SportRack EZ Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2011 Hyundai Accent

Today, we're going to show you how the SportRack 2 Bike EZ Mounted Platform-Style Bike Carrier looks and fits on our 2011 Hyundai Accent. The Accent that we're working with today has an aftermarket class 1 draw-tight trailer hitch on it so we've gone ahead and removed the 2-inch adapter bushing that come provided with the bike carrier. So the first thing we'll be going to show you is how to install the bike rack into the trailer hitch, and to do that, we simply take the shank of the bike rack, insert it inside the receiver of the trailer hitch, align the threaded hole in the bike shank with the pin hole in the receiver hitch, and install the anti-sway bolt. The anti-sway bolt not only provides security to hold the bike rack into the trailer hitch but also takes all the sway and rattles out of the bike rack/receiver hitch combination. Now, with the bike rack is currently into the folded up position and even in this folded up position, we do still have full access to our trunk here. When we're ready to go ahead and use it to carry your bike, we can go ahead and fold it down and we do that by simply releasing the pins here on the sides and reinserting them to hold them into place. more
