Himal Outdoors Tailgate Pad for Trucks, 62" Wide — Padded Weather-Resistant Cover Holds Up to 7 Bikes

Himal Outdoors Tailgate Pad is a padded, weather-resistant cover that protects your truck’s tailgate and secures up to seven mountain bikes for safe shuttle runs.

Designed for riders who shuttle and those who want to avoid tailgate dings, this heavy-duty pad combines a tough exterior with a soft inner face to protect both paint and bike finishes. It installs in seconds, leaves access to the tailgate handle and backup camera, and adds tool storage so you can bring the essentials on every ride.

How does this tailgate pad protect my truck and bikes?

The pad sandwiches your bikes against a cushioned 3/4" foam core and a soft flannel underside to prevent scratches and impact damage. An abrasion-resistant PVC outer layer repels road grime and light moisture, extending the life of both the pad and your truck’s finish.

• 3/4" foam core reduces shock and pressure points
• Ultra-soft flannelette interior protects paint and bike frames
• 600D PVC outer layer resists scuffs and weathering
• Heavy-duty cover and reinforced stitching increase durability

Will it actually fit my truck and let me use the tailgate features?

The 62" width is made to suit most compact and mid-size pickup tailgates and secures with wraparound cinch straps for a snug fit. A rear access window and a tailgate-handle flap allow use of the handle and, in many installations, the backup camera without removing the pad.

• 62" wide profile for compact and mid-size trucks
• Two wraparound straps and heavy web cinch straps for stable mounting
• Rear open window preserves backup camera visibility when unobstructed
• Handle access flap lets you open the tailgate while the pad is in place

How many bikes can it carry and how are they secured?

The Himal Outdoors pad is designed to hold up to seven bikes using integrated Velcro straps that bundle forks or wheels against the pad. Those straps and the soft interior keep bikes spaced and reduce collision between frames during transport.

• Holds up to seven bicycles depending on bike size and arrangement
• Velcro securing straps fasten each bike to the pad to prevent shifting
• Saves bed space by carrying bikes on the tailgate instead of inside
• Reinforced stitching on cinch straps improves load stability

What useful extras are included for everyday use?

Practical touches make this pad more than just protection: two lockable tool pockets keep small items dry and secure, and the heavy-duty materials stand up to repeated loading and trail grime. The pad’s design balances convenience with ruggedness for frequent riders.

• Two tool pockets with flip covers and zippers to prevent loss and water entry
• Secondary reinforcement on straps for long-term reliability
• Quick on/off installation for fast shuttle stops and weekend trips
• Compact storage when not in use, keeping your truck bed free

Who is this for: The Himal Outdoors Tailgate Pad is aimed at mountain bikers and outdoor enthusiasts who shuttle regularly, riders with compact to mid-size trucks who want to maximize bed space, and anyone seeking a durable, easy-to-install solution to protect both bikes and vehicle paint during transport. It’s a practical upgrade for weekend warriors and trail leaders who need quick, reliable bike transport without sacrificing tailgate functionality.
