Video Transcript for Topline Expandable Truck Bed Bike Rack Review

This is a two bike truck bed carrier from Topline. This lightweight compact is perfect for the on the go biker, with easy installation and removal it keep your bikes secure from bouncing around in the bed of your truck. This bike also comes with a locking key to keep honest people honest and is easily converted to carry more bikes. This is by using the add-a-bike system that is sold separately. Starting from top to bottom, well cover some of the parts we have here. On top here is the arm that reaches out and holds your bike, as you can see on the left hand side here there is a clamp, that is what gets clamped to the bed of your truck. Going to the second part, this is the bar that goes between your first bike and second bike. Together they will add stability and not go anywhere.

On the bottom on the left hand side is a cable, again that is a security system to keep the bikes from going anywhere. To the right you will see a black plug, which is for trucks with over the rail bed liners. You do have to drill out a hole for your bed liner, so you can attach the clamp to it. Once you take of the rack you put the plug in and you do not have to worry about dirt or dust getting in there. Now well show you a typical installation. Before we start our install, what were going to do is mount one of the clamps to the bike first and stick the bike in the bed the way we want it. Now well mark the bed with a piece of tape. Now well take everything apart and install our clamp. Now that we have our place marked, we can install our clamp. Its pretty simple, this edge here will go behind the rail and this will clamp on top. Once we have this in place well use our eye bolt to tighten it down. Once you have it tightened the way you want it, then this jam nut has to be tightened down so it wont back off when your down the road. The next step is to loosen the clamp here the top half so you can rotate your arm. Now were going to install our first bike. Well give it a trial run here, make sure your bike is vertical. Just clamp it into place, our bike is now clamped down to our truck bed and will not go anywhere. Before we install our second bike we need to make sure we add our front tire tie strap. This will connect the front wheel to the frame so it does not move around during transport. Well install our next bike, you may want to take a couple of tries to make sure it fits right.

Now we get our cross bar, which gives us an idea of how wide it needs to be. These tubes are really big so were going to install these clamps with the handle as far out as possible on the threads. Snug them down and take a minute to make sure you have them the way you want them like they are sitting vertical. They might need an adjustment or two. Then you can clamp them down. Now well re-strap our front tire. Now all we have to do is lock up our bikes with the cable and were good to go. Well run our cable through the eye bolt and around the frames. As you can see we have two bikes secured to the back of this pickup, with an additional kit you can have up to four bikes in the bed of the truck including the first two. This is simple and easy to use design, with components consisting of aluminum and high impact plastic which will last you for a very long time and will work on all types of bikes. There you have it for part # UG2500 the truck bed two bike carrier from Topline.

Not made for beach cruisers The product was very easy to install. I first used it to carry my mountain bike and it did a good job of it. It is more secure that it seems. I tried to attach my wife's beach cruiser and I just could not get it to work. The attachments just do not open up enough for the fatter tubes of a beach cruiser. I would recommend this product to those with smaller tubed bikes. If you have a beach cruiser or a bike with fat tubes, I would look elsewhere. 1263

Simple, effective and clean I didn't want a hitch mount bike rack that gets all rusted, is too big to store easily and is a pain in the butt, so I ordered this device. It works like a dream! I can disassemble it and put it inside my truck in seconds and it isn't dirty or rusty. It's super light and it actually gets more solid with more bikes attached. It also secures the bikes well with the integrated lock system. Very well thought out. You have to strap your front tire(s) though or your bike will want to turn and will put forces on the system that it wasn't meant to handle. I neglected this step once and broke a piece, but the manufacturer sent me a replacement no charge, and quickly.436

Great gadget. This installs in a Silverado in 10 minutes or less. Holds the bikes in place well on smooth roads. I doubl that it will secure a bike (s) on a rough road without first anchoring the wheels somehow. The service at eTrailer is five star. They shipped the product likety-split, no waiting at all. Yes, I recommend this buisness and product. 29573

It arrived 3 days after ordering. My shipping was up graded without cost. It was exactly as advertised. Installed in minutes. Only a minute or two to secure a bike. I use mine for short trips only. Unsure how well it would work for long over the road trips. Might do fine but would regularly check the bolsts for tightness. 100% satisfied here.20640

  • Will Truck Bed Bike Rack UG2500 Work on a Toyota Tacoma with a Bed Liner
  • The truck bed bike rack system # UG2500 is installed by clamping directly to the truck bed frame rails. If the bed liner on your Tacoma covers the bed rail, you would need to cut the 3 inch diameter hole for installation using a hole saw, which can be purchased at any hardware store. To get a better idea of whether the bike rack will work on your application, I recommend taking a look a the close up pictures on the product page, which show the mounting style on trucks with bed liners.

  • Will Topline 2 Bike Rack Truck Bed Mounted Expandable Bike Rack Fit a 2006 Dodge Ram with Bedliner
  • With the bedliner on your 2006 Dodge Ram, a 3 inch hole will need to be cut for installation of the Topline 2 Bike Carrier Truck Bed Mounted Expandable Bike Rack, # UG2500. I have included a link to a picture that shows the unit installed on a truck with a bedliner and the hole that was cut for it. There is an included plug for when you are not using the carrier to prevent moisture and dirt from getting in between the bedliner and truck bed. I have included a video review of this carrier below.

  • Will the Topline Truck Bed 2 Bike Rack # UG2500 Work With a 26 Inch E-Zip Electric Bike
  • The clamps on the Topline Truck Bed 2 Bike Rack, # UG2500, attach to bike frames with up to 1-1/2 inch diameter top tubes. I checked for specs online, and found that your 26" e-zip electric bike weighs somewhere around 80 pounds with two batteries also. There were no specifications that I could find for the top frame bar or the weight of the bike without the batteries. If the top bar on your e-zip electric bike is 1-1/2 inches or less around, the Topline rack will work but the batteries may n

Part # UG2500, mounts directly to the bed rail and will allow you to carry 2 bicycles.

Part # UG2500 mounts directly to the bed rail and will allow you to carry 2 bicycles.

  • Bike Rack Recommendation that is Compatible with a 4 x 8 Snow Bear Trailer
  • We have not tested the Topline 2 Bike Carrier Truck Bed Mounted Expandable Bike Rack, # UG2500, on a Snow Bear trailer, so I cannot say whether or not it will work for that application. But if the trailer has side rails like those on a truck bed that the clamps of the rack can secure to, then it would most likely work. I have included a link to a video review for reference. You could also use something like the Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack, # Y01117. This would mount t

  • The clamps that attach to the bike frames on the Topline Truck Bed Bike Racks, part # UG2500 can attach to bike frames up to 1-1/2 inches in diameter. You will want to measure the diameter of the bike frames on your Giant Sedona bike and the Felt womens comfort bike to see if the clamps will fit your bikes. Another option I have is the Thule Insta-Gater Truck Bed Single Bike rack, part # TH501. This is only a single bike rack, but you can put two of them side by side in your truck bed. Thi

I would recommend you use a Yakima Tube Top Bike Adapter Bar, part # Y02531, to provide you with an attachment point for the # UG2500.

  • Truck Bed Bike Carrier Compatible with a 2006 Nissan Frontier with In-Bed Cargo Rail System
  • The Topline Truck Bed Bike Rack you referenced, part # UG2500 will not work in 2005 and newer Nissan Frontiers that are equipped with the rack system in the bed, due to the fact that the rack system interferes with the attachment point on the bed rail for the mounting clamps.

Check out the review video for this product I attached. If you cannot access your side rails then you will need to use a different truck bed bike rack.

If for some reason it cannot grip the frame, you can also try the handle bar post or seat post as connection points. I have included a link to a video demonstration of this rack for you. Another option is the Softride Tailgate Pad Bicycle Transporter, # SR26461 (Mid-size trucks) or # SR26457 (full-size trucks). The concept is simple,
