Is it necessary to also use the cheap enclosed strap with two bikes or is that something needed when hauling just a single bike?
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.
Good point! But it is not mentioned in the manual from the manufacturer either.
Helpful thank u sir.
You should also wear your seatbelt while driving the vehicle that is holding the rack. Another very 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.
Ouch! That thing is 💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
Very well done, sir. Within the first couple of sentences you provide the carrying capacity of the unit. Most reviewers never provide it or wait until the end. Your presentation was clear, concise and free of clutter.
Glad you liked it!
I didn't think I needed to be taught how to pick up a bike and put it on a rack, but apparently I do. Looks like I will be getting this rack for my new ebikes! Thanks for the video, it's quite a valuable resource! Wait till my wife sees how much easier it is to load bikes now!
You are a very good teacher and I really appreciate your attention to detail in explaining things that most others miss in they're reviews. Thank you for your great work.
Thanks so much! Glad you found the video helpful.
Thank you so much for this video. Mounting the bikes on the car looks a lot easier than I thought it would be considering the weight of the ebikes.
Glad it helped!
Excellent demo,I just received both my Rad 2 and Hollywood Rack,you just saved me a lot of time and answered any and all questions I had.Well done old chap.🍻
Very helpful video - clear and to the point. No extra blabbing, and no annoying music. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the BEST E-bike rack tutorial I have seen to date. I learned things I did not know about the proper installation, that applies to any rack to a vehicle, that was informative and that best protects the bike. I have the Aventon Level 2 and my hubby has a Rad Mission.
What a comprehensive video about E-bike transportation safety. Everything is covered in this video. I cannot believe the thoroughness of this video. I am amazed that this is free.
Glad it was helpful!
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!
Thank you for this demo. I just bought the Hollywood rack for our rad bike. Now I don’t have to struggle and learn from my errors 😂.
So helpful. You covered all the things I needed to know and pointed out things I should have thought about. I did read the manual but seeing you actually do it and explain the "why" was great and re-enforces the learning. Cheers
Glad it was helpful!
Fun fact - Rad Power Bikes had the Hollywood rack on sale a couple of weeks ago at 25% off list for the rack only and 30% off if coupled with an e-bike purchase. I picked up my rack and am looking forward to it when things warm up a bit. Nice video explaining its operation.
This was by far the best bike rack video I’ve seen. The entire presentation was expertly done. I’ll check out your link.
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.
This is the first video I've seen of yours - instant subscriber. 😉👍
If you order this rack from Rad, the small wheel adapters are included in the box.
I just took my ebike for a haul on my CRV on holiday rack. This is a fantastic rack, sturdy the hitch tighener left zero wiggle. The tire loops really gulp the tires and hold firm. 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.
Hey bud thanks for the video I picked up one of these racks the other day because you did such a well video on it and you know it's really nice really made well I have all the confidence in the world in it and it was easy to put together thank you for your video I believe it's the best rack out there for the money
If there's a better "how to" video out there, I haven't seen it. Very well done sir.
All I had to do was read some of the comments after watching your video. They said it all, GREAT direction, nothing but very good direction plus great tips on possible mistakes. Excellent video and audio quality. I'm SOLD!!! Thanks brother
Glad you enjoyed it!
My Hollywood Rack should arrive today - Can't wait to explore !!
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.
I have a ford f-250 with add a leaf on rear little higher than normal as your truck,what 4 “ lower hitch adapter did you purchase
Does it feel secure
Major thank you… i’ve watched thousands of videos on TH-cam and this is the first time I’ve ever commented because it was so helpful.
Glad it helped!
Nice job on the video - just ordered a RAD Rover 5 & Rover Step-thru so your video convinced me on this rack - thanks
Glad the info was helpful!
Great video and commentary. I just got mine in today and if there were any concerns about the general robustness of the rack, they will be instantly dispersed when you lift the box.
Nice review! Showing the anti-wobble feature really differentiates this from any other racks that I’ve seen.
Glad it was helpful!
I have two Rad Runners and your video helped me make a decision on buying this rack, thank you!
Glad I could help!
I"M gonna get one of those. We just got two Lectric eBikes and if not for this Video I would have never known about the top tube cross bard needed to hold the bikes down. Thank You
I ordered the 2021 version HR 1500 rack for the back of our RV. This is a very good video with a thorough and detailed explanation. Well done. Thank you!🤟
How heavy are your bikes
@@tomferris1477 One is around 80lbs and the other around 65lbs.
What a great review! No fluff and tons of information, both about the rack but also how to use it. You’ve sold me on it and I will be using your referral link.
Glad it was helpful!
Nice video! Thanks for explaining the benefits along with why that is the case well!
Glad it was helpful!
This was an excellent review. I have just purchased one for my Rad Rover 6 Plus Step-Thru (and the adapter bar) - cannot wait to take my ebike adventures further! Your video is a great primer to prepare for using mine. thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks so much for this vid. It is EXACTLY the information I’ve been looking for.
Absolutely perfect video that I was looking for. Thank you for providing it!
Thanks for your video. Very well done especially for a novice like me. 👍👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
Great vid. Watched it all. I’m buying this rack this weekend. I’m ready
Saw this video just before my Hollywood Mount arrived. Whas very helpful. Thank you!
Great to hear!
Very well done. I’m convinced and purchasing using your link.
Looks like a very good rack I like the fact that it has a tensioner.
Very well done , we just started carrying these at our local bike shop!
Great video. I recently bought that very rack... I wish I had seen this beforehand.
That was a fantastic review & that’s an amazing bike rack system. Thank you
Thank you kindly!
Great video with lots of useful information. I especially liked that you showed how to load the bikes. We bought the same rack and you have really helped us. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Great explanation and demonstration
Wonderful tutorial! Thank you so much, well done...
Great video
I have that rack
Very expensive but a sturdy rack for ebikes.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the report!
Well I just ordered the rack and will pick it up Wednesday along with to of the crossbars. Pretty sure it will work with my spare on the sprinter the tire is up pretty high. Got my Rad 6 plus and waiting for the Rad mini step through version 2. Great video. THANKS
Let me know how well it works with the spare.
@@TheTechofTech I will
The rack is Hollywood Racks Sport Rider for Electric Bikes HR-1500-2” Hitch Rack, 2 Bike. Seems to be sold out everywhere. 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.
great video...im purchasing this rack to use with my ebikes...thanks for making this awesome video.
Glad it was helpful!
Great Review. I wish I had seen this review before I purchased my rack. My rack has many of the same options but many that it does not. Its really a mountain bike rack!
Do be certain that your rack is rated at each position for the weight of your bikes.
Great video Sir! I followed your instructions and safely transported my ebikes on a 400 mile trip.
Nice!
Excellent presentation.
This one’s on my short list for sure. Just need to know, if you feel this rack meets or exceeds your anti-theft expectations for your mounted bikes.
Thanks.
thank you so much, this video was very, very helpfu.
Ohhh my God this video was so helpful in so many ways, I was dreading how I was going to pick these two heavy ebikes up on that rack! I have the same bikes only my folding bike is not step threw. Now I can impress my wife when she see how easy they'll load.( I might tell her I say your video, ..after a few months lol )
Glad I could help!
I bought the rack based on your helpful video. Thaks a bunch.
Glad you found the info helpful!
Awesome review. You pointed out things not thought of.
*I was expecting a lot of shortcuts to be taken at this price. I was wrong. Decent quality **Latest.Bike** raker . Easy on easy off.*
Have been very impressed with this rack. Great video
Thanks for watching!
Excellent presentation of the rack
Thank you!
$15 piece of 36 inch Angle iron cut to 17 inches each from Home Depot inserted inside the square tubing on both ends made my Hollywood rack able to handle any ebike with ease.
Great job! Thank you!
I was like I know that voice!. Great video as always Twang. I'm also getting back into cycling and been looking for a rack also.👍
Yep! This is my tech channel, where I’m focusing my efforts for now.
Great video, Hollywood Rack should use this for their website.
Great video… I bought one because of your video. Love the rack.
TY !!!! Excellent Video. Very very helpful!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Best video on the internet about this rack!
Thank you so much!
Very nicely done video. Thank you.
Awesome review. You pointed out good things.
Very informative video. Thank you.
In the very first sentence, he was speaking directly to me 🤣
Nice review Twang, didn’t know you had an evoke channel. Subscribed.
I’ve been making videos for this channel for just over two years, and this is where I’m focusing my efforts for now. Thanks for sticking around.
I wonder what happened to you over at T&B. Glad to see you around
Very well done. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great job. I just ordered a RadRover 6+ Step Through. I was trying to see if I could just toss it in the back of my SUV and I ran across this. We have the exact same Lexus, yours is also a 2005 I think, same color and all....small world...I don't suppose you've tried to put RR6 into your beast? I'll probably end up getting that hitch though, it looks rock solid. Anyway, you do great work, keep it up, my sister lives on Oak Island, so we may pass each other one day. Have a great one. Mike
Very well done! Do you happen to know, I have a RAD City ST for my wife but I ride a very light road bike with very narrow wheels. Should I be considering narrow wheel hubs for my bike, if so who sells them to fit a Hollywood Sport Rider rack?
Great system, lived the review 👍👍
Glad you liked it!
Super well done video as always. I just ordered one. And I just received my Aventon Aventure ebike that you also highly recommended. Great job!!!
Great to hear!
my aventure (large) enroute 13th FedEx delivery my wifes step thru aventure arrived last week will this rack hold 2 bikes?????
@@MDFRfiredriver Yes it will but you will need the top tube adapter for the step thru. I have the Yakima one and it works perfectly.
@@MDFRfiredriver According to Hollywood, this rack holds up to two bikes at 80 lbs each.
An Aventon Aventure is approx 65 lbs with the battery removed. Always remove the battery as it can be lethal to any following car should it fall out!
I trust your AR vids, so I’m going to give this rack a shot. Thanks for the great review!
Really useful video. Thank-you.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. One of the only ones that explain how to work with the clamp downs.
Most of the other’s say install them on the post before loading the bikes which makes it so difficult to work with.
By adding them after the bike is loaded makes it so easy.
Thank you!!
Glad it helped!
Thanks so much.
Thanks for this video 👍
0:48 Given that Force = mass * acceleration, and the acceleration is coming from turning, bumps on the road, etc., wouldn't the force just be proportional to the mass, not the mass squared ? In any case, your point about the necessity of having a good sturdy rack for ebikes is still perfectly valid.
Shred, I got a C in calculus but I figured out how to beef up my Hollywood Rack.
$15 piece of angle iron cut to 17 inches each and inserted into each end of the square tubing doubled the thickness of the wall on two sides.
You seem pretty smart with math. If my 2 bike rack was rated for 80 lbs for each bike what is the rating now inserting angle iron onto the square tubing?
Logically, if two sides of the square tubing doubled in thickness I would guess it went from 80 lbs to 120 lbs per bike but there is probably a mathematical equation that will tell me how much more weight I can add to my Hollywood 2 bike rack.
Note: I had to grind a little off the long edges of the angle iron to make it a snug fit. I also painted the angle iron after inserting it. If I was to do it over I would have painted it before inserting.
The best part you can’t see the angle iron and the added weight is not that noticeable.
Great job on the video
Enjoy the video looks sturdy enough to put behind a camper, wondering if you have any experience or anyone out there using this behind the camper with the added stress on it
100% *not* rated for camper or trailer use. Hollywood is very clear on that, and they make other racks for that purpose.
I have a RAD fat tire bike just like the big one in your video, and I also have two Trek narrow tire eBikes. Does this rack work well for narrow tired eBikes also?
I just installed an 8” drop down adapter that goes between the receiver and the rack
It seems you have the later version of rack? As the ones sold currently (2023) in Australia don't have the improvements over the series of versions Hollywood have made.
Can you open your trunk if the bikes aren’t on, but the rack is still mounted? Or do you need to completely remove the rack for trunk access
Excellent video Thank You
Glad it was helpful!
what about the tilt down feature?
Great how-to video. I have a Hollywood rack but never saw it used that way. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
I need additional help with the folding up and down of the rack- which of the pins am I removing?
Good video. Picked one up the other day. What's the best way to store the rack when not in use?
I use a heavy duty hook and hang it from basically the ceiling in my garage.
Are there any ramps that can be mounted to make loading and unloading easier?
Holly wood now makes a rack with a ramp
@@mtnride4930 Do you have a link for that ramp rack, I can't seem to find it on their website
I talked to them last week and the ramp only works with the new bike rack they have, so you would have to buy a whole new rack. I was bummed thought it would work with mine.
Great infomercials
There is only 1 problem
By law license plate cannot be block for view of a police officer
I suggest to remind people to move license plate only when transporting biked
Otherwise all was great info
I purchased it for my 2 fat tire Ebikes
Thanks
Can you do the long pause thing on the intro again “and that’s what’s coming up next....... on the tech of tech” that was my favorite
Ha! Yes, that is a trademark of TWANGnBANG videos, for sure.
There are drop receivers to lower the rack height by a foot with taller vehicles.
What drop pitch would you recommend to hold this rack?
I have a 1999 Ford F250 super duty with an ad leaf in the rear so my hitch is 2 feet from the ground
Any idea how much the charger draws ? Thinking of using a inverter to plug charger in while driving on trips.
It’s around 100W 120V.
I'm pretty sure this would also work well with mountain bikes?
