Hi Tom; I wasn't able to find specific specs for a Giant Trance 3s so I'm not 100% sure if the bike rack can hold it. Looking at similar models like the Trance X 3 I'm willing to bet it can. As long as your bike doesn't weigh more than 35 lbs, have a wheelbase larger than 48", or have a tire width greater than 3.0" the # HLY94FR will work for your bike.

Hi Robin, Thanks for the info. If by wheelbase, it's axel to axel, it's about 45". We currently have a Thule Dual, which is quite heavy to put on and take off and cumbersome. Looking for something lighter, lockable, and will hold both bikes. Seemed like the Hollywood is a good choice. We have a 24 Subaru Crosstrek with 2" hitch, and don't drive far with the bikes. I kind of ruled out the hanging racks as the bikes would need a crossbar to work and a little higher lifting. Best, Tom

@Tom yes, that is correct. As long as it doesn't exceed the weight capacity at 35 lbs you're set. The models I looked at were 33 lbs so I'm sure it is close but hopefully not over.

@RobinH One last question on the bike rack, as the bikes seem to be within spec for the rack. Are there replaceable parts on the Hollywood Destination? This Thule seems to break the wheel hold quite easily and replacements are pricey. Tom

@Tom we have the Replacement Wheel Strap Assembly # HR27FR, Replacement Mast Support Brace with Knob # HLY54VR, and Replacement Wheel Tray # HLY64RR right now. I'm sure there are other parts available but we usually carry the most common parts until someone requests a specific replacement.
