Most Popular Inno for 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500

Using the Grippers for carrying 2 ebikes, weighing 55 & 75 lbs. I know this is above the rated bike weights but so far they have performed well. My short bed keeps the 75# bike pretty well locked in front to back so that may help.

1 year ago, ordered 2 pair Inno Velo clamp on bike rakes for pickup. One pair received damaged/used. eTrailer credited 50%. Rated average for 2 reasons. First, I couldn't get them to work securely with my tonneau cover without modifications (plastic spacer blocks to clear tonneau rail) and I can't close the tonneau cover over them when not transporting bikes. Second, while not recommended for ebikes, they kinda worked but are not strong enough for the weight of the bikes especially when needing to extend to full length. I like the idea but just doesn't meet my needs. Otherwise, they should work just fine under different applications. Best use is to install and left installed. In my circumstance, removal & reinstallation was a pain.

The NA391 roof bike rack is sleek and stylish looking. It's light and seems to be pretty aerodynamic. At the same time, it appears to be pretty sturdy. Once clamped to my INNO roof rack system, I can grab the track of the roof bike rack and pull back and forth enough to rock the whole car without it moving on the roof rack system. I would give it 5 stars but for what I believe is a design flaw that INNO seems to have overlooked. Due to the curvature of the roof on the Tucson that the Inno rack system is mounted on, the front clamp of the bike rack does not sit flat on the INNO crossbars. The bike rack comes with a spacer to use under the rear clamp to level the rack. But the bolts on the clamp knobs are too short to use the spacer. I don't understand how INNO could miss this design flaw in their own product. Even with just the thin strips of rubber spacers on the bottom of the rack on top of the rear crossbar is almost too much for the bolts on the knobs. INNO needs to look into this flaw and correct it.

I like the bike racks…I ordered two for my INNO roof rack load bars…good quality and reasonably easy to install. I did not realize etrailer also carried the same type of bike carrier that will slide directly into the T-Slot track, otherwise I would’ve gotten those instead…Oh well, that’s the way it goes sometimes.
