Question:
Will this work for the 2015 Canyon with the OEM vinyl roll-up Tonneau cover?
asked by: Alex W
Expert Reply:
I have a solution for you but the Swagman # S64702, will not work with a OEM soft tonneau cover.
I would instead recommend the Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack # TH93VR or a truck tailgate pad like the Thule # TH823PRO.
Due to the mounting design of the OEM soft roll-up tonneau cover, you would not be able to mount the Swagman Bike bar. It would need to supported by a flat support on both the top and the inner side of the bed rail, see attached image, and most soft tonneaus have the mounting bracket on top of or just on the inside of the bed rail preventing this contact.
I have linked the above mentioned products, a few demonstration videos, as well as all the tailgate pads that will fit your Canyon to this page for your convenience.
