I use a 2 x 4 with bike fork mounts attached laying across the floor of the bed. Super secure, inexpensive, and I can still lower the tailgate.

Great vid. Love that Thule system. I have a small SUV and use a 2 bike Thule rack on an 1 1/4" receiver, it's a great company for all racks. Always nice to see a new rider enjoy their first time out. I hope your bud keeps going!

Looks like a great solution for getting the bikes to the trailhead if riding there isn't possible. And faster on/off if carrying three or more bikes. Thanks!

Can't go wrong with the tailgate pad! One of the only issues I have seen with the tailgate pads is it is easy for someone to steal while at the trailhead. I run a cable lock through the tailgate handle opening of the pad an lock it to the hitch receiver to discourage theft

Good call with the handle. I wish my Thule pad had grommets for a cable.

Depends on where you take them, obviously, but I have heard of bikes being lifted from trucks stopped at lights. It is worth throwing a lock across there

Awesome demo video. I just picked up the Thule pad for my Tacoma. How would you recommend locking the bikes? The 4-5 foot Kryptonite chain locks are too short.
@bmxshippy4 жыл бұрын
And you have its too far forward. It should come down the tailgate more because that flap, is actually to allow you to access to the tailgate latch

I have a tri fold tonneau cover. Was thinking of a pad but can’t decide. My rear window will blocked by the folded tonneau cover so I can’t see the bike. Hmm I have a f150..it’s a pain to remove the pad then install it before and after a ride…

Hey I’m looking to get a small trailer about 15-18 ft. What is your best recommendation right now at this time for a budget small trailer? Thanks! And would you recommend getting used or new? Stay safe.

I couldn’t justify the cost, but they look like they do a good job. I’d be careful not to block my taillights though. How big is that trail system? That looks like a nice place to ride.

Its a pretty large system. Some tracks are 1/2 mile all the way up to 7ish miles.

Easy with 1 bike. When you have 2-5 bikes, it's a recipe for bent spokes, scratched paint, damaged derailleurs or cables, and a mess when untangling them to use.

1st time seeing a bike rack like that for the tailgate. Personally, not impressed. I’d much rather have a good Thule hitch mounted rack.
@BTBRVReviews4 жыл бұрын
I'm a fan of hitch racks as well, however, you are generally limited to 2 or 4 bikes (and I'm not a fan of hanging 5' of bikes from the back of my truck). This may provides more support and keeps the bike close.
