Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Acura TLX- Video
Today on our 2015 Acura TLX we're doing a test fit of the Kuat NV 2.0 platform-style 2-bike rack. That part number is NV12G. Now we already have our bike secured down. We're first going to show you one of our key features here. How we are tilting this away, we're actually going to pull down on this lever, tilt our bike rack, with our bikes fully loaded, away from our vehicle. Then we're going to gain full access into our trunk. more

Saris Bike Porter Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Acura TLX- Video
Today on our 2015 Acura TLX, we're going to be doing a test of the Saris bike porter. This is a folding and tilting four-bike rack. They designed it so we can use it with an inch-and-a-quarter hitch like we've got here today, our class one, or up to the two-inch hitches that you find with like your class three or class four. This is part number SA4404B. Nice adaptable rack. Now, because we are using in a class one hitch, we're going to limit this to just a two-bike capacity, but it's nice that it's adaptable. more

Today on our 2015 Acura TLX we're doing a test fit on the Saris Freedom Superclamp. This is a platform-style 2-bike rack. They've designed it so we can use it with an 1-1/4" or with 2" hitches.

Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Acura TLX- Video
Today on our 2015 Acura TLX we're going to be doing a test fit on the Swagman Trailhead. This is our folding and tilting 4-bike rack. It's been designed for use with the 1-1/4" hitch, what we're using it in today, which is a class one, or with the 2" hitches. Now one limitation with the class one hitch: we're going to keep the capacity down to two bikes. We don't want to overstress that class one, but the nice thing about it being adaptable is that we can then go right into our large SUV with a 2" hitch and not have any issues. One pretty distinguishing factor: we're going to have four straps. We've got three frame straps and then one anti-sway cradle strap here at the back to help keep that bike moving forward and back. more

Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Acura TLX- Video

The part number on it is TH9029XT. Now this is a class 1 hitch on our Acura, we are going to limit the capacity of this just down to two bikes class 2 or 3, you can go ride on out to 4. Makes it a good versatile rack that we can use it on our class 1 hitch and then still be able to switch it over to the larger vehicle and get full capacity out of it. Recent improvement has been lock that's designed to come from the mast of the rack around the frames of our bike and they connect in here at the rear using the Thule one key lock system. more
