What to Compare Before Buying
- Tailgate width: Check that your pickup tailgate space suits the stated 131 cm width.
- Bike count: This pad is set up for up to 4 bicycles, so compare that with how many bikes you plan to carry.
- Clearance: Check handle, camera and light clearance before fitting it to your vehicle.
- Bike frame fit: The foam grooves and hook-and-loop straps should suit the way your bike frames sit in the pad.
Using It in Practice
For a typical loading routine, unfold the pad, fasten it to the tailgate, then place each bike into the grooves and secure the frames with the straps. Before driving, make sure every strap is tightened for the frame being carried and that the tailgate handle, camera and lights remain unobstructed.
Before You Decide
Confirm the 131 cm width against your pickup tailgate and check that the pad works with your bike frames and carrying setup. If you need to keep vehicle cameras, handles or lights clear, make sure the fitted position leaves enough space before choosing an offer.
