Strength and Style Merge with Hollywood Racks’ New CrossTrack Bike Rack


We haven't heard much from family-owned, Los Angeles-based, Hollywood Racks since last October. That's when they celebrated 50 years in the industry. Now, they've launched their new hitch-mounted CrossTrack Bike Rack. The rack is available for one or two bikes and 1.25″ and 2″ receivers. It also has frameless touchpoints and additional accessories.

We're excited to bring the CrossTrack and suite of accessories to the world, given the high demand from our valued customers and retailer network," said Evan Nusbaum, chief executive officer at Hollywood Racks. "This is the only product in our catalog that refrains from any bicycle frame contact while maintaining maximum stability. It's a testament to the research, development, and testing that went into creating a product like this while keeping our promise of simple, strong, and secure."

The CrossTrack can handle many bike types, whether road, gravel, or mountain bikes. It can accommodate tires up to 4″ wide and a max wheelbase of 52″. The weight limit is 66 lbs per tray, so some of the heaviest eBikes may not play well.

The rack is designed to minimize bike-to-bike interference when the bikes are in the trays. It appears to accomplish this with front tire wheel stops that better stagger the bikes and provide excellent front wheel stability.

Like some other of these types of racks, there is a push button to release the arms that usually has to be held down as you're moving the arm back. Then you can ratchet it closed without touching the button. There's also a front handle pull mechanism in the middle to tilt the rack up or down.
