Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2007 Toyota Prius

Speaker 1: Today on our 2007 Toyota Prius we're going to be test fitting the Swagman Semi 2.0 2-bike platform rack for 1-1/4" and 2" hitches, part number S64686. We have a bike already installed on our rack. Let's take a closer look and show off some of the features.How it actually attaches to the rack, we'll have two points of contact. We're going to have a wheel hook up at the front, which is pretty nice because it doesn't make you buy any extra accessories such as an adaptor bar as you would for a frame mount. Plus, it's a lot easier on your carbon frame bikes as well. It also has an integrated cable lock, which is a new feature for this model that wraps around the frame of the bike and attaches to itself at the front here to deter theft.

Now, it's also available in silver, if you're interested in that, on part number TH9035XTS.

Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2007 Toyota Prius

Today on our 2007 Toyota Prius, we're going to be test fitting the Kuat NV 2.0 platform rack for inch and a quarter hitches, part number NV12G. We already have a bike installed on the rack so let's go ahead and take a closer look and show off some of the features. The first feature I'd like to show off is the fact that it can tilt away from the vehicle with the bike still attached. To do that, we'll come to the front here to this lever, pull it towards us and holding on the bike rack, you come down gently and now we have full access to our rear hatch to get what we need. To put it back in it's original position just lift up. And you're good to go. How this bike actually attaches to the rack, there's going to be two points of contact. We're going to have this padded wheel hook up at the front and this wheel strap at the rear. Now the wheel strap is adjustable along the arm here to accommodate different sized bikes.



RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2007 Toyota Prius

Today on our 2007 Toyota Prius, we are going to be test fitting the RockyMounts SplitRail 2 bike rack, part number RKY1130. We already have a bike installed on the rack, let's go ahead and take a closer look and show off some of the features. The most prominent feature of this bike rack is the fact that it can tilt away from the vehicle with the bikes still attached. To do that, we have this switch up at the front underneath. You pull it towards you and it will tilt away. This is pretty nice considering that most bike racks that have this tilt feature, the lever is actually underneath the front bike which can make it a little bit awkward when you have 2 bikes installed.



Thule Raceway Trunk Mount Bike Rack Review - 2007 Toyota Prius

Today on our 2007 Toyota Prius, we're going to test fitting the Thule Raceway Truck Mounted 3 Bike Rack. Part number TH9002XT. To begin our test fit, we'll go ahead and set our fit dials to number 7 and that's per the manufacturer's instructions. Once we have the aero indicator lined up with number 7, we can close those levers and then place this under our vehicle. Now we already cleaned the surfacing where our bike rack makes contact. You want to be sure to work on a nice clean surface to avoid any damage to the finish of your vehicle. With the lower arm in the bottom of the license plate well and the top arm resting gently, just here at the bottom of the glass. We're ready to set out top hooks. In order to do that, we'll pull up on the lever that has the aero point up for our top hook and then we can extend out our retractable cable. We'll go ahead and fit it at the top of our door and then we'll go ahead and tighten that strap down, that way it'll hold our bike rack in place and allows to tighten other straps. We can repeat this process for the other side. We do find it a little bit easier to go in from the corner of the hatch door and then move to the hook to the proper position. Once we have those wheels here on the end tight, to secure our straps, we can repeat that process for our bottom hooks. Now we do need to open our rear hatch door just a little bit to allow us to place in those bottom hooks.
