Swagman Paramount Full-Size Trucks Tailgate Pad Review - 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500- Video

Hey, it's Ethan from here at etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Swagman Paramount Seven Bike Tailgate Pad for full size trucks on our 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 2500. Might be a good option for you if you're trying to get up to seven bikes where you're needing to go, but maybe you're towing something or you don't want the added length that a bike rack will add from your hitch, this could be a good option for you. The bike is being held by the frame on these hook and loop straps in the back. You can slide them up and down a little bit to adjust. If you do have a carbon frame bike, we recommend not using a tailgate pad or anything that holds onto it by the frame, 'cause it could potentially be damaged while it's driving. more

Thule Truck Bed Bike Racks Review - 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 2500- Video

Today on our 2016 Chevorlet Silverado 2500, we're doing a test fit of the Thule Insta-gater Single Truck Bed Bike Rack. That part number is TH501. Now we already have our bike secured down. We're going to first show you how we do that and then well go over how we secure the bike rack to our truck. Here on our rack we have our bike pushed all the way up against the front of our truck bed or our tailgate there. We've got a wheel cradle down here where the bike's just going to sit right in the middle. Then back here in the back we have a wheel hook that's going to loop around the back of it and just kind of hold the bike up against that tailgate. Now to remove our bike, we're going to come over to the hook, push the button here on the end, and we can lift up our hook. more

We already have it loosely loaded onto our truck. We're going to show you how we install that first and then we're going to show you some things we can put on there. I'm going to first open my flap here and reach in and open my tailgate.
