Thule Passage Trunk Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Hanging Style
So far, so good. The bike rack was fairly easy to put on my wife's Hyundai Santa Fe; & everything seemed to stay where it belongs on the trip to Pizza Hut for supper tonight. The "roll up excess strap" instruction didn't happen (How do you roll it up & keep it rolled up?). We'll see how it works on our trip to the beach this coming week for our anniversary.
Did my research and they said this was the one. And it lived up to it. Been using it for a year now and everything is great. Thanks

Thule Hitching Post Pro - Folding Tilting 4 Bike Rack w Anti-Sway - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches
Excellent bike rack to replace my old one and folds so I can get the car in the garage without taking off. I like the hanging style of rack versus the fixed wheel style to reduce stress on bike when driving. Very easy to install. Superb and quick delivery from etrailer.
It's a pretty strong ,heavy-duty bike rack. A little awkward sliding bikes over the support mounts, but I like it. I feel confident the bikes are secured.

Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount
etrailer was the best place to search for carrier options and led me to the Thule Passage 3 Bike Carrier - Trunk Mount - TH911XT, which was just what I was looking for. etrailer pointed me to the right product at the right price and had the customer support options I needed. I highly recommend

Yakima FullBack 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
etrailer, Thank you for your fantastic service. Very impressed with your website and service from beginning to end. We are very pleased with our new Yakima bike rack and the Malone bike adapters. We had our first outing today and was soooo pleased with how the rack mounted and held our bikes perfectly in place. All down to your great descriptions, videos and car match info. Attached are some photos of our bike on our 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. Many thanks again,
Easy to attach and detach. Holds my bike well. My issue is the provided lock is only good for the mount which typically holds the second bike. If you ride solo, the instructions state to mount the bike closest to the vehicle, which has no provided lock. How they overlooked this is beyond me. 3 stars at best for this major oversight.

Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount
Our Townies fit great on this well designed rack. The website was very detailed and told me everything I needed to know to make the right selection. Even better, customer service cinched the deal with their help answering any additional questions. Top quality product and even better service.
I had to put my electric bikes into this rack, backwards, to make them fit. Not ideal, but it works.The receiving 'trays' that are intended to provide support for holding the bikes, by being placed under the bike tires, are forced to be moved to a location that is not directly under the bottom of the bike tires. While it works in this manner, it is not ideal.For the support that attaches to the diagonal bike frame, we had to remove it from the vertical rail of the rack. We reinstalled it, upside down, because that's the only way we could make it fit, or 'grab', the bike frame. Again, we made it work, but it's not ideal. We chose to keep the rack because it was so much less expensive than the Thule rack we considered buying. The bike shop owner didn't agree with us. He observed that we are putting $3000 worth of bikes on the rack and risking that investment. So far, no problems, other than the ill-fitting installation.

Yakima RidgeBack 4 Bike Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Tilting
It’s relatively heavy but super easy to install and use. No rattles from hitch or bike areas. Red Yakima stickers on the vertical beam are low quality, not firmly attached, and I expect them to peal off. Otherwise, very happy with the rack.
I have the Yakima fullback trunk bike rack and it was really good for my Honda Civic. Now when I traded in the rhe civic for an MDX i need a hitch trailer and a new bike rack. Luckily I find both in etrailer and ordered them. I’ve been using them for a year now and so far it was good. I only use two bikes for this rack so far. I made a mistake because I didnt know there was a full version of this similar to my other trunk bike that comes with built-in security cable. Next time i have to do more research. But dont get me wrong. This is a good tilt bike rack too. Check out the yakima swing arm also.
I’ve been using it more and most of the time it is installed on my SUV. Also, I bought a locking cable accessory also from Yakima to lock my bikes. So far the bike rack is working good and I have spray some WD40 lubricant to the hinges as a maintenance and keep it on top shape.

Yakima HalfBack 2 Bike Rack - Trunk Mount - Adjustable Arms
I just received my product today. It was extremely easy to mount to my SUV. I feel it is very secure and safe.
Super well built. The quality and thought behind the strapping bike ties and overall look and fit is exceptional. This goes on my BMW X5 perfectly. If there is a challenge it is the weight. This is VERY heavy and a bit of a bear to get up on my roof for mounting. That being said I’d buy it over and over again. A super solid quality rack.

Kuat Beta Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Trailer Hitches - Tilting
It was easy to put on our 2013 Lexus 450 hitch. Directions were clear. I liked the sturdiness of the carrier. Very solid with no wobble even over our Santa Fe, NM roads. I have included an extra mystery part picture. Let me know where it goes.
I am so happy I chose this rack. As described, this rack is lightweight. For me this was a major concern due to limited strength. If I can lift it then most anyone can. It is well made and sturdy and looks heavier than it is. When folded, it takes up very little space. It will fit in the back of an SUV or trunk. Due to this design and lightweight it is easy to put in the hitch receiver. Even if I only use it to get the bike to and from the bike shop it is well worth it. Can't go wrong.

Yakima FullSwing 4 Bike Rack - 2" Hitches - Swing Away
This is an excellent rack. The hinge and locking mechanisms work very well under heavy loads, allowing the opening of the car's rear door without having to unload or even adjust the bikes on the rack.
This is a great bike rack. It’s amazing how much weight it can hold while swinging out of the way of the lift gate. Because of that, though, it has to be quite heavy, so keep in mind that it is a little bit of a beast to handle. It can be a little tricky to fit four bikes on it, and my small kids’ bikes required Tube Tops to fit, but this might be similar for most racks.

Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - 2" Hitches - Wheel Mount
The products ordered through Etrailer were of good quality. The company was prompt with their sending procedures. Also, if I had questions they answered them immediately. In addition, I had an out of stock order that was sent to me as soon as their stock was re-supplied. The customer service people were great. I would deal with this company anytime with faith that they have reliable products and good service.
It's quite expensive bike rack which made in China with problematic quality control. I have to disassemble one of the bike bases in order to remove the metal shavings inside of the end of the arm which were interfering with cable lock preventing it get fully retracted into the tube. Inside tube, there are no coating and metal started to rust already. If you leave it mounted on vehicle and this thing gets into the rain, this will greatly accelerate the rusting process. And rusting is not covered by warranty as stated in different post. So you warned... When I told etrailer about the quality problems... Customer support answer was hilarious. Quote from Odelia K. : "I am sorry but I do not know where you may be able to order this for shipping to the UK." Btw, they just shipped my order to GA, USA... where did I mention UK? I have unpleasant experience with etrailer.com. I would not recommend it.

Curt 2 Bike Platform Rack - 1-1/4" and 2" Hitches - Frame Mount - Tilting
Assembled this in 60 minutes! Looking forward to using it this weekend. Working with etrailer was awesome and the item quickly shipped. Great experience!
The rack carries the bicycle safely and securely, as advertised. However if some other method had been provided instead of pins that must be removed and reinserted to tilt the rack or fold the rack, I would have given the rack a higher rating. The pins work ok, but this feature could have been more user friendly. Also, I was concerned that I could carry my Bike Friday NWT, a bike with a very low crossbar and 20-inch wheels. I submitted the question of fit to etrailer and received a prompt assurance the the rack would work. It does, however the hoops that capture the wheels allow the wheels to settle deeper than if the bike had larger wheel (26" or more). My bike has fenders and I am planning to trim about an inch or so from the rear end of the front fender so that it doesn't hit the hoop. The technical team at etrailer are excellent. I have especially valued their installation videos when purchasing other products. etrailer gets the full 5 stars.

Curt Premium 4 Bike Rack for 2" Hitches - Tilting
The bike rack is great. It was easy to put together, and it is very silent when driving around, with or without bikes on it. The fold-away feature is great for getting into the back of my car without taking the hitch off. Despite the moving parts it doesn’t rattle or shake. The rubber straps are nice to use, much easier than plastic straps or metal clamps. See the photo below of it installed on my 2016 Subaru Outback; license plate edited out. Highly recommended.
Took the bike rack off the pedestal and welded a receiver onto the pedestal. Then put a receiver cargo rack into the receiver. This setup is then mounted into the receiver hitch in the back of my 20 ft RV motor home. Worked great. My stuff in the cargo rack is off the road, I can still parallel park the RV in city parking spaces, backing up is a little easier because I don’t have to worry as much about the cargo rack hitting something. Anybody need an additional rack for the bikes.

SportRack Ridge Swing 4 Bike Rack - 2" Hitches - Swinging
Perfect fit on 2004 Honda CRV utilizing Curt 13535 hitch. Easy to assemble, high quality construction, and ample clearance for the exterior-mounted spare tire on the rear hatch of the car. My only (slight) gripe is the concave stabilizing bracket on the rack (designed to secure to the downtube on a mounted bike) is too small a diameter to fit securely around any sizable downtube. Would be nice if the bracket was about another 1” across the concave portion to better fit many standard mountain bikes. I think most small diameter road bike frames should fit ok. I placed a rag between the bracket and my downtube to prevent the bracket from scratching the downtube.
I have a truck camper that sticks out about 20” beyond the bed of the truck. I bought an 18” extension for my hitch and the sport rack for the bikes. The sport rack fit right in to the extension and gave me another 6” or so of clearance which was enough to clear the camper. The rack was easily assembled and installed in about 30 minutes. The rubber straps that hold the bikes on the rack we’re a bit cumbersome at first but ok once I got the knack of it. I’m carrying two ebikes that weigh a total of 125 lbs.. the rack seems to handle them well. But I haven’t been on any long trips as yet.

Hi everyone, it's Evangeline here at etrailer and today we'll be taking a look at our Kuat Sherpa 2.0 2" bike rack right here on our 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe. So the Kuat Sherpa is a pretty good bike rack when it comes to the premium features that you would expect from a Kuat bike rack, but not as pricy as say a Kuat NV So we'll take a look at the different features, the different specs, different measurements just to see if it's the right fit for your bicycles and your Hyundai Santa Fe. So first, we're gonna tilt this down. You have this lever right over here, you're gonna wanna pull that lever and just let it drop down.

RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe
Hi there everyone, John here with etrailer, and today we're gonna be taking a look at the RockyMounts Monorail two bike rack for our 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe. Now the Monorail is going to be a amazing bike rack whenever it comes to the versatility that it has. It can handle everything from your road bikes to your e-bikes, and that all comes down to how it holds your bike in place, and the weight. The weight is going to be able to handle 60 pounds per bike. So it's gonna be 120 pounds in full, which is very good. There are a couple of e-bikes that we'll probably go over this weight capacity, but for the most part it's gonna be handle any type of bike that you have when it comes to the weight.

Zach: Hey guys. Zach here at etrailer.com. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Camber Four Bike Hanging Style Bike Rack on our 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. This is a hanging style bike rack, so it's going to do a really good job of holding our bikes in place.

So Thule tried to do a good job of spacing these out a little bit.
Rhino Rack Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe
What's up everybody it's AJ with etrailer. Today I'm going to be showing you the rhino rack, two bike hanging style bike rack on this 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. The first thing you'll notice is it is a hanging style bike rack, which means the bike kind of hangs around the cradles instead of being held by the wheels on a platform like in a platform style rack. Which means it might not be the best option if you have a carbon fiber bike like more expensive bikes, you're worried about scratching, the frame or indenting or anything like that if these straps. If you're just worried about any of that, this is probably not the way to go. You'd want to put it on a platform rack.
Kuat Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe

Zach: Hey guys, Zach here at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Swagman XTC2, two bike platform style rack on our 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. So the XTC2 is a really good entry-level bike rack if you're looking for a platform style rack. So the difference between a platform style rack and a hanging style rack is that the, instead of the bike hanging, which can create some issues, even with the anti-sway cradles of really tight contact bikes may be coming into contact with each other as you're going down the road. With this style, the wheels are going to mount into these wheel mounts down here at the bottom. And they're going to strap in with these straps right here.
Reese Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe
Zach: Hey, guys. Zach here at etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the Reese Explore 3-bike hanging-style bike rack on our 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. So this is going to be a 3-bike bike rack, and it's going to be pretty simple design, but it's going to be pretty effective of getting your bikes to wherever you need them to go.One thing that separates this rack versus some other hanging-style racks, is it going to actually tilt away with the bikes on there. So the way you do that is it has this pin and clip down here. And you want to keep a hand on the rack, but you pull this pin and clip out and you can slowly lower this down.

RockyMounts Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe
What's up, everybody AJ here, with etrailer. Today, we're going to be showing you this RockyMounts MonoRail on this 2020 Santa Fe.First thing you'll notice is it's a single-bike bike rack. If you only have one bike, you go do the trails by yourself, like I do, this is all you need, really. But, if you're worried about buying a single-bike rack, and then all of a sudden needing to carry two bikes if a friend wants come with you or something like that, you can pop this off and do an add-on of another one, and then it carries two bikes. But today, we're just going to focus on the MonoRail, just one bike.Right out of the gate, I want to show you, now, if you're like me, sometimes you forget stuff in the back of your car. I forgot my helmet before, and instead of taking the bike off, and the bike rack off, or climb through the back seat, which is kind of a pain, you can actually just tilt it down with the pull of a lever, which is nice.
Swagman Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe
Hey guys, Zach here at etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the Swagman CURRENT 2 Bike Platform Style Bike Rack on our 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe. Now the Swagman CURRENT is going to be an excellent solution to get some of your beefier bikes to your destination, whether it's your electric bike, like we have here, fat tire bikes. But it's going to do a really good job of holding most style bikes. The one exception I would say is with this being a frame mounted bike rack is, I wouldn't put your carbon fiber bikes on this. It's something that you're going to want to maybe look at a wheel mount.
Saris Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe
What's going on everybody, Adam with etrailer. Today we're going to be taking a look at the Saris Glide EX 2, hanging style bike rack on our 2020 Hyundai Santa Fe.

Thule Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe
Ryan: Hey everybody, Ryan here at etrailer. Today on our 2019 Hyundai, Santa Fe, we're going to be taking a look at the Thule Helium Pro platform style bike rack.The rack that we have here today is a two bike version, but there's also a one bike version available as well. But with that being said, one of the things that really separates this platform style rack compared to some of the others, is that it uses two wheel hooks, one on each tire. So, that's going to work out really well for those of you that have those carbon fiber bikes, you won't have to worry about any frame contact.Now, a lot of times with platform racks, when you get a couple of bikes on them, you run into the issue of putting that second bike on there and having interference with your seat, the second bikes handlebars can get jammed up and it can be a real hassle sometimes. That's not going to be the case with this one and that's because we're able to offset our bike. So if loosen up our wheel hooks a little bit, you're actually able to roll the bike one way or another, and clamp it back down.
Rola Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe
Ryan: How's it going Ryan here at etrailer.com. Today on our 2019, Hyundai Santa Fe, we're going to be taking a look at the Rola TX-102 Bike Rack. Now, I really like when a bike sits on the rack. It's going to be high enough off the ground, but we don't have to worry about anything down there, but it's not just set up so high that it's going to block, or obstruct the view of the back window.Your bike's is going to be held in place at three spots. We're going to have two straps, here on the top tube, and a strap down here. And this will act as anti-sway strap and that'll help prevent any bike to bike contact.
Reese Hitch Bike Racks Review - 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe
Ryan: How's it going. Ryan here at etrailer.com today. Today on our 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe we're going to be taking a look at the Reese hitch mounted three bike rack, which is also available in a two bike, as well as a four-bike version.One of the things I really like about the rack is how simple it is to use. It's going to hold our bike down here in two spots, using hook and loop straps. So we'll go ahead and take it off. Take a better look at the rack itself.
Love it. I would buy it again. Today I would give it a 5 star rating.
