Hello everyone! My name is Jamal and I am a car enthusiast/photographer. I post mostly videos of my Corvette/CTS-V and occasionally some other shenanigans. Check out the parts and gear I use: www.amazon.com/shop/jamalsgarage
5:04 is that bolt or nut getting stripped? I see metal savings coming out as you turn.

Really good camera work. I have a Gen2 2014, but I'm guessing Gen3 is very similar. My sunroof doesn't open at all. Bought the car used. I can live without it, but like you, I'd like it working. Thx for clear viewing and explanations. Far better than my wobbly videos. Still watching... so sorry you had that pin problem and of course it's a great bit of info you've shared. Thank you for pioneering this one. I just got done with a total sound system replacement including wiring, so I'm not anxious to get into this yet, but grateful to you for doing the video.

Hey Jamal! I’m Jamel! Is the rack still holding up? Good video. I would like to get one. Thanks Brother.
@JamalsGarage5 күн бұрын
Hi Jamel! Yes, it's been great! The anti-wobble mechanism is annoying to take on and off especially when it's hot as heck outside, but other than that, no complaints. Took it on a 3 hour road trip, going 100+ mph at some points, and it was solid

Good video, but if you;re taking your rack on and off very often, it seems like the tools-free install of the QuikR Mach2 rack might make the added cost worth the money. All depends on your priority I guess. In any case, thanks for posting the interesting review.

Interesting, but wow that is a lot of movement and flex vs 1Up. Like others have said, we have 3 1 Up Racks and 4 flush mounts over the bed of the truck so we can tow our camper with ease. You can get a single 1 up for under 400. Customer service if needed from 1up is second to none.

Dude, what's with all the smoke out the back near the top of the runs? Running too rich?
@JamalsGarageАй бұрын
If I remember correctly, it's because I didn't use thread sealer on the head bolts. The new ported heads had larger chambers that the bolts just barely passed through and oil was getting by them. Put thread sealer and a catch can on it when I got home, and it's much better now

I think if you buy a Thule bike transporter, you will have way more satisfaction with it. Last also for ever and you have absolutely no srews to play with. Its a investment for live. This system looks way to flimsy and there is also no clamp in the middle to secure with a lock.
@TheLeesto2 ай бұрын
Nice! 1UP is so overrated anyway. the aluminum shanks shear, hence why no RV compatability with even their most "heavy duty" racks. Kuat still uses steel which are RV rated. If you're just buying aluminum anyway Rhino Bilt looks like a good option.

What is your time, experience, mental ease worth? At this stage of my life I've learned that if something is not intuitive and easy to use every time, the newness and excitement wears off after about 8 uses and then I get over-annoyed with the pain points of the product and wish I had saved for the premium unit. Buy once, cry once. Just my perspective.

Thanks for the informative video. Nice to know of a less expensive option similar to 1Up. I think there are pluses and minuses compared to the 1Up in terms of design and materials regardless of price. As for stuff like the knockoff of innovation, country of origin etc., well those can be considerations left to the individual.
@nokia68002 ай бұрын
It looks like a nice quality rack but the thing that would keep me from ever buying it is the lock / anti-rattle system. It's just too much of a hassle to put on and remove. I have an inno rack that cost about the same but has a built-in lock/anti-rattle system.
@teckademic332 ай бұрын
would like to see a wobble test where you drive around and even go over some speed bumps to see how much play there is on the rack since that’s what did it for me on why I purchased a 1up

Most hitch mount bike racks are just fine. I'd rather put the $250 savings into the bike like a fork, wheelset or drivetrain. A generic One-Up rack for half price can't be beat.

I got one of these and works great. Only downfall is the chrome bolts tend to rust. I also have a Saris and Rhode gear and my brother has the Quikrstuff (sp?) and he was pretty impressed as well. Oh. Actually the other complaint is the reflector decal fades fairly quickly. Also, for less play. Make sure all nuts and bolts are tight. Also, it looks like you got the XL (fat tire version?). I have the normal one and seems to have less play side to side, maybe it is because the wheel arms are more narrow? My 2.8 tires still work fine.
