You need to buy the bar that goes from the steering to the saddle for the bike. Thule makes one and Yakima makes one as well. The will allow your wheels on the bike to look better on. In addition the bike rack needs to be pushed in all the way not sticking out where the pin hole gets used. This will create too much movement as well as scrapes and damage to your hitch area. It’s meant to be pushed in all the way and the pin is used in case of emergency when you did not tighten it enough, the pin stops the rack from fully being removed.
Good info
I love my Tesla bike rack because it blocks my license plate and thus makes my car "INVISIBLE" to speed cameras
That's hilarious!!
😂
Tesla solving problems!
lmao michael
Take the front tire off the bikes and you won’t have clearance issues going into driveways and such. That cable is not going to stop a bike thief. The design of the carrier is really impressive, and with referral credits you could get it for less than one referral. I just don’t see myself buying it for $540!
Yeah I agree, it is overpriced!
The bike rack that can be attached to the towbar was pretty flimsy(20 Eur) , I bought this decent device to secure my 5k bikes;)
How did it work for you?
@@Myksgarage I will let you know. Just ordered this set;)
I purchased my Model Y Performance with the factory tow package. I am using the Thule rack and my bikes sit on the trays without damaging the carbon frames. It is not uncommon to have $12,000 in bicycles on the rack.
Did you have to have a tow package on your Tesla to install that rack?
Yeah tow package is needed
Hey Myk! Do the sensors go off when the bike rack is in its retracted position? And does Tow Mode affect any transmission settings that would impact range?
No, not when it's in the folded position. I would assume that it affects range, any change in the aerodynamics can do that.
That's basically a Yakima Ridgeback branded as Tesla
Yes!
Wait, is that tow insert on all Tesla Model Y? Or that something you buy from the dealer?
The tow hitch is an option from Tesla, you can add it on if yours doesn't have it
Is there anything specific about this rack that only works with Tesla’s or can it work with other vehicles as well?
It can be used used with any 2 inch receiver
감사합니다.
Thanks for the tip!! 😀
I have this same bike rack for my Bronco Sport and its sucks! I hate the way the bikes are attached. Used it twice, not it’s collecting dust in my garage!
Yeah, it's not my favorite design either
Is it for sale 🤣🤣
Why does it stuck
@annette
I'm worried about the wheels being damaged when you drive through a dip. How much clearance do you have?
Oh the wheels on the bikes?
How do I get it off. I am having a hard time removing the rack stand. Any tips or videos will be appreciated.
Yeah it's a pain to remove
great vid
Thank you!
I dont see tow mode on my tesla.
Do you have the tow hitch?
Do you need to buy a hook or just it ?
What kind of hook are you referring to?
Will it fit the truck?
Yes, this bike rack will fit on a truck
How does it affect the range
It reduces range unfortunately. Anything that affects the aerodynamics of the car will reduce the range.
i got the rack and after installing it it leans towards the left. is that expected?
I think the rack is a piece of junk
Ball is not need, is it?
It's not needed
Looks like this rack would not work for my E - Bikes.
Yeah it won't
I had the yak rack like this. These damage bikes.
I had the Ridgeback and sold it. Got the Hold Up bike rack.
How did it do damage?
I had a Yakima previously and it scratched the frame up. I switched to the Thule T2 which secures the tires. I did not want to damage the carbon frames.
Lock through the tires! Bye bye bike.
Oh?
How to buy
