Saris Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2016 Honda HR-V- Video

Today on our 2016 Honda HRV we're going to be taking a look at the Saris Super Bones3-bike trunk mount rack with adjustable arms, part number SA802. This bike rack is secured to the two arms in three locations. We've got these two straps that come across the top here on the frame and then one here on the down tube that serves as an anti-sway strap to make sure that it doesn't swing too much and possibly hit one of the other bikes or the vehicle. Let's take our bike off there. To do that, you simply push down on the tab and the strips will release and you can pull them back through. (pause) we can take our bike off there and set that off to the side. One of the nice features about this is that with these arms being adjustable you are able to fold them down. Before we do that, let's take a measurement to see what the total distance added to the vehicle is with this rack on here. more

On this bike rack it's secured to our two arms in 3 locations. We've got the two straps that go across the top here. Then one that is on the down tube of the bike here to serve as an anti-way strap to help prevent it from moving too much and not hit the bike next to it or the vehicle. Let's remove our bike. In order to do that you squeeze on the tabs on the sides of these straps. They're also called zip strips. more

Yakima Trunk Bike Racks Review - 2016 Honda HR-V Y02634- Video

Today on our 2016 Honda HRV we're going to be taking a look at the Yakima full back 2 bike trunk mount rack with adjustable arms, part number Y02634. On this trunk mount bike rack, the bike secured down in 3 locations. It's got 2 straps that go across the top at either arm, and then down on the side where we've got the down tube, it's got one more that serves as an anti-sway strap to make sure that the bike doesn't move too far either way in order to hit the other bike or possibly the vehicle. It also features an integrated cable lock that would attach out here at the end of this arm to that post right there. Let's remove our bike. In order to do that, you simply squeeze on the tabs on either side and remove these straps which are also called "zip strips". Then we can take our bike and set it off to the side. Once we're done, it's a good idea to replace the zip strips so they don't get lost or damaged. Now let's take a couple measurements to see what the total distance is added to the vehicle. Total distance added to the vehicle, you're looking about 29 inches. The arms on this bike rack are adjustable. more
