Description

Title: YAKIMA, Gatekeeper Tailgate Pad to Transport Bikes

The GateKeeper tailgate pad is a perfect companion for pickup bed bike transport. The durable nylon exterior protects your bike from your truck's tailgate while the soft felt backing keeps your truck's paint protected. Its hook-and-loop cradle closure system secures bikes and protects their frames. The GateKeeper is easy to install and fits most mid-size to full-size trucks.

  • An easy-to-use tailgate pad that lets you safely carry up to 5 or 6 bikes on your full-sized pickup bed; Weighs just 6 lbs (Medium) or 8 lbs (Large)
  • The hook-and-loop cradle closure system is easy on carbon bike frames and painted surfaces, helping prevent dings and scratches
  • An integrated strap management system keeps the pad tight and secure on rough roads so you can adventure without worry
  • Rugged nylon outer material resists abrasion and weather damage, going the distance season after season; Extra soft felt backing protects your truck's paint job
  • Easy to install and fits mid-size to some older full-size trucks; Simply hang it on your tailgate, line it up and thread the straps
  • How should it be stored when not in use? How small does this fold up for storage? It does not fold up, except the fold over the tailgate...we have it stored up on a shelf in our garage...

    Will this also hold BMX bikes? Yes for sure. It holds my kids bikes (a 16” and a 20”).

    Will this pad fit a 2019 Jeep Gladiator? So I just received mine and I have a 2021 gladiator and it does not fit. It covers back up camera even with the flap open and the sides are like 1 inch too wide. All that said I may just cut the sides down and keep it since this is really the only option I’ve found thus far fit gladiator. Also factory toanno cover will not shut with this on.

    Can anyone tell me the actual width of this? I have an 02 Sport trac and the tailgate is only 51-52 inches wide. Thanks The width of the Yakima Gatekeeper Tailgate Pad is 52".
