RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Volkswagen Golf

Hey everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at how the RockyMounts MonoRail 2 fits on our 2019 Volkswagen Golf.

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2021 Volkswagen Golf

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today we are looking at the Kuat Transfer V2 two bike rack, here on our 2021 Volkswagen Golf GTI. Now the Kuat Transfer is one of my favorite bike racks, especially in the affordable area of bike racks, because of its unique roll post design, which makes it really easy to mount and dismount your bikes, as well as it clears up space behind your vehicle. So let's take a look at one of the features of the Transfer, which is that you can tilt it away. What I like to do is just to move this arm to the side, that way I can step right into that goal post. Step on that lever and then drop this down to a tilt. more

Hollywood Racks Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2021 Volkswagen Golf

Hi, everyone, it's Evangelina here at etrailer, and today we are looking at the Hollywood Racks Destination Two Bike Rack here on our 2021 Volkswagen Golf GTI. Now, the Destination Bike Rack is one of our lightest bike racks. If you want something that is super lightweight, doesn't weigh down your hitch, and fits an inch-and-a-quarter hitch, this might be one of the best options for you, especially with how it balances functionality with affordability. So first let's take a look at the way our bike is mounted to this bike rack, so we have one, two straps holding the wheels in place. Then we have this frame mount. Now, the frame mount is very interesting because it has a 360 degree of rotation, so depending on your bike's frame, you can move it up or down, left, right, and around. more

Thule Helium Pro 2 Bike Rack Review - 2018 Volkswagen Golf

Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2018 Volkswagen Golf GTI, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Helium Pro bike rack. This rack can hold up to a total of two bikes. However, if you need to carry an additional one, there's a three bike version available as well. One of the really big questions we get asked in regards to hitch mounted bike racks, is if you're still going to be able to have full access to your GTI's hatch. Now, this one does fold down out of the way and allows us to do that. more

Speaker 1: Today, on our 2017 Volkswagen Golf, we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat transfer 2-bike platform rack, part number TS02G. Now, it's also available in black, using part number TS02B. Our Kuat transfer 2 is gonna be a 2-bike platform rack that's gonna have a lot of features that are gonna come in handy.I know a lot of times, we'll have our bikes loaded up and we're either getting ready to leave or getting ready to go out riding our bikes and we forget something in the back hatch. So, instead of taking all the bikes off and having to deal with all that hassle, if we come to the foot lever here, we can push down and with our bike still loaded, we can tilt the rack away from our car and we'll be able to get into our hatch and get anything in or out that we may need. And it's simple to put it back in place. We can simply just lift up and it'll latch back in.Now, our bikes are gonna be held by two points of contact. more
