DAKINE  Pickup Pad

The Dakine pickup pad fit on my Ford Ranger (6 foot bed) tailgate pretty well. I just used it to transport two bikes on the highway last weekend and nothing seemed to get moved around or dislodged too much! The only thing is that the loops do not match the grooves on my bed, so the bikes will tilt slowly over time. If you have more than one, you can lean it so the rear tires will pyramid next to one another. So works just fine! I have a tonneau cover so I knew ahead of time that I have to use that or the Dakine at a given time, so just a heads up.

Great buy exactly what I was looking for can’t wait to set up five bikes on it two for now .

Purchased this for transporting 3 electric bicycles. Once installed and centered across the tailgate there was approximately 1/2" gap on both sides with this large sized Dakine pad. It's well padded. Despite the extended lip of the Ram tailgates, there was no issue with fit. There were enough straps to hold six bicycles. The velcro straps were sturdy and held down my two 80-pound bikes, no problem.

I bought this almost 1 year ago, the material has faded and worn a little but it's still in great shape and still holds my bike securely. There were times when I would keep it on for weeks at a time, even kept it on for a few months one of those times. It's been through rain, heat, and freezing weather, the material is still in great shape, no tears or stitching coming apart at all yet. Still a good idea to take it off when not in use, the outer part is very good at repelling water but condensation can form underneath it overnight. Those 3 small elastic bands it comes with are to bundle up the excess straps after it's put on, I lost one but a ziptie works just fine as a replacement. I go biking almost every day of the week, I'm expecting much more use out of this before it needs to be replaced.

I was getting tired of removing my front wheel and installing my bike onto my fork mounts every day so I decided to get this pad. Definitely makes life easier! Just note that the access flap does not line up with a 3rd generation Toyota Tacoma’s tailgate handle and backup camera.

I had the medium when I had a mid sized truck and it works so well I bought the large for my full size. It he's the bikes very stable, is easy to put in and off, and the micro fiber lining keeps my truck clean and scratch free! It's also incredibly well priced. I used my Medium a lot for a couple seasons and it had no visible wear. I highly recommend this pad.

The small fits my Chevy Colorado perfectly. Easy to install and works perfect!

Fits great on Toyota Tacoma. Keeps bikes in place.

Fits ok on my 2015 silverado. The opening for the handle doesn't exactly line up but i can still reach in and open it. Also the straps which hold the bike could use a little more hook and loop material on them. Overall it does its job as a tailgate pad to hold my bikes but just a couple of minor items as mentioned.

Fits well on Honda Ridgeline, while protecting the truck.
