Description

When it comes to carrying around your prized 2-wheelers, always bet on Yakima. Now, with the introduction of their DoubleDown Bike Rack, you don’t need a massive bankroll to equip your ride with Yakima. More Monte Carlo than Atlantic City, the DoubleDown deals up premium quality at nickel-slot rates.

At the heart of your Yakima DoubleDown Bike Rack is the standard SwitchBlade cradle technology. These anti-sway seats for your bikes stop shifting and rubbing while you drive. What’s more, you can pull the TriggerFinger to fold the arms down flush when you’re not hauling cycles. For quick access to your cargo, the DoubleDown also tilts forward.

And, the Yakima DoubleDown offers more options than a craps table. You can go with a 2-bike, 4-bike or 5-bike model depending on how many bicycles you need to carry. The RocSteady hitch tongue licks sway and fits into both 1 1/4" and 2” receivers. Yakima also built a bottle opener into your DoubleDown, and backs it with a Lifetime Warranty.

We received the bike rack quicker than anticipated.  The box was a heavy duty simple to open quality box.  The rack was equally if not more so heavy duty rack that was easy to put on and very sturdy.  We have never had this type of rack before, so we can't compare to others, but first appearance indicates this is just what we need to be able to safely transport our bikes.  Just for the ease of mind, I would have preferred additional straps, they allow three for each bike, but the straps provided appear to be very sturdy and I am sure they will be fine.  The drop down allows easy entrance to my Chev. TrailBlazer cargo area.  Overall, I am very happy with the product.  I would order this again.  Oh, I also ordered the locking set, which is a no brainer for someone who wants to keep the stand and bikes secured.  Very well put together, and a very thoughtful product.

Easy to install and use.  The taller the vehicle, the higher the bikes must be lifted to fit.  Easy to drop to open the hatch on the Rogue.  Some question over time if the rubber ties will stay strong and not crack.

This rack is great.  It is solid and is easily installed.  It doesn't rattle or make any sort of noise while the vehicle is under way and it folds down well enough out of the way to allow for easy access to the rear of the vehicle when stopped.  I'll be putting bicycles on it for a trip for the first time this weekend.  I expect no problems.

A very well made bike rack.  Tight for 4 bikes but doable. Straps are very versatile for odd frame bikes but a little tough to get used getting on and off hook attachments.

The Yakima bike rack is easy to install, very well built, and sturdy while driving. The cost was about $20 less than in a local sports center. We have no regrets buying this product.

I drive a Hyundai Azera 4 door sedan and worried that this rack plus the hitch would be too low to the ground. No problem. U-haul installed the hitch and helped me put the rack on. the adjustable sleeve worked well with a 1 and1/4 inch hitch.
    The only criticism I have is that you have to purchase the lock for an extra 40 dollars. the same key that locks the rack to the hitch also locks the lock. I guess I would just want the hitch locked. The cable is short on the lock they provide. 
  The rack is solid, easy to use and very stable. You will need an extra strap to wrap the bikes to the hitch as the bikes can wobble front to back... 
    Auto Anything delivered in a timely maner. I recommend them and this rack to anyone with a sedan.

This was well worth the purchase. Fairly easy to install. Sure wish it just would have included the hitch and rack locks of which I had to go out and purchase. I would have paid a little more if it was included. It's well constructed.

Rack is easy to assemble.  Designed very well for easy installation and use. A modification of the horizontal piece coming out of the hitch to curve upward immediately would be helpful for sedans where ground clearance is low. My double down will scrape backing out of any ordinary driveway and also forward unless leaving at a diagonal. Still think it is a great product especially for higher vehicles.

Overall Good value and easy to install.  Bought the 5 bike version and this securely holds all 5 bikes.  
Negative is the smaller kids bikes (<24")are tough to get on over the support brackets.  Also had to buy a lock for the rack seperately (paid $30 @ REI).
