Yakima Roof Bike Racks Review - 2020 Mazda CX-5- Video
Andy: Hello everyone! Andy here from etrailer.com and today we're going to take a look at the Yakima High Road Roof Bike Rack on our 2020 Mazda CX-5.So this roof rack is going to be great for hauling just a single bike. It's a great option whenever you . let's say you don't have a hitch and you either have after market roof bars because you carry a ski or snowboard, or a cargo basket on top, or you even have the factory-installed roof bars, as well. This would be a great choice.One thing that is nice about it is going to be how low-profile it is and it only having the mounting hoops on the front, that way you don't have to, kind of, fight with mounting the rear wheel from the back. Being a little bit higher up, it is a little bit more difficult to get that bike up there, but this is going to be a great option whenever it comes to easy as far as putting the bike up on top of the roof.When it comes to getting your bike secured to the roof rack here, there are two mounting hoops and one attachment point here on the rear that's a strap. So let's go ahead and show you how to get the bike off of the vehicle now.First, I'm going to go ahead and remove the rear points, since most of our contact and security is going to be in the front and from here, I'm going to hold onto the frame and loosen up this torque knob here and that's slowly going to lower that back and bar down and once I've removed that tension, I can kind of hold onto the bike, remove a little bit more on that torque knob, and slowly get it moved down as I'm holding onto the bike, as well. more

Inno Roof Bike Racks Review - 2020 Mazda CX-5- Video
Andy: Hello, everyone. Andy here with etrailer.com. And today, we're going to take a look at the Inno Tire Hold 2 roof bike rack on our 2020 Mazda CX-5. One of the reasons to choose the roof mounted bike rack, instead of let's say a hitch mount, and you might have a cargo basket or cargo carrier that's back on the back, you don't have the options or you have a factory mounted roof bars, this would be a great choice because it is an easy installation with all shapes and sizes as far as the roof bars that it mounts to. It's a quick and easy installation with no tools needed, and you can adjust it whether you want it on the driver's side or on the passenger side as well.So having this as a option on your CX-5 works best with carbon fiber or carbon frame bikes, is tire mounted or wheel mounted, and it will be able to adjust to other size frames, other size wheels as well. So it could work great with kids' bikes. more
