I would be happy to! Since you mentioned both of your bikes have fenders I strongly suggest staying away from wheel mounted bike racks like the Saris MHS DUO Bike Rack item #SAR73MR you were looking at. Depending on how far down your fenders go…
Hello Don. Our best option for a super heavy duty bike rack is the Yakima OnRamp LX #Y88DJ. This has an 80 lb per bike rating which give you plenty of cushion. 80 lbs per bike is the max rating for any hitch mounted bike rack we offer, so this…
We recently had a the Saris representative on-site and one of my questions was about carrying bikes with fenders on a hitch bike rack with carbon framed bikes. He relayed his own experience with the same problem. He said the Saris MHS Modular Bike…
Hi Rebekka, The Kuat NV 2.0 Bike Rack for 4 Bikes #NV22G-NA22G has a ratcheting arm that will interfere with front fenders so it unfortunately wouldn't be the best option option for hauling your bikes. If you wanted to stick with the Kuat brand…
Thanks for reaching out, Roy! The term "best" can be a little subjective since everyone has their own experiences and needs/wants, but in regards to which bike rack has the best features it is the Thule Epos Bike Rack #TH99XE hands-down…
Thanks for reaching out, Daniel! The Benton Shifts&Grins Bike Rack has a 55 lb rating for all bikes both in the 2-Bike Version, part #B54FR, and the 4-Bike Version, part #B82FR. This is different than the standard platform bike rack on the market…
Thanks for reaching out, Walter! The 40 lb per bike weight limit listed on the Benton ShiftShow Bike Rack #B94FR has to do with the strength of the cradles themselves, so if you were to load up a 47 lb bike you would still be overloading the cradle.…
Hey Tom, There is a bike rack I highly recommend for your 2024 Toyota Crown and the Curt Trailer Hitch #C77ZV, which is the Saris Freedom Bike Rack for 2 Bikes #SA4412B. What I love about this rack is its unique combination of being easy to handle…
The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…
Hey Ken, so the light bar part #HLY54RR that you referenced was designed specifically to fit the Hollywood Racks Destination part #HLY66ZR but I am sure if you wanted to make it work it would be possible.
Yes, the information in the question you mentioned is accurate. This came directly from the folks at Saris. So for the Saris Bones 3 #SA803, if the Hatch Huggers #SA3035 are used in place of the side hooks they do not limit the carrying capacity.…
Hey Mike, I wouldn't think that RockyMounts would get sued for the design of the GuideRail Bike Rack for 2 Bikes #RKY97ZR although I do see how they are pretty similar. RockyMounts is pretty smart so I am sure they paid attention to any patents…
