Swagman Truck Bed Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Fork Mount - 9-mm Skewer
Perfect! Works exactly as advertised. Comes with hardware and tools to adjust for your application. I was skeptical about it staying in place with two bikes mounted while running across rough roads in a truck that has a choppy ride (2011 Ranger). It didn't budge. Would buy it again in a heartbeat and cant see why someone would pay $100 for an aluminum one.
I have a 2007 Ranger, the bed has a spray in liner, but the bed rails have a factory liner topping. In order to feel comfortable with the security of the installation, I had to make the bike rack so tight that the rail cover buckled. I had to take the rack out and then silicone the rail cover back down. The problem was fixed by adding small turnbuckle to secure the rack to the bed tie downs. I could not use the pins to secure to the rail as the hole in the rack was below the thin bed rails on the Ranger.

Swagman XTC2 Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
I was sent additional mounting materials that don't correspond with my hitch or my bike rack. See the photo below. Are these materials for my Swagman STC2 Bike Rack Item #S64670?
Very stable and simple to use bike rack that works great with my road bike AND with my 29" Big Rippers. It makes loading and unloading the bikes a snap and they are safe and secure for traveling once loaded and secured. I have already logged over a thousand miles hauling bicycles with this rack and highly recommend it. I am a big fan of Yakima roof racks but, honestly, wish I would have went with this setup for my bikes from the beginning.

Swagman XC2 Bike Rack for 2 bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
was able to attach the bike rack to my 2020 equinox without any problems. Right now only 1 bike on it but will have another one later. Ready for a "glow roll."
Excellent bike rack. Got it together and heading to the trail in 15 minutes and the whole rack is solid (no looseness at the hitch) and the bike is secured tightly. Bike sits raised at or above the height of my step bumper on the Ford Ranger that it is attached to. Does not touch tailgate but with the bike in the inner position the tailgate and campershell cannot be opened at all. Easy to use a cable lock. The only real negative is that with the rack bolted into the reciever hitch (which DOES get rid of all rattle) it is necessary to use a wrench to take the rack off the truck. So, I will be using the bolt for long trips and a standard hitch pin for daily rides on the trail. I would buy this again because of the great bang for the buck and because it is solid, well made, and secure.

Softride Shuttle Pad Tailgate Pad for Mid-Size Trucks - Up to 6 Bikes - 54" Wide
Slips a bit--need to pay attention on long hauls. But for shuttle, or when you can't fit all the kids bikes into the standard hitch-mounted carrier, this is a great choice.
Order process was easy & information was great. The order processed quickly & came on time. It looks & works greats. It was easy to put on & took only a few minutes to install. I have 2 expensive bikes & one is an extra large frame. It fits great. The only thing I had to add when transporting was a strap around the tires on my tailgate as a precaution & to prevent any movement. It would be fine without it & the product works exactly as I expected. I put in on a 2000 Toyota Tundra. Very Happy! Exactly what I have been looking for & the price was just right. Thank You!!!

Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier - Fork Mount - Bolt On
Love this product! I built a great bike carrying system for my F-150 using two of these fork clamps. They are easy to install and extremely well made. No more tangled bikes and lots more room in the bed for other stuff! Best way to go for a nice bike rack system. Thanks, Phil T.
The Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier - Fork Mount - Bolt On, is just what I was looking for to be able to build a bike rack for carrying one of my bikes on my motorcycle. It was easy to mount and it holds my bike in place while riding on bumpy dirt roads, city streets, highways and even when I hit some twisty country roads. It's really easy to load and unload my bike when I get to where I want to ride. I use a velcro strap around the quick-release and the fork arm as an added safety as well as a couple tie-downs from my bike handlebars to my motorcycle passenger pegs to help distribute the weight on my rack. If you want to build your own DIY bike rack I totally recommend the Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier - Fork Mount - Bolt On.

Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack - 1 Bike
Fits a 93 Ford Ranger w/Truck box! Just have to strap front tire down. This is what I was looking for. Thanks!!
This product is great. It was everything I had hoped for to secure my bike.

Thule GateMate Pro Tailgate Pad for Mid-Size Trucks - Up to 7 Bikes - 53" Wide
It has 7 different areas to strap bicycles down but there is definitely not room to strap 7 bikes down from what I can tell. The straps were a little tricky to feed under the tailgate and pull up at the same time with only one person. Overall it works pretty well but it appears to only have enough room for 4 MTN bikes.
Work good for my Toyota Tacoma 2023 tailgate

Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack - Bolt-on - 9-mm Skewer
Have used the block head bike mounts by Yakima on trips of 800 to 1500 miles with no incident. Easy to mount the bikes and they have not released even on bumpy roads. Great product for my truck box and bikes are always in view. Easiest way I have found to transport our bikes
I ordered five (5) Yakima Blockhead Mounts for my trailer to carry bikes to include a tandem these worked great. etrailer fullfilled the order and shipped them quikly. I recommend etrailer to everyone :)

Swagman Patrol Truck Bed Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Fork Mount - 9-mm Skewer and 15-mm Thru-Axle
The quality of the rack is fantastic. Sadly the keys do not work on the Locking Quick Release Skewers. I've contacted Swagman about this and am waiting for a response.
Quite pleased with nearly everything regarding this rack. Setup was super easy right out of the box, loved that I didn't need any tools. Bikes feel very secure and I haven't noticed any shifting or movement while driving around. My only complaint is that it's possible for someone to remove (or steal) the locking skewers when there's no bike attached just by unscrewing the endcap. Even if the handle is locked in place, just unscrew the endcap and you can remove the whole locking mechanism. So...works fantastic when there's a bike to be hauled, but makes me uncomfortable when I just park the truck and walk away. Works great, could just be a bit more secure.

Hollywood Racks Sport Rider SE Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Very nice bike carrier for my Radrover E-Bike. Very well engineered!!
This rack is heavy, easy to assemble and has zero wobble. The reason I purchased this rack was due to the quality of the rack, but also my last experience with trailer. Great customer service, and if you have a question, it's pretty easy to get hold of a real person! I actually purchased this for an Ebike.

Hollywood Racks SR1 2-Bike Carrier - Spare Tire Mount
This HRSR1 bike carrier will not fit a 2023 Jeep Wrangler JL UNLESS you remove the stock Liddy Light and associated bracket. Upon discovering this, I was able to locate an aftermarket kit which allows for the relocation of the light to just above the rear camera. The kit was easily installed and the bike mount was installed just as easily as the directions explain. The new location of the light is partially obscured with the bikes mounted and, although not ideal, it is adequate and certainly better than total removal. I was unable to find any mention of this situation in the install instructions or reviews prior to purchase of the rack. I just wish I had been aware of this before purchase. I would have rated 5 stars for this product were it not for the slight hiccup. Kudos to etrailer. It is always a pleasure to do business with them. They are very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.
It's sturdy even off-road, and it's simple to take on and off. I've had to use my spare tire twice since owning this rack, and although I have to remove my bike and loosen the bike rack bolts a bit, it comes off and goes back on with minimal effort, which is nice when you're on the Alaska Highway and it's snowing. I've carried my full-suspension bike on this rack for 35k miles all over the U.S. and Canada. I like how my bike fits close to the tire, where I lock it. My tailgate opens without the bike touching the side of my Jeep. Great bang for the buck.

Swagman Tailwhip Tailgate Pad for Mid-Size Trucks - Up to 4 Bikes - 54" Wide
No difficulty putting the pad on my Tacoma tailgate by myself. I have an E-bike with a larger than normal down tube but the straps on the pad were sufficient in length to get around the tube and firmly affix the bike to the pad. 1st transport was about 25 hwy. miles and all went well. Good access to tailgate handle and back up camera if needed.. Satisfied with the purchase.
Very satisfied with this product! It is plug & play out of the box, it takes 1-2 minutes to install, and it fit my Honda tailgate like a glove. The cover is lightweight yet fully protects my trucks finish. The Swagman is an excellent value.

Hollywood Racks Destination Bike Rack for 4 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Super easy to load 4 bikes and go. Takes me 5 minutes to get all 4 on the rack, compared to 15-20 with the rack I had before. I would change nothing honestly. It's a fantastic rack. It has performed great. I can now quickly load 2 kids bikes and 2 adult bikes on the rack with no special adapters. We can hit trails faster and spend more time riding. There is no real downside. It's also significantly cheaper than competitors and provides a much easier and smooth experience. Is it a great rack for small families who want to ride together. No adapters needed for different sized bikes and super easy to load and unload. I would not recommend this particular model if you don't plan on using more than 2 slots. But for 3 or 4 it rules.
One year in and it is great. I have a 2021 Subaru accent and it is perfect. We carry 4 adult bikes and while it is a tight fit it works great. The rack is VERY solid and does not move when tightened up. Over the past year we have used it 3-4 times with no issues so far. It is easy to use and one person can easily load and unload the bikes. The tilt up feature is nice and when the rack is down and there are no bikes we can open the back hatch without an issue and there is plenty of clearance. We have been very happy with the performance and the price.

Thule T2 Pro XTR Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount
This bike rack is awesome. Our two e-mountain bikes fit perfectly on the rack. We have taken them on long road trips with no issues. Great bike rack.
Great sturdy rack, and the wheels are very beneficial. Have never been a fan of the Thule locks, but the rack makes up for it.
How to Install: Kuat Huk Tailgate Bike Pad for Mid-Size Trucks on your 2021 Ford Ranger
Hey, everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Kuat Huk on our 2021 Ford Ranger. Now, this version of the Huk is going to be considered the mid-size one, but it is going to cover the full length of our tailgate here on our Ranger. Now, the Kuat Huk is going to be a tailgate pad that can accommodate up to five bikes. If you're looking for something to carry around maybe not as many bikes, there is the half pad version, which only covers up maybe about 1/3 of your tailgate, but it can only accommodate up to two bikes. But this version able to accommodate up to five bikes is a really nice thing, especially when you compare it to some of our hitch-mounted bike racks.
Installation: Kuat Huk Half Tailgate Bike Pad for Trucks on a 2021 Ford Ranger
Hey everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Kuat Huk on our 2021 Ford Ranger. Now the Huk does come in multiple different sizes. Today we have the half-size one on today, which can help accommodate up to two bikes. If you are looking for something to carry more, they do make a full-length one for the back of trucks like our Ford Ranger, which can help accommodate up to five bikes. But if you don't need to carry around that many, the half-size is going to be a perfect solution for you.
Test Fit: Kuat Piston Pro Bike Rack for 4 Bikes on a 2021 Ford Ranger
Hi everyone. Hayden here at Etrailer. Today we're gonna be taking a look at the Kuat Piston Pro Four Bike Rack and seeing how it fits on the back of our 2021 Ford Ranger. That's gonna be a really high-end platform style bike rack that mounts up into your two inch by two inch hitch. So if you're looking for a hitch mounted rack you're in the right place. That might not be my first choice for carrying bikes on the Ranger, since you do have the truck bed.
Fit Check: Hollywood Racks Destination E Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes on a 2021 Ford Ranger
Hey everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Hollywood Racks Destination E on our 2021 Ford Ranger. The Destination E is going to be a platform style bike rack able to accommodate up to two bikes, with a very impressive weight capacity of up to 70 pounds, which means that we're going to be able to carry our heavy electric E-bikes which is kind of the main draw, and a lot of the features are built around that idea here with the Hollywood Racks Destination E. As we can see, our main point of contact is going to be on the frame here. So unfortunately, our carbon frame bikes are not really going to be an option available for this rack. But depending on your alternative frame bike, you might be able to adjust the knob to clamp on or if you get some sort of bike adapter part, we could easily accommodate for that.
Does it Fit? Testing the RockyMounts GuideRail Bike Rack for 2 Bikes on a 2021 Ford Ranger
Hey everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the RockyMounts GuideRail on our 2021 Ford Ranger. Now the GuideRail is going to be a platform-style bike rack, with a individual weight capacity for 60 pounds per bike, which is really nice, meaning that our heavier bikes and our electric bikes are going to be an option for this rack. Our two main points of contact are also two ratcheting arms one for the front wheel and one for the back wheel, meaning we are making no frame contact, which also means that our carbon frame bikes and our alternative frame bikes are going to be an option for this rack too. So the amount of different bikes that this rack can carry is a big diverse amount, but how does it really operate with our Ranger Well, the GuideRail has a tilt-away feature that if we pull this handle right here, it'll actually tilt down. And surprisingly enough, with our Ranger here, we can actually lower our tailgate and it does not make any contact.
How Does the RockyMounts AfterParty Swing Away Bike Rack for 2 Bikes Fit on a 2021 Ford Ranger?
Hey everybody, Cooper here at etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the RockyMounts AfterParty on our 2021 Ford Ranger. Now the first thing we do wanna show you in what makes the AfterParty such a unique bike rack is the included swing away feature on it. So as we come down here to the bottom there is going to be this knob that after we loosen up a little bit Oh, there we go. And then we unthread. It will allow us to go ahead and pull an additional knob here on the top and then the whole entire rack will swing away from our vehicle.
Fit Test: RockyMounts MonoRail Bike Rack for 2 Bikes on a 2021 Ford Ranger

And our two main points of contact are going to be our front wheel hook and a back strap, meaning we're not making any of that frame contact. So, our alternative frame bikes, as well as those carbon frame bikes are going to be an option for this rack too. The MonoRail does have some really cool features, such as a tilt away, which is engaged by a handle right here towards the back and then lets you just slowly tilt our rack away from our Ranger.

Hey, everybody. Welcome to etrailer.com. I'm Bobby, and today we're taking a look at the Kuat Sherpa 2.0, on our 2021 Ford Ranger. Now, if you're looking for a quick easy way to start kind of getting up on these platform racks, starting to get some of our lightweight bikes to the trail head with you, this can be an excellent option.

Hey everybody, welcome to etrailer.com, I'm Bobby, and today we're taking a look at the Kuat NV 2.0 on our 2021 Ford Ranger. Now the Kuat NV is definitely one of the top of the line platform racks out there and that is for a reason, it's got a lot of great features, it looks really nice and is extremely easy to use. So, let's go ahead and start breaking it down for ourselves. As you can see, it is a tire hold format here, so if you're looking for a way of transporting your carbon frame bikes, this is going to be an excellent option as we don't have any frame contact, so we wouldn't be warping those carbon frames, won't be deteriorating them, so we actually are going to be able to trade support them with no problem at all. With that as well, since we have a tire hold system, we are going to get those women bikes, step through bikes and even those kiddo bikes with no issue at all. A lot of the times, you actually need like a bike adapter bar to get these to work on those frame clamp systems, however today as you can see, we're going to have no need for those at all, and with a 60 pound capacity rating per bike, we are going to get some more bigger, heavier, beefier bikes up on here with no problem at all, that even includes those big e-bikes, yes you can even take off those battery packs though, to really reduce that weight, hopefully make for a clean system and as we can see, can take the strain off our bike rack, those batteries can be hazardous, not only to our frames but also to our rack and our vehicle, so let's make sure we're storing those away.
