It is great but it is also heavy. With the weight of 3 bikes and the rack itself, it is too heavy to one of my SUV. Other than that, it is very good build. If I only have one bike, the build in lock is not working too well. Need to check with Yakima to understand how it works correctly.

Superb fit on my Subaru Crosstrek 18! The rack is very sturdy and solid, although one might think its pretty heavy (I expected it to be lighter) It comes with installation packet, however it looked more confusing then helpful. Their exact fit website link only provided information on Subaru Impreza and not the Crosstrek, which is a completely different installation process, even though two cars are somewhat similar. (On Impreza, bottom of the rack sits on the trunk above license plate, on a Crosstrek it has to sit on the bottom below the license plate) Anyway, with the help of the internet I was able to figure it out. Overall I give this rack 5 out of 5, it's sturdy, durable, doesn't wobble and my heavy mountain bike is very secure on the road. I chose halfback over ... MoreSuperb fit on my Subaru Crosstrek 18!

I chose halfback over fullback, because I honestly couldn't figure out what was the difference between the two, other than the price?! Thanks Yakima, another great product!

This saved me about $1000 US. Well worth every penny. So easy to put on and take off it seems like a steal at the price I got it for.Great for transporting two bikes to and fro. Such a novel idea seemed like it would not work.So not the case.

The Yakima Halfback is perfect for my needs! I feel extremely confidant driving with unsayable don my 2014 Ford Escape with 2 heavy bikes. I no longer have to drive “white knuckled” on the highway or continually looking out the rear view mirror. I would highly recommend as I feel it is well worth the money. Great price from Jenson too, they beat every other online retailer price and shipping was the lowest at $10!!
Although it's only for two bikes or 70 lbs. this carrier looks like it could hold much more. I feel very confident putting my very expensive bikes on this well made equipment. Doesn't scratch my car or my bikes. A great investment.
We LOVE this bike rack! My daughter unpacked it immediately and we loaded up bikes to Yosemite for the weekend. The kids road around and all over the campsite while I climbed. Incredibly well-engineered piece of gear. I bought the trunk rack to keep the car profile small for city living. Super easy to bring in and out. Far more solid than I imagined. I had no idea how nice it would be. We have the Security Strap for additional safety and security. Bikes are completely secure. Zero movement while we drive. We are planning more biking destination trips now. Perfect for getting the family away from screens and into the outdoors! Don't know how we lived without this!
This rack is fairly easy to install, and after practicing a couple of times, fairly easy to use. My concern is that an additional part is required for “ladies” bikes or bikes with a slanted crossbar. This leveling bar or as Yakima calls it, tube top, is not included with the rack nor is it listed as a must have when ordering online. So be forewarned fellow slanted crossbar bike owners and order the “missing link”.
Very solid, very heavy. Fit our 2021 Mazda CX 30 perfectly. No problems transporting bikes over semi-tough terrain. Box states 2x SKS keys included, but they were not included. Not sure what they were for. Overall, very satisfied with purchase and shipping (although there was a big tear/hole on side of box- no damage). Would highly recommend!
I want to start out by saying this is one of the few bike racks, non-hitch, that I could fine for a 2020 Toyota Highlander. Once you carefully read the instructions and understand the engineering, it’s easy. The unit is really solid, the construction is very good. The mounting system is good and fairly easy. Overall I’m pleased with the rack. The one not so great thing that happened was the box arrived slightly beat up. I would expect for an item like this to be shipped inside of another box and not just the manufacturers box alone. The item was completely fine and everything was inside the box that was supposed to be.
When I bought my 2019 Honda CRV my existing bike rack from my 2014 CRV did not fit, even though according to the manufacturer's website it would. I did not want to purchase a hitch or tray design bike rack, and searched the web for a trunk style that would fit. No company had one that would fit my car except Yakima...... and what a rack they had. This rack is amazingly designed, beefy but not too heavy to manage, bikes are added easily, are secured well, and it carries two bikes without being cramped. I could not be happier.
