Thule Doubletrack Hitch Bike Rack Review - 2012 GMC Sierra

Review of the Thule Doubletrack Hitch Bike Rack on a 2012 GMC Sierra

Today on our 2012 GMC Sierra well be test fitting the Thule Doubletrack Platform Style 2 Bike Carrier part number TH990XT. To begin our test fit well slide the shank of the carrier into the opening of the hitch, line up our threaded pin holes, thread our anti rattle bolt through the threaded pin holes and tighten with a wrench. Now lets go over some clearance measurements to see how the bike carrier and this vehicle fit together. There is about 16 inches of ground clearance. The closest part of the vehicle to the closest part of the carrier is about 3 inches. Weve added about 12 inches to the overall length of the vehicle.

To access the cargo area lift up the gray handle located at the base of the carrier and tilt the carrier down. This will allow you to have access to your truck bed. To load the bike, well put the frame hooks to the top of the mast, unfold the mast and undo the cradle straps. Well set the bike onto the frame cradles, tightly adjust the frame hook against the frame, and secure it with the cradle straps. That concludes todays test fit for the Thule Doubletrack Platform Style 2 Bike Carrier part number TH990XT on our 2012 GMC Sierra..
