The easy to use Express lets you carry up to 3 bikes on the trunk of your Dodge Durango. Sturdy steel rack features dual arms, rubber cradles and easy-to-operate adjustment hubs. Six straps anchor it securely to your car.
Features:
Specs:
Note: This dual-arm rack reduces the need for a bike frame adapter bar (sold separately) to mount a children's, women's, or alternative frame bicycle. However, to mount certain bikes or to keep your bike level on the rack, a bike adapter bar may be required. Most step-through bikes, dual-suspension bikes, and small children's bikes will require a bike adapter bar.
The Express rack puts the fun in functional by letting you carry up to three bikes on the trunk of your vehicle. So you won't need a hitch or have to lift bikes over your head to load them on a roof rack.
Adjustment Hubs and 6-Strap Attachment System
Two interlocking hubs with hand knobs ensure a proper fit on your vehicle. Just twist the hand knobs to open the hubs, and unfold the base of the rack. Then place the rack on your trunk and adjust the base's support arms to the desired angle. To secure the base in that position, line up the teeth on each hub and tighten the knobs back down.
Six adjustable straps with rubber-coated metal hooks and cam buckles secure the Express to your vehicle. And four foam pads on the rack's base help protect your car's finish from scratches and abrasions.
Dual Arms with Cradles
Dual arms support your bikes and better accommodate women's, children's and alternative frames. Rubber cradles with straps firmly grip your bike's frame. The cradles rotate and slide along the arms, so you can easily adjust them based on the type and number of bikes you're transporting. And you can use the integrated safety strap to help keep your bikes tied down.
Folding Design
When it's not in use, the Express can easily be folded flat for storage.
A security strap and a cable lock (sold separately) are recommended to deter theft of the rack and your bikes.

Speaker 1: Today, on our 2012 Nissan Versa, we're going to be test fitting the Hollywood Racks Express 3 Bike Rack, part number HRE3. As you can see, we already have a bike installed, so let's take a look at some of the features before we take it off. Each cradle, as you can see, can pivot from side to side and can move back and forth, in order to accommodate to your specific bike frame needs and the spacing on your bikes should you have it fully loaded. The bike itself is secured from two different points of contact. You can see the these rubber straps we have that simply come off and fasten pretty easily around the notch right there, and secures your bike very well.We have a stabilization strap included for when you are carrying a full load. You simply pull it around, wrap it around all three bikes, and fasten it down, in order to keep your bikes compact for travel.
The strap right here is not included with the bike rack itself. We simply have it on there for the reasoning of avoiding contact from the front wheel to the rear of the bike. This does not come with the bike rack, as I said, but you can purchase it at etrailer.com. inaudible 00:01:17.Now that we have gone through those features, we can take the bike off. Simply pull down on the rubber strap, undo it from the notch on both sides, and then you can pull the bike off with ease.
I'm going to take a second and show you guys the measurement. I'm going to show you the distance from the back of the bumper to the outermost part of the bike rack. Adds about 18" onto the back of your vehicle. Now, because these arms do not fold down or adjust at all, you want to keep that in mind for when you're going out on the town, or even parking in your garage.The bike rack itself makes contact with six different parts of the vehicle. You have two rubber coated straps at the top of your vehicle, two more around the tail lights, and then also two more at the bottom of your trunk.
That makes the six different points of contact is a good way to ensure that your bike rack is fully secured to your vehicle. The bike rack also comes with four foam pads in order to help avoid any type of damage to occur on the body of the car itself, or even the back windshield. What Keep in mind when you have the bike rack installed on your vehicle, you will not be able to use your back windshield wiper, as it would make contact with the top of your bike rack frame.The bike rack's adjustable simply by loosening these knobs on both sides of the rack, and then it can fold up or down in order to meet the specific needs of your vehicle, meaning that this bike rack is also accommodating to many types of cars, SUVs, or even minivans. Just be sure to check the fit guide at etrailer.com. Well, there you have it for the test fit of the Hollywood Racks 3 Bike Rack, Express 3 Bike Rack, on our 2012 Nissan Versa..

The easy to use Express lets you carry up to 3 bikes on the trunk of your vehicle. Sturdy steel rack features dual arms, rubber cradles and easy-to-operate adjustment hubs. Six straps anchor it securely to your car.This bike rack is INCREDIBLE!!! Absolutely GREAT quality! EASY to install/remove!! Amanda L. was AWESOME in her customer service representative capacity!! I also purchased a roof rack system to transport my new kayaks. I AM looking forward to installing this unit, with anticipation of TOTAL SATISFACTION, which I've found with the HRE3!!!! 493899
Easy to order. Great customer service. Fast delivery. Fantastic product. 343523
You answered my question correctly, in that the straps were long enough to reach. However, it's a good thing I got the three-bike rack since due to the shape of my car I can only use the cradles furthest from the car. It works, though. Had a successful test over the weekend. I would rate your customer service, "Excellent". Thanks! 78409
I was wondering if the trunk is still usable while the rack is in place? Especially if there are bikes on it. Would I be able to hold the bikes up or have someone else to pop the trunk and access the inside? My mom said doing this would relieve the tension holding the rack on, but it looks like the straps only hook to the trunk lid itself and not any other part of the car so it seems possible. I was just wondering if I could still open the trunk with 1 or 2 bikes on the rack if I needed access to something in the trunk during a trip. Thanks!
-- comment by: Holly - 05/14/2013We do not recommend opening the trunk with the bikes still mounted. The trunk lid simply was not designed for it. If the bottom support rests on the bumper, then the bike rack would shift when you open the trunk. If the rack only touches the trunk lid, then you still end up putting more load on the trunk struts and hinges, plus the trunk gets some of its strength from how it fits to the rest of the car. If you need to access the trunk, it is best to remove the bikes.
--Can this be used on a Honda CRV 2013 with the hatchback because the picture you provide only shows this being used on a Honda Accord or other small car with a trunk Not a CRV ???
-- comment by: Kevin T - 07/31/2013I double checked the Hollywood Racks fit guide and they confirm that it will fit a 2013 CRV.
--Will this carrier work for a girls bike? Also, is it as sturdy and easy to use as the Thule Passage 2?
-- comment by: Steve O - 09/07/2013It will work with a girls bike, but will probably require the use of an adapter bar. Check out part HRBA-PRO. The Passage will be somewhat easier to setup on your car. Thule has numbered fitting system for the Passage. You look up your car in the instructions, find the dial number, and set the Fit Dial on the rack to that number. No more guessing as to how and where the base should sit.
--Will this rack fit on a 2008 Ford Focus Sedan?
-- comment by: Jared S - 12/02/2013I checked the Hollywood Racks fit guide, and our own, to verify that the HRE3 will indeed fit your 2008 Ford Focus Sedan.
--I bought this to haul three adult bikes on vacation. I didn't want to spend several hundred dollars on a rack that would only see occasional use. I was a bit concerned about what quality I was going to get for $70. I opened the box and was happy to see this rack was as good as it was. In ten minutes I had the rack installed and the bikes loaded. Every stop along the way I checked the straps and not once were they loose. I'm very pleased with this rack and would highly recommended it. 416857
Quick delivery Great Customer Service. Have transferred it easily between two cars very good quality especially for the money we paid Extremely satisfied 668822
We have kept the bike rack on the car all this year. It worked well for us. It fit the odd shape of our Chevy HHR. We had no problems with the rack. It was a little difficult to get the hard rubber latches together, but it became easier as time went on. We carried an adult bike and a child's bike. 588518
Great quality bike mount! 435261
The product is easy to use and get set up. I am able to get everything up and going in a few minutes. 317969
Seems like a sturdy, reliable product so far. Components are solid and well put together. Fits great and carries well on my 2014 Corolla. Excellent value considering the price tag on other racks out there. And the prompt delivery was great! 289117
I like your product, put on and off, no reason to not recommend. 285166
This rack performed EXACTLY as advertised. Lots of tech help if you need it....makes it foolproof. One of the best values for the money I've ever seen. 276236
Perfect! Still works like it did on day one. Have enjoyed it all summer.
The product shipped quickly and installed easily on my car, A 98 Toyota Camry. While it is intended to be a three bike carrier, it will only hold two as the first set of bike mounts does not extend past the trunk deck. They could be adjusted outward, but then the spacing would be too close together. I am not particularly bothered as I only need to carry two bikes anyway. I think the three bike rack is still a better purchase because it comes with the extra set of side straps for stabilization. 272391
Very good and accurate information as to which rack fit on which car. Easy buy, quick delivery. I'm a happy customer! 260643
This bike rack is great. Very easy to put on the car and holds the bikes just fine. Quick and easy. Love it!
Seems to be a very good product and fit perfectly! 256677
I just got it today. Put it on my car, attached my bike. Amazing quality for the money! 201149
Prechristmas: This is a christmas present so i have not looked at the product yet. However, the shipping speed and packaging are excellent. Thank you for the fast service. 166598
Excellent product, shipped quickly. Very good followup. Would order from this company again. 163905
Bought this rack for my 2006 VW Golf. I couldn't be more pleased with this product and this service. The rack was very affordable even with shipping costs compared to racks that require a hitch. The rack came assembled in the box and the instructions were so easy that I had it on my car in 10 minutes after unboxing. I have used it three times now. It is incredibly easy to put on. It is very secure (i'm using 2 bikes on my rack), and it is very easy to store. I also received a courtesy follow up email with more info on how to use the rack a day after it arrived. 5/5 would buy this rack from etrailer again. 141257
Easy to assemble and install on the car! 135324
Awesome 129262
Works as discribed. 128421
This racks my 2012 Ford Focus SE perfectly. Was able to fit two beach cruisers and a mountain bike with minimal effort. Ordering process could not have been more smother and they even upgraded my shipping method for free....nice! Unfortunately, we already took the bike rack down before I wrote this review so I could not take any pictures. 122806
Fit great on my hatchback vehicle 92876
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
A picture is worth a thousand words so this should say it all. The HRE2 bike carrier rack fits my 2017 Camry no sweat. It was easy to install and is well made. I will be using it for the first time in two weeks. Glad I made the purchase. I saw several in stores that were approximately the same price but were not as well made. Thanks for a great product. 527527

Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
At first I was disappointed because I could not figure out how to get the adapter bar to fit into the rack. Customer service (Dylan) was EXTREMELY helpful and assured me that if it didn't work they would do whatever was necessary to make it right. Well, it turns out it was my fault and once I figured it out it worked GREAT. Super solid rack! I drove 80 miles in the rain the first day I got it and I had NO problems. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking for a good bike rack on a budget. It is solid. More importantly rest assure that you will be treated well by this company and your transaction will be smooth. Thank you! Pictures coming soon. 501014
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Product fits as it is supposed to and the service was top notch. 147203
Product is fine, but due to the frame design on my wifes beach bike it mounts with a tire high in te air, which now gts in the way of the two kayaks we bought this winter and have mounted on the roof of the car.
Thanks for the follow up Tom, you might want to consider using an adapter bar like the Hollywood Racks # HRBA-PRO. This will help your wife's bike be carried in a more level position and avoid some of the interference issues you are having.

I wish I would've spend more money on a better bike rack. It's impossible to fit two bikes on this thing. My bike pedals have scratched my car bumper by using this bike rack, and the padded bits on the trunk have left marks as well. Don't waste your money on this bike rack. Save up and get a better quality one. 584368
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Received the Hollywood Racks Express 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Fixed Arms - HRE2 for my 08 mit eclipse. Took only a couple of days to receive. Like all other reviews takes only 10 minutes to install. Took my first trip with the bike and rack this morning. Bike didn't move at all. Was fasten and secure. Was able to handle all turns and bumps. I was nervous about the rack being exposed as i park in a public place all day. The rack is easy to remove and store into the trunk. And to reassemble just need to reattach the hooks. Easy. The rubber straps that secures the bike were a HASSLE the first time. But after the first use it gets much easier as they loosen up a bit. Now no more removing my bikes front wheel and storing my bike inside my trunk everyday. Great purchase and product 276325
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Installation was simple, even easier if you watch the YouTube. Mounted the bike rack on my BMW, which is to say the least ... my baby. Not a scratch or bruise during installation. Mounted two bikes on the rack and drove about 30 miles to our favorite trail. The rack was simple to remove ... took off two bottom trunk straps and put rack in trumk. After ride ... took out rack and placed two straps in lower trunk ... snugged up and took off. The ride and to and from was in traffic and over a bumpy back road ... I kept checking ... bikes never moved. I always used a trailer hitch rack in the past but this lighter weight and compact trunk mount is just as safe and much less of a PITA to get on and off. I would high;y recommend this product. 385978

Easy to attach to trunk. Very convenient and light weight and can hang in my garage in the winter. I can lift my bike on and off the rack myself. 697763
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
The instructions weren't clear enough for me because I didn't understand that it has to be at a 90 degree angle, but once I got it together, it fit perfectly on my 2012 Toyota Camry. I'm very happy with the fit and the strength of it. My bike stayed sturdy on the highway and it's easy to get on and off. 674701
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Easy to use, stable and secure. It makes our ability to take the bikes anywhere, having fun everywhere. Thank you! 673748
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
The rack was easy enough to mount on the car. I wish there was a more secure way of securing the bike on the rack. Rubber straps can break over time. If web straps were used it would be a more secure. 644072
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Very happy with the product! I was worried about finding a bike rack that would fit onto the trunk of a Kia Soul, but this one did the trick. It was very solid and has survived multiple trips across the US (it's traveled over 1,200 miles at a time with no need for adjustments). The only reason that I don't give it a 5-star review is because I can't use my back wind shield wiper while the bike rack is attached (this is only because the shape of the Kia Soul, I'm sure that there would be no issues if I had a car with a normal shape). 639412
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Great bike rack that was easy to install and adjust to my 2012 Fiat 500 Pop C. Owing to its price, the bike rack boasts a simple design that functions just as well as any 'fancier' bike rack that may have more bells and/or whistles. It stores easily and I don't fear my bike moving or scratching my hatch-door (or any other part of the vehicle) during transport at all. As always, I wouldn't recommend leaving the bike rack on unattended without a security device installed. The bike rack is foldaway, and easily fits into the trunk space of my car when folded. It's a little cumbersome to readjust the arms for every transport, but I'd rather not give anyone the opportunity to steal or break into my car. Thus, I recommend this to any one who is an occasional bike rider who enjoys the hobby but maybe doesn't see the value in investing tons into transporting their bike(s) around. 636938

Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
The customer service was really above and beyond! The order arrived faster than anticipated and I received several emails checking in about my experience. The bike rack is nice – very solid, easy to put together. I’ve driven a couple hours with my bike on my car so far, and it is very secure. The assembly process only took a few minutes, however I did have to slightly open my trunk to get the hooks securely latched. 539488

Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
It's a pretty solid bike rack. The only reason i give it a 4 star is because I have 2 27.5" medium sized frame mountain bike and I can only fit one on there at a time 525929
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
Fits my car, an 83, perfectly! Never thought I’d find a modern rig that could fit such an old car but the set up is easy and it seems like It could fit almost any type of car! Fantastic product 518785
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
I give this rack an excellent rating so far. It was easily installed on my 2013 Malibu following the written directions in the box and the video on the website. I have used it once since receiving it a couple of days ago. My bike was quite steady and secure. It is also easy to remove the rack from my car, and I like that I can open my trunk if need be while the rack is attached. I will be using the rack to take two bikes to Florida from Ohio this summer and will update this review after that trip. 518489
Review from a similar Hollywood Racks Express in Trunk Bike Racks
I have been using this bike rack for a year now and it is still holding up very well. I have got my money's worth and then some. Never a problem at any speed on the interstate,during rush hour traffic,and on rural roads. Just a very good investment that will last a long, long time! 509065
Two years later and I am still using it. It is still in good shape, and I use it every weekend. You will get your moneys worth. I am glad I bought this as it is a great product!
