Review of the Tow Ready 3 Hitch Bike Carrier


Today we are going to show you part number 63123 from Tow Ready. What we have here is a folding 3 bike bicycle rack that will fit either an 1 inch and 1/4 class 2 receiver hitch or a 2 inch receiver hitch. This does carry up to 3 bikes. This bike rack does come with heavy duty Velcro straps to secure the bike to the carrier which will not allow it to be removed or be scratched. Also the cradles themselves have a rubber padding which will not allow the bikes to get scratched up and grips them nice and tight. Also this bicycle rack will tilt forward to allow access to the rear of the vehicle. Once again this will fit an inch and a 1/4 class 2 receiver hitch or a class 3 2x2 receiver hitch. It is really easy to convert it into an incha and a 1/4 since we have it in the 2 inch position right now. Pull this pin and all you have to do is spin it around and it is ready to go into a class 2 receiver hitch.

Alright, let us go ahead and install it in a typical 2 inch receiver hitch and show you how it works. Alright, next we will show the tilt feature on this bicycle rack, it is pretty easy. Again, you pull out this one pin here then move it up to this hole here. Then you simple let it sit down and it tilts to have easy access to the back of your SUV. We will show you how to load the bike. It is pretty simple. You take these straps and undo them then go ahead and set your bike into place. Then you just reinstall the straps. And there you go, the bike is secured to a cradle and you do not have to worry about rubber straps stretching or breaking or anything like that. Next we will show you the cradles on this bicycle rack. I will give you a couple dimensions. It is going to be 8 and a half inches wide so it gets a good grip on the bike and makes it more stable. And also the straps themselves, the Velcro straps, they are about a quarter wide also. The padding in the cradles themselves are a little over a 1/4 inch thick. Then on the very end of the bike rack you have a nice reflector. There you have it for part number 63123 from Tow Ready, the folding 3 bike carrier for 1 inch and 1/4 class 2 hitches and 2 inch trailer receiver hitches.
