Nothing super exciting but very useful. I have had a different version of this in my truck for years and LOVE it. Simple device that holds your bike securely and allows EZ transporting of three bikes in the pickup. Also keeps your truck bed from getting bowed in front from the pressure of your front wheel. Sure you could build this your self but this comes all done for you, nicely painted and all the needed hardware. plus cool hardware like the long handled nuts making this a EZ install instead of a frustrating one. Very nice high quality carabiner / soft tie straps. Two versions, one for full sized and one for smaller trucks. Email me if you want one. motosportz@gmail.com $155 complete set (plus shipping) - Bar / tie downs / kicker (for third bike middle bike) / all hardware these make it real EZ to install
Stupid question Kelly but how exactly does the center bike tiedown? Where do the tie downs go on the center bike? I'm quite often hauling three bikes and the middle bike is a PITA! Do you have pics with the third bike in place in your truck? Will this fit Full size Ford Superduty? T
The Long handle on the Nut is worth the price of admissions.... I've got Um..another product and that was a real pain...
Might want to provide some more info about things like the newer Tacomas with the plastic bed (no metal)... and of course the Nissan. I've got a similar product - there was no other way to tie a bike into a Tacoma that I know of. My 2006 Tacoma has little handles that slide on a rail but they only are rated for 100lbs which is not enough. Works awesome and that might be a surprisingly good selling item for you.
The "Kicker" in the middle moves the middle bike back so the handlebars don't tangle and then you just tie down to the holes just inside of where the outside bikes wheels are, in those holes. So each bike has a nice angle on the tie downs. The outside bikes then use the eyes that mount the "kicker" for the inside tie point. It is super simple. will show picks installed.
