      Is it necessary to also use the cheap enclosed strap with two bikes or is that something needed when hauling just a single bike?

  • @MrRonskarvan
    @MrRonskarvan 2 года назад +21

    It is important to lock the front shock on each bicycle to minimize bounce so that nothing gets unhooked. Super important point that was not made.

      If that is the case, then your bicycle rack is an absolute piece of crap. That is entirely unnecessary and ridiculous on a good quality bicycle rack. 1UP all the way. Doesn't matter what you do to your bicycle it will never come out of that rack.

    I installed a rigid LED light bar on ours (the ones for truck tailgates) and plug it into our trailer lights connection. It really helps visibility on the highway for braking & turning alerting the person behind you since these fat tire eBikes block the normal rear taillights.
    We took our RadRunnera on the Hollywood from CO to WA to OR and back with 0 issues. They are as good as it gets!

Fantastic rack. Soo glad I didn't by the famous named roll up rack!!!! The tire loop design is much better and secure. Came with a good lock cable and sinch strap. Tops tops tops.

    Really well done video. I was kind of taken aback by the height of the rack - glad you pointed out that most hitch receivers (including mine) are lower.
    I was not aware that Hollywood was including two "small wheel adapters" with this rack - the instruction manual that I found online said the adapters would need to be purchased separately.
    I have one of these racks on order. I knew as soon as I purchased ebikes for my wife and I that we would need a way to transport them.

    Outstanding video! I have a Dodge 2500 4x4 truck that is 2" lifted. I have purchased a 4" lower hitch adapter that when used with this Hollywood rack it should raise the hitch height by 2". I am not about to load bikes in the bed it's just too high and work. I wil keep the bed available for lots of beer, ice, tailgate partys, camping gear etc. Your technique for loading/unloading bikes makes it alot easier. I am buying this rack for my 2 fat tire electric bikes one Rad Rover and Lectric XP2.0. Nice thing about bikes and rack is they are made in the USA. Thank you so much for the video. Enjoy your adventures sir.

Its only one that has the hitch anti wobble and is strictly for 2 inch only heads. E trailer has it under different name but when I went to order they said it was out of stock till Sept 10 HL84FR is the stock number on this model. Its worth the wait from all I see out there to hold 80 lbs bike each.
