Race Face T2 Tailgate Pad Black, L/XL

I looked at several bike racks for my car but they were all expensive and labor intensive, or would have damaged the finish. So I started looking at options for my truck. I researched three or four types (again all expensive and/or labor intensive) before coming across this one. It appeared to be cost-effective, safe for the bikes, safe for the truck, and easy to install- almost too good to be true. Super glad I decided to take a chance on it!! It takes a few minutes to adjust it the first time, but from then on it only takes about five minutes to install/remove. It takes even less time to secure the bikes in the bed of the truck, and once they’re in place they don’t move. It was a perfect fit too, for my older F150. I couldn’t be happier. I live in a place with weather extremes, so I don’t leave it on all the time- but it’s so easy to take on and off that it really doesn’t matter. I just keep it in storage with the bikes until I need it. Highly recommend!!!!

This tailgate pad was highly recommended on YouTube reviews. Bought it to transport our new e-bikes and it protected my tailgate perfectly. Not one scratch. Looks like it was tailor made for my Toyota Tundra. It fit perfectly and it looked great. Great value for the money and it got the job done. It does what it was designed to do and does it well. If you're in the market for one of these definitely give this one a look.

Easy to use, and secure. Would buy again.

Fits great, looks nice, and easy to install.Would be better if there was more padding directly across the top of the tailgate where the bike frames rest. The pressure wants to wear through the fabric.

Built very well, 4 straps feed down and up to secure it on. Use needle nose pliers to help grab straps. I installed solo but if need 2 people can install easier. There is also 2 reinforced rings so you can run a cable and lock pad to truck. Size fits perfect for full-size install mine in F150. Appearance looks good I like the black. Price is good !

Not too thrilled w this product. First off, my gripes I don’t fault the product for. It does not fit my 2019 ram right. But none will. The tailgate has a weird lip. Its still useable.This is a premium product that is nearly double the cost of its competitors. To that end, I expect premium appointments. The straps that go under the tail gate are JUST long enough making it extra hard to install. Unacceptable.The Velcro straps that hold the bikes in don’t have hook and loop along the whole strap so I can never get the bikes tightly secured. I typically travel w multiple types of bikes. Full squish, kid bikes, fat bike, road bike. All size down tubes and it doesn’t work right. That strap is essential. At least on my truck w it’s odd tailgate shape. Stops bikes from falling over which happens often because I can secure that strap well. This is something I’d let go if not for the cost being double.The construction is otherwise ok. We shall see as I am pretty rough w it. The extra padding helps w my odd tailgate shape. I like the felty underside. I can still use my rear cam. Took out the insert immediately. Even w a bike it doesn’t hit.

Looks great! L/XL size fits well on my Tundra. On and off in a few minutes. I took some time getting it set, but now it’s off and on easy. I’ve only loaded three bikes at once, but had plenty of room for more if I get more friends. Soft on the inside so I’m not worried about my tailgate. Bikes ride comfortably and don’t move around. Velcro straps seem up to the task. Backup camera has plenty of visibility, and internal soft pieces (top and bottom of the cutout) move around to adjust for that. Some vignetting, but not annoying. Cheaper and easier than a rack that fits in the tow receiver. Looks cooler too.

Like the fact that this the only tailgate pad that fits any newer full size truck like Silverado, Ford and Dodge RAM. Six straps help to couture the pad to the odd shape of these new truck tailgates. The four main straps keep it more secured than the three straps found on some other pads. Grommets allow for securing the pad and bikes to the truck via (not included) chain or lanyard which I will be buying soon at the hardware store. The convertible/removable pads that allow for backup camera/tailgate handle access is a perfect solution to the problem. I am very happy with the material, fit and finish of this pad.
