Yakima FullBack 3 Premium Trunk Bike Rack, Holds 3 Bikes, Tool-Free Installation, SuperCush ZipStrips, Foldable Arms, SKS Locks, Bottle Opener

For many years, I used my MegaJoe Elite 3 to carry 1-2 bikes. I am short and have smaller bikes and this old model was too wide for my bike frames. The support arms sat too far apart and I had to angle my bike in an awkward way to get it to fit without a top tube. Since I angled it awkwardly, I would only be able to fit 2 bikes on it and the other bike could not sit awkwardly but had to sit perfectly straight. Also, the old bike rack made it sit too close to my trunk and would allow the front wheels to hit if I put the bike on the closest rack to the trunk, so I wouldn’t use that one. Well, after many years, the twisting mechanism stopped turning and now it’s jammed in a position that isn’t meant for my car and useless. I contacted Yakima and they gave me a 40% coupon, but even with the coupon, it was more expensive than here on Amazon. So I bought it here instead. This new bike rack fits beautifully and looks luxurious! I love that you can put the arms down when they’re not in use (unlike my old rack). It comes with numbers on the twisting mechanical that allow you to look up the fitment instructions on Yakima’s website. For my 2018 accord, I had to leave the top hooks on the inside of the trunk. Definitely read the instructions on that. The support arms are more narrow on this model vs my old one, I now no longer have to angle my bike awkwardly. I will attach the old one vs the new bike rack. I didn’t fully strap down the handles as they should but this was just for me to test before going in a bike ride the following day. Downside is that it is so heavy. It took me about an hour to figure out how to first put it on. I honestly struggled more just because of how heavy it was. So for the first time, an extra set of hands can help you.

We bought this bike rack for our car, and we love it! Our family has used it several times already, and it’s been such a help. We really like that it’s not a permanent fixture it attaches easily and securely, and holds all our bikes without shaking or shifting. It feels sturdy and high quality, and we can get it on the car in about 15 minutes. The only thing to note is that we can’t open the trunk while it’s on, but that’s not a big deal for us since we usually just head to the park and back. But so far the value of this bike rack for the money you spent as good and it has not damaged our car which is brand new so we’re very happy about that. Overall, it’s super convenient and perfect for trips. I’d definitely recommend it!

Bought this rack because my truck was in the shop and we had already scheduled a mountain biking trip. I went with the more beefy 3 bike rack because my girlfriend has an E bike. Had to use a seat bar on both bikes because of the head tube angle which was fine. They seemed nice and secure but after returning from our trip I found my bike (not an ebike) off the "cradle" and the rachet strap pulled partially out of the holder. I am pretty sure I had it tight because I was wary of their design when I first mounted the bikes. Maybe I'm wrong but either way these seem VERY flimsy for such a beefy rack. And once a strap pulls out of the holder it really needs to be replaced because it's plastic (see pics) You can order replacements for fairly cheap but I would almost recommend using fabric strap and just wrapping it around the head tube for more stability. I'll give it 4 stars simply because the rack is not rated for any one bike weighing over 30? Lbs (can't remember exactly but I know the ebike is far over the rating). But it wasn't even the ebike that had the issue.

Bought a used one on Amazon. The box was trashed but the rack was in great shape. A few scuffs and a little dirty but no biggie. I use it for my Alfa Romeo Tonale and Dodge Hornet RT. They don’t have a tow hitch so I was limited to only a handful of options. My bike is a 45lbs e mountain bike and the 35lbs max per bike I think is underrated. No issues. This rack performs much better than the Saris and Bell I bought prior and returned. This one is heavy duty. The Bell’s quality was much lower and the bikes moved around a lot. Plus the straps kept loosening up. The Saris quality is excellent but the curved angle to load the bikes on my suv was impossible to lift. It’s probably better for a sedan. This Yakima is perfect so far, and I went on the highway over 70 today. The Bell that I had on for about two months I’d never take over 50 and avoided highways. I also like how this 3 bike rack is more spread out than the Bell. I can keep the bikes separated more. I also like how this rack can be adjusted upright. It’s really easy to adjust the height level.

I will preface this by saying this bike rack is not meant for beach cruisers, especially women's. That being said, there didn't seem to be ANY bike racks for beach cruisers that fit on a car without a tow hitch, so I made this purchase. After a considerable amount of time spent trying to find the appropriate configuration of the straps for my Toyota Highlander (which I mostly blame myself for, not their website, it was actually pretty obvious once I found it), and some slight apprehension about my car's spoiler due to some reviews about damage to spoilers, I followed the steps in the instructions provided and within about 10-15 minutes on my first try had it securely installed. It feels very sturdy, did not damage my car at all, and did carry two women's beach cruisers (though they have to be strapped in at weird angles) such that we did not worry at all about them on the drive. I think as long as you find the right configuration for your vehicle and pay attention to the steps and pictures re installation, there's really not much room for error. I am very happy with this purchase and look forward to getting my bikes to the beach much more frequently!

Bike rack is of good quality and is sturdy once installed. But if you have to use the “anchor” method, it is a nightmare to install by yourself. Also, using the anchor method you cannot open your hatch while the rack is installed. Also, the rack dented my hatch in two spots where the bottom of the rack rests on the hatch despite having the big rubber grommets/pads. I used it once and will 100% return this rack. Very disappointed in the fact that it damaged my car. Car is a 2018 Mazda CX-5. Kicking myself for not just getting a hitch and hitch rack. No rack should damage your car after one use. Rack was installed to their specific specs and measurements.

I love this bike rack and don't think it's too much of a hassle to put on. Granted there are two of us, but it really isn't a big deal. The bikes are SECURE if you put the rack on correctly. They aren't moving. I'm very satisfied with it and it is very well made

This is a very heavy and sturdy bike rack. It is hard to put on a hatchback. On the other hand it supports the bikes very well.

Very sturdy bike rack. Fits on both my minivan and my sedan. This rack works great for adult size bikes; my 12 year old’s bike also fits on it, but the bikes for our younger kids don’t fit without any additional accessories (maybe the “tube top” part would help). A good option for vehicles that don’t have a hitch for hitch-style bikes racks.

Passt tip top!

Sits firmly on car, easy to adjust

This bike rack was very good quality. Unfortunately I didn’t take accurate measures and could not use it. Seller was excellent about returning it. No hassles, no fuss. Much appreciated!!

No complaints, fits well on my Ioniq. Fast delivery
