather than, if you kind of just threw your bikes in the bed they'd be kind of bumping each other, and scratching one another up. So those are definitely great features about this pad. more

Kuat Huk Half Truck Tailgate Pad Review - 2020 Toyota Tacoma- Video
Hi, Matt with etrailer. And today we're gonna be talkin' about the Kuat Huk half-size tailgate pad on the 2020 Toyota Tacoma. Somethin' to note, it's gonna have the ability to hold up the two bikes and it doesn't have a weight capacity, so you can even accommodate your heavy e-bikes. Now, keep in mind, lifting up those heavy E-bikes will be kind of a struggle. It's gonna have one point of contact on your frame and that's gonna be tied down with that strap there. So, we don't recommend using any carbon framed bikes on here just in case it damages your frame. more

Inno Velo Gripper Truck Bed Bike Rack Review - 2022 Toyota Tundra- Video
Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer, and today, we'll be taking a look at our Inno Velo Gripper C-channel Mounted Bike Rack right here at etrailer on our 2022 Toyota Tundra. So this is gonna be a truck bed mounted bike rack, so a little different from your hitch mounted bike racks, your tailgate mats, this is gonna mount to the rails of your Toyota Tundra. So in this video, we'll talk about where does it mount, how does it mount, what can it carry, and how having a short bed on a Toyota Tundra changes some things when it comes to carrying your bikes. So the Tundra we have here today is a 5 1/2 foot bed with the utility rails on the side, and as you can see here, I don't even have that long of a wheel base on my bike and I'd still have to drive around with my tailgate down, so that's something definitely worth considering with this type of a bike rack. The pros are you are able to secure your bike by its frame, you don't need to take off the wheels, the downside is because you're not taking off the wheels, you have all that space you need to account for, so tailgate's down as you drive around. So where this style of a bike rack, where it shines over other types of racks is gonna be the stability. more
