SportRack Evader Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2012 Chevrolet Suburban

Review of the SportRack Evader Hitch Bike Rack on a 2012 Chevrolet Suburban


Today on our 2012 Chevy Suburban were going to test fit the Sport Rack Evader 3 bike carrier for inch and a quarter and 2 inch hitches part #: a30403xt. With our vehicle equipped with a 2 inch hitch and our bike rack already preassembled with our 2 inch bushing, we go ahead and slide the bike shank directly into the receiver tube and line up the hitch pinhole. Then well install and tighten down our anti-rattle bolt and clip. With our anti-rattle bolt tightened down we can see it really takes out any movement between the bike shank and the receiver tube. Now, lets go ahead and take a couple of measurements. From the nearest point of the upright of our bike rack to the bumper is 10 inches.

From the lowest point of the rear of the bike rack to the ground gives us 22 inches of ground clearance. Next, well go ahead and pull the pin on the base of the bike rack and tilt it away from the vehicle to gain rear cargo access. As you can see, with the bike rack tilted away from the vehicle we have plenty of cargo access. Now lets go ahead and put our carrying arms back up, well undo the hold down straps to prepare to load our bike. Now well go ahead and set our bike into position and resecure the hold down straps and just like that in a few simple steps weve gone ahead and secure our bike to the bike rack and the bike rack to the vehicle.

Now were ready to hit the road. And that does it for our test fit of the Sport Rack Evader 3 bike carrier for inch and a quarter and 2 inch hitches part #: a30403xt on our 2012 Chevy Suburban.
