Swagman Truck Bed Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Fork Mount - 9-mm Skewer
I bought this bike rack because I didn't want to have to remove my bed cover every time I wanted to take our bikes on a trip. This rack works perfect because I can roll up my cover and this thing just clamps across the bed. Taking the front tire on and off is kind of time consuming but when I travel with my brother who has a hitch mount rack, it takes him just as long to unload his bike as it takes me to unload. The wheel mounts tighten easily and the bikes appear secure during long drives, so I don't worry about them coming loose. Of course, you'll want to wrap a bike chain around the bike and rack if you plan to leave them out to make sure no one can steal the bike (although it would be missing a wheel)
It worked well, but not without doing some "tweaking". When set down on the bed rails the locking pin would not line up with the hole in the bar so it took some filing on the hole to get it to work. Also the axle mounts would not set flat on the mounting pads so that also took some work with a file to get them to mount flat. Once I got all of that done it works fine.

Inno Velo Gripper Bike Rack for Truck Beds - C-Channel Mount
I have a 2021 Toyota Tacoma and they work perfect for my downhill mountain bikes, love them. Can load and unload without ever having to climb into the back of my truck
Works as advertised - a very well designed product. Puts the bikes firmly at the side of the bed so you can use the center channel for bulky items. Very pleased with this purchase

Softride Shuttle Pad Tailgate Pad for Mid-Size Trucks - Up to 6 Bikes - 54" Wide
Order process was easy & information was great. The order processed quickly & came on time. It looks & works greats. It was easy to put on & took only a few minutes to install. I have 2 expensive bikes & one is an extra large frame. It fits great. The only thing I had to add when transporting was a strap around the tires on my tailgate as a precaution & to prevent any movement. It would be fine without it & the product works exactly as I expected. I put in on a 2000 Toyota Tundra. Very Happy! Exactly what I have been looking for & the price was just right. Thank You!!!
Received this tailgate cover very promptly, two days ahead of scheduled delivery date, and just in time to use yesterday. Cover was dry easy to install ( no directions required) and fit my tailgate well. I particularly liked the included Velcro tie downs and access pocket, which allows you to utilize your tailgate release. As you can see from the attached photo, it easily accommodated 4 additional bikes w/ front wheels still attached, and allowed me to transport 7 total bikes of varying design. Our 4 hr drive showed no indication of movement and the cover stayed in place securely. Great product!

Swagman Patrol Truck Bed Bike Rack for 2 Bikes - Fork Mount - 9-mm Skewer and 15-mm Thru-Axle
The quality of the rack is fantastic. Sadly the keys do not work on the Locking Quick Release Skewers. I've contacted Swagman about this and am waiting for a response.
Quite pleased with nearly everything regarding this rack. Setup was super easy right out of the box, loved that I didn't need any tools. Bikes feel very secure and I haven't noticed any shifting or movement while driving around. My only complaint is that it's possible for someone to remove (or steal) the locking skewers when there's no bike attached just by unscrewing the endcap. Even if the handle is locked in place, just unscrew the endcap and you can remove the whole locking mechanism. So...works fantastic when there's a bike to be hauled, but makes me uncomfortable when I just park the truck and walk away. Works great, could just be a bit more secure.

Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier - Fork Mount - Bolt On
Love this product! I built a great bike carrying system for my F-150 using two of these fork clamps. They are easy to install and extremely well made. No more tangled bikes and lots more room in the bed for other stuff! Best way to go for a nice bike rack system. Thanks, Phil T.
The Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier - Fork Mount - Bolt On, is just what I was looking for to be able to build a bike rack for carrying one of my bikes on my motorcycle. It was easy to mount and it holds my bike in place while riding on bumpy dirt roads, city streets, highways and even when I hit some twisty country roads. It's really easy to load and unload my bike when I get to where I want to ride. I use a velcro strap around the quick-release and the fork arm as an added safety as well as a couple tie-downs from my bike handlebars to my motorcycle passenger pegs to help distribute the weight on my rack. If you want to build your own DIY bike rack I totally recommend the Hollywood Racks Truck Bed Bike Carrier - Fork Mount - Bolt On.

Yakima BlockHead Single Bike Truck Bed Mounted Rack - Bolt-on - 9-mm Skewer
Have used the block head bike mounts by Yakima on trips of 800 to 1500 miles with no incident. Easy to mount the bikes and they have not released even on bumpy roads. Great product for my truck box and bikes are always in view. Easiest way I have found to transport our bikes
I ordered five (5) Yakima Blockhead Mounts for my trailer to carry bikes to include a tandem these worked great. etrailer fullfilled the order and shipped them quikly. I recommend etrailer to everyone :)

Thule Insta-Gater Pro Truck Bed Bike Rack - 1 Bike
I was not sure this rack was right for me when I ordered it, but the Thule reputation convinced me, and I’m glad I pulled the trigger on it. This fits nicely in the bed of my truck, and secures my bike quite well. I have to drive about 25 miles via mountain roads to get to my paved trail…curvy roads with elevation changes…and I have zero worries about any calamities… For a single bike situation, it’s a great solution that keeps the bike in the bed, not on the back bumper.
Linda and I recently ordered two Aventon Pace 500 NextGen E-bikes from [bike store] in Madison, WI. Not wanting to just toss our expensive new bikes in the back of the p/u when they arrive next month we promptly ordered the Thule Instagator from etrailer. My prior experience with etrailer came as a recommendation from a friend. I was able to do quite a bit of the research on etrailers website, the demonstration video extremely helpful and we placed an order. The racks were in-stock, shipped promptly, etrailer providing a very nice tracking link that included pics of the staff involved in processing the order and a map of the route all the way to delivery. Absolutely 1st rate service. The racks showed up in perfect condition about two days after placing the order, exactly as promised. We are very pleased with etrailer, will most certainly be ordering from them again and recommend this company w/o reservation. Nice job etrailer!

Saris Traps Fork-Block 3 Bike Rack - Triple Track - 47" Long - 9-mm Skewer
This works perfectly in my 2007 Nissan Quest minivan. I am able to securely and rapidly store and transport 3 bikes wile keeping 3 seats usable in the van. The base is heavy enough that it stays put so that the bikes stay still and do not knock into each other on the trip. I *might* be able to fit 4 bikes in there, but only if I put down another seat, leaving room for only 2 passengers, so I'll say 3 bikes and 3 people in my minivan is the sweet spot for this. It really is nice that I can load them so rapidly and that the bikes do not have to touch each other.
the product is very good from a durability stand point. But lacking a bit when it comes to flexibility of design. The platform at which the traps are attached could be further re-designed to include the ability to extend or contract to provide a better fit whether the application will be inside the back of a van or on a truck bed. Also some additional suggestion would be looking at ways to anchor the track when use inside a van or SUV. The price I paid for this product i would consider high because of the lack of versatility in terms of use. Would i recommend it? well if you are looking for a nice looking track with traps this would be your choice. Don't get me wrong the quality is very good I just wish a bit more thought was put into it before pricing it. There are other more economical ways to reproduce what this product can be used for; for a lot lot less.

The Huk half is a solid bike pad for the back of your truck. It's gonna fall into the more premium category for it. In general, the reason you would select the half is if you just have one or two bikes that you're transporting. Also, if you're wanting to still keep half of the truck bed open for whatever else you may be taking out along with you. The material that it's made out of is TPU, and essentially what that is is a weather resistant, abrasion resistant material that's super soft to the touch that's gonna help keep the bike, you know, keep any damage from your bicycle, as far as scratching.

Mount: Kuat Huk Tailgate Bike Pad for Mid-Size Trucks on a 2020 Toyota Tacoma
Hi Matt with etrailer, and today we're gonna be talking about the Kuat Huk Mid-Size Tailgate Pad on the 2020 Toyota Tacoma. Now this is gonna be a great option for trucks since it sits on your tailgate pad and it's very easy to use but since it just sits on your tailgate pad, it doesn't have a weight capacity. But keep in mind, if you want to put any heavier bikes up here like your e-bikes, it might be kind of hard to lift it up that high. Another thing to note, we're gonna have one strap down point just right on the frame. So we don't recommend using any carbon frame bikes. Something I do like about this pad is that it has these adjustable straps, if needed, you can actually take these straps out completely and move it over to another location.
Yakima GateKeeper Tailgate Pad Review - 2020 Toyota Tacoma
Hi, Matt with etrailer. Today, we're gonna be talking about the Yakima gatekeeper tailgate pad on the 2020 Toyota Tacoma. The gatekeeper's gonna be an excellent choice for the Tacoma because it's gonna be able to hold up to five bikes at once, which is a lot of bikes, especially compared to a lot of bike racks that are mounted on your hitch. 'Cause a lot of times they can usually only accommodate up to four bikes, and if they can hold a lot of bikes they're gonna stick out by a ton. Now, something else I do like is the way it holds your bikes up in an organized way, rather than, if you kind of just threw your bikes in the bed they'd be kind of bumping each other, and scratching one another up. So those are definitely great features about this pad.
Mount: Kuat Huk Half Tailgate Bike Pad for Trucks on a 2020 Toyota Tacoma
Hi, Matt with etrailer. And today we're gonna be talkin' about the Kuat Huk half-size tailgate pad on the 2020 Toyota Tacoma. Somethin' to note, it's gonna have the ability to hold up the two bikes and it doesn't have a weight capacity, so you can even accommodate your heavy e-bikes. Now, keep in mind, lifting up those heavy E-bikes will be kind of a struggle. It's gonna have one point of contact on your frame and that's gonna be tied down with that strap there. So, we don't recommend using any carbon framed bikes on here just in case it damages your frame.

Speaker 1: Today on our 2018 Toyota Tacoma, we're gonna be test-fitting the Rocky Mounts low ball bike rack for truck bed factory track systems, part number RKY1097. The Rocky Mounts low ball allows you to carry up to one or a few bikes in the bed of your Tacoma because it utilizes the track system on the inside to attach it. It simply clamps into place and into the channels here and tightens down with two screws, and does come with a tool to tighten those down. It tightens into place with our skewer mount here, so basically what this does is it works with quick-release wheels, but it also has a lock on the end of it, so once you attach it then it is secure to our mount here. However, it does have enough space in between here to place a cable lock through as well, which you can purchase on etrailer.com.While it does work with quick-release skewers, there is an adapter to use this with through axles, which you can find on etrailer.com as well. Another bonus about this bike rack is the fact that you can move it along the track at any point as long as the bike still fits, so it does have some maneuverability, and it also provides enough space for you to store other items while you're traveling.
