Video Transcript for Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Carrier Wheel Strap Assembly Review

Hi everyone. It's Evangeline here at etrailer. And today, we'll be taking a look at our replacement strap for our Hollywood Racks bike racks. So, this is gonna fit your Hollywood Racks Destination bike rack just like what we have here. Although, double-check the product page to see the updated list of racks. This is gonna be an exact replacement for these straps that are on your Hollywood Racks bike rack.

So, what tends to happen, especially with the Destination Series is that you use your strap on your rack to secure the mast. Now, if you have this tightened down by a lot and then you get a lot of wear and tear on there, you can bend that strap a bit and possibly break it. Another thing that may happen is maybe you lose the strap or you just cut it up with your bikes. So, when that happens, what you're gonna need is that exact replacement and that's what we'll take a look at. So, then your strap is gonna replace as a set of one strap with four parts.

So, you're gonna have this knob, you're gonna have this strap, you're gonna have this wing nut and bolt, then you're gonna have the rubber cushion. So, then this will all work together to create in a complete system. I'll show you how to take the old one out and put the new one in. You're gonna start by loosening this knob at the end. So, bring it out all the way till it comes out of that bolt, and then you'll be able to take the other strap out and through.

And then on the other side, take the entire system off. So, if you have individual parts that needed replacement, let's say, your bolt was stripped or you wanted a replacement rubber cushion, this comes as a complete set. You can switch them out with the new ones you have, but I recommend just completely replacing the whole thing. So, let's do that. So, assemble everything by putting that rubber cushion on that strap, putting the bolt right inside that bracket.

And then with that setup, you can then put this onto your bike rack. For your Destination racks, you're actually gonna have two holes here, depending on the wheel base of the bike that you're carrying. So, choose the one that fits your bike. So, just do the process I showed you earlier with taking off your strap but in reverse. And you can see how nice and new your new strap system is. If you had multiple straps that you need to replace, do the exact same process and then you're good to go. So, this was a super quick and easy process for replacing the wheel strap assembly on your Hollywood Racks Destination bike racks. Remember to make sure you get the correct part though for your different bike racks. We have a bunch of different replacement parts right here at etrailer.
