Yakima Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Nissan Xterra

Hey everyone, Charles here at etrailer. And today we're taking a look at the Yakima StageTwo bike rack on the 2015 Nissan Xterra. So this is a great bike rack, especially if you have your carbon frame stop bike, since it is a front wheel mount, you don't have to worry about warping or damaging your frame, but also great for any of those frames with the weird step throughs. So just odd shaped frames. It's gonna be made out of a durable steel construction. It's gonna last you a long time and be rust resistant as well. more

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2015 Nissan Xterra

Hey everyone, Charles here at etrailer and today we're taking a look at the Kuat Sherpa bike rack on the 2015 Nissan Xterra. So, I've said this before, but I like any bike rack that is held on by the front wheel. To me, it just makes it easier to load and unload your bike. And I think it's just a more secure connection than your frame mounted style. But it's gonna be great for your odd shaped frames, as well as your carbon frames. It's not going to warp or damage that frame. more
