Thanks! Do you know how I should properly measure wheel base? Would it be from axle to axle?

Great job. I watched your videos a couple of times before I bought this rack. I also bought the lights kit except for the license plate holder and light. Hoping I won't need to put this on. Thanks again.

Great video and nice tips! The summary at the end is very helpful as well. Do you mind sharing which bicycle trails you would recommend in NJ?

I have the older style Hollywood Sportrider eBike rack and it also wobbles a bit when driving. This one looks even worse and also is more time consuming to secure bikes than mine. I would look at Thule at this price range.

Ima have to fly u out to Cali to fix my foxbody stereo system!

Great video! I never comment but felt I had to. I spent quite a bit of time reading about all the racks you compared to and it helped me settle on the best rack. I never realized how bad the lights and LP are obscured. That will probably be my side project.

Excellent review. Thanks

Kevin how do I gain access to my trunk with no bike on and rack is folded up. Thanks

Nicely done video! Are you still happy with the rack? What is the clearance between the tailgate and the first back as I have a full size rear spare tire mount?

Very well done! What is the best way to ask you some more questions? I have two Lectric eBikes weighing 64 pounds each and Toyota FJ Cruiser with a rear tire mount. None of the racks you compared would seem to be compatible or anything else you can recommend?

3:47 I also bought the rack. I have safety concerns about their optional light bar not working with my Tesla Model Y. HollywoodRacks claims they can’t help with any solution and so it was returned. I’m curious if your rack’s indicator lights would solve the Tesla compatibility issue? What brand of lights are you using?

Good job, although crutch field stereo makes a wiring harness so that the installer doesn’t cut up the factory wiring.

Awesome! I didn't see your summary/comparison chart the first time I skimmed the video, but I came to the same conclusions--before I showed the whole thing to the hubs. Great, honest review. We're going to replace our Sport Rider for our Rad Rover 6+s with this, partially based on your review. Thanks!

You may be able to" just lift" a 50 pound bike instead of using the ramp for the second bike, but I cant. Bought the rack to load heavy bikes.

Great honest review, thank you!

Great review! We just started carrying these Hollywood racks at our local Bike Shoppe. Thank you so much for the info.

creaking ! really - - get off your butt and grease that baby - it's fine !!

Thanks for posting this, gained a subscriber. Will definitely be referencing this once I get around to putting the tape deck back in my 91.

wow. great video. Been agonizing with some time now on making the right choice. This helped a lot. thanks.

Will the hitch pin fit in the other way??

Looks so much better. My '91 has the regular head unit with the bass/treble/balance/fade and the premium sound, but I have a NOS head unit with the equalizer waiting to be used. I bought the correct amp for it (used, but its very clean looking). I have not tested everything to see if it needs work, but I'll have that done by whoever adds Bluetooth for me. I will likely switch to Infinity Reference speakers. I'm glad to know an underseat woofer fits, since it gives me an option for an Infinity Basslink Mini re placement besides the hatch.

Have you tried the Quikr Mach 2 bike rack? Please add it to your comparison chart. Thanks.

Excellent job on the video. Well done.

@kevinsreviews are you on instagram?

Beautiful vid and knowledge, thanks for making this

I wish I could find a video like this for my 1986 Mustang 😆

I’ve probably watched this vid at least 80 times and can’t for the life of me find where the wire/plug is for my doors to the dash. Previous owner hacked this thing pretty good and not just the audio system. This vid DID explain a ton on getting my fox back to factory. I’ve scoured the internet looking for clues but nada. My fox is an electrical nightmare. Any insight?

Thanks for this. Good tips

Perfect. Thank you so much for the video, my fox was chopped up bad, but thanks to your comprehensive explanation and gorgeous diagrams I'm now able to splice and fight my way back to a factory system!

Excellent video and review!

Thanks for your review. I appreciate your insight

Great delivery. Lots of great information I need to make a decision as a 70 yo e-biker. Agree with Mark. I need a ramp

One of the best reviews I have seen. Two bikes with fenders, one being a full step through. Excellent.

Great video! Very informative 👍🏻

Nice video! I’m a sucker for these OE radios👍

Very well thought out and presented review with some great DIY. If you do more videos like this, I am sure you will grow your channel. Kudos for including all of the links for the stuff in the video. That is a pet peeve of mine

Fantastic video. People should take notes on how to do a product review. Straight to the point and very informative.

Thanks for a great video. My compliments to you for your enhancements - they're all thoughtful. I just bought this rack a couple of days ago and chose it for basically the same reasons you point out. I'm glad to hear you're happy with it after using it. One detail I also do is use the velcro hold down straps for the top bars to help hold the bar in place when the bikes are mounted. It's just a helpful way to keep the flaps from being loose and could possible help if the bar detached for some reason. Again, thanks for the informative video!

1UP rack.

Thanks for a great review of your bike rack, and the comparison info at the end. Very informative. You have a good knack for this, and deserve more than 100 subscribers!

I remember many yrs ago I owned 4 Fords 86 cougar, 87 cougar, 89 tempo gls, 88 t bird turbo coupe and there was thing they had in common, the speakers would just stop playing one by one and they didn't have premium sound except for the tempo and 87 cougar but by the time I bought the cars someone already removed the premium, the dash then a door speaker wouldn't work anymore but instead of me just figuring out how to fix them I bypassed them with new wires and I was also an oddball person for putting in delco cassette radio from a z24 cavalier in the t bird, had do just a little trimming but it fit pretty good and sounded nice, but I did eventually learn the wiring in them and was considering wiring up the premium sound eq with a jvc cd player but never followed thru with it, I've forgotten just about everything on them Fords from this time, this was close to 20yrs ago, Nice video!

I was very nervous putting my brand new beach cruiser on this rack. kzfaq.infoUgkxG6JIgwJhur8_Rg8UeQ3EmePzi_wSncL8 But after reading many reviews I decided to get this one and take a chance. When arrived it was very simple to adjust and put together. I also added spike tape over the metal hooks before securing and tightening the straps, and no scratches. I also purchased the top bar made by the same company so that my cruiser sits straight on the rack without having to turn upside down. Extra bungee cords are used to secure the front wheel from flapping and even piece of mind knowing your bike is secure. Definitely recommend...

I just installed the few things they require. It is machined unbelievable. Holes were perfectly aligned. And this thing is so sturdy. Glad I spent the extra money on one that I don't have to worry about.

Probably the best e-bike rack video I have ever watched. Great job Kevin. I am going to get one. Thanks

Excellent review! Especially appreciate the side-by-side comparison at the end. Going with the Destination E here! Thanks again.

Promo`SM 🤤

Wait, so is it possible to have 2 of the step through rad rovers on this rack? Will the bar fit the down tube on the second bike that way?

Great information, well-presented. Thanks for this bid. Impressive rack.

Thank you for this thorough presentation. You brought insightful rigging and installation nuances that really added value!

Hey Kevin, I liked your review very much! I wish you would have compared this Hollywood Rack to the Yamika Onramp. Who mostly buys e-bikes? Seniors. Who can't lift a heavy e-bike on a bike ramp? Seniors or anyone that for some reason doesn't have the strength. So ramps are super important for these people. When you showed the hassles of loading the bikes using the ramp, and then ended up saying that basically, you don't use the ramp because of the hassles, I said to myself - forget this bike rack. One last point. I care very much about how the rack looks on the back of the car when not carrying bikes. I think this rack comes up way too high and looks ugly. So I actually want to thank you since I might have bought this rack (and been disappointed) had I not seen your well-done review. All the best!
