I just recently bought a hangover 4 new from Yakima and I really like the adjustable mast feature and the new straps that really secure the fork to the rack. At the tallest position of the mast, I can keep it completely vertical with my Jeep Grand Cherokee with an XL 29inch bike that has a 160mm of suspension without being nervous of getting any contact between the bike and my car.The complaint: When the mast is in the tallest position, there is some play where it telescopes with our without a bike on it which makes a bit of noise. I'm going to try to put an old bike tube around the mast to make it a bit quieter but that was a minor oversight.Also the footswitch is great, but there is also a bit of play there and it being metal on metal, also creates some noise.

I even bought a hitch clamp because I thought the hitch tightener was loose (it wasn't and it's very well made.)One more thing that could improve this rack would be switching the bolt used to adjust the height of the mast from a bolt that you need tools for to a pin of some kind so that it would be easy to lower when you don't have bikes on it. But if it was too easy, a thief could easily take the whole upper part of the mast (which is what the bikes lock onto) so I suppose that would be out of the question. All in all, the rack does what it should and I have had no problems with bike movement at high speed, just remember to lock your front wheel in place on long trips so you don't put a couple hundred miles on your wheel bearings from the wind spinning it!

So I bought the hangover 4 because we have an SUV and a truck. 95% of the time its on the truck due to having more space and being able to put our luggage in the back. This trip we used my mother-in-lawssuv and one bike was taken. The rack works well for short distance, but just got back from a road trip and let me tell you I was worried the whole way. It was a bit windy coming and going but not enough to move the bike the way it was. The bike was moving from side to side, you can here the crank slamming against the middle tube. To me it was unsafe, I was worried that the top straps would end up giving out or the bottom strap would break on how much it would move. Luckily I only took my bike and not the rest of my family because they would off all been damaged from ... MoreSo I bought the hangover 4 because we have an SUV and a truck. 95% of the time its on the truck due to having more space and being able to put our luggage in the back.

Works as it should. My one compliant is the straps that go over the bike forks are about three inches too short. I have to fight with the straps to get them to go over and lock in. No one else in my family has the strength to stretch them. Wish I would have bought a different product. Brother-in-law has a LoLo and loves it. Should have paid a little more to get a nicer rack
Cutting right to the chase...The good:+ Holds the significant weight of 4 or 6 bikes close to the hitch, instead of multiplying the weight by leveraging it way out behind the vehicle. This is better on the vehicle's shocks, the hitch itself, and results in better handling.+ Easy to install and set up.+ The tilt-away mechanism works great.+ Bikes seem very secure, even at highway speeds and on rough roads.+ The hangover 4 holds the bikes narrowly enough that most vehicles' brake lights are not obscured.+ A small plastic cap piece got broke during shipping, and a couple of the Y-straps broke because I stretched them too hard, but Yakima's customer service is stellar and they readily mailed me the replacement parts I needed at no cost.+ Handles a mix of bike ... MoreCutting right to the chase...The good:+ Holds the significant weight of 4 or 6 bikes close to the hitch, instead of multiplying the weight by leveraging it way out behind the vehicle.

Just watch for this after you've loaded the bikes and rearrange as needed.- With the rack full of heavy bikes, tilting the rack (away or towards the vehicle) can be a struggle.- I wish they offered an optional cradle accessory that would accept the bike's handlebars (instead of fork crown) so that road bikes could be carried.
For Xl frames with 29 2.5 wheels: Rack is too snug and top bar is too short for bigger bikes. If top bar could raise 2” it’d be in the sweet spot. To accommodate added a lift/extender.Pro- more space between rack and trunk so trunk can open with bikes on the rack.Con- weight is further from vehicle creating some dragging. Other considerations - need to shore up suspension now that we can accommodate a bike for each passenger. For use: Shore up with bungie chords for piece of mind as fork tie downs are stretched on last notch. Ingenuity will help accomodate other bike/ fork types. Pro tip: use the frame, bungie the front tire, keep the turn angle. All said it still beats multiple vehicles for same outcome.
The Yakima Hangover 4 is a sturdy and very solid (30kg) vertical bike carrier at a good price point that achieves its objective. It's relatively simple to put together, but make you you have the strength to carry it as its awkward and also lift bikes onto it. My concerns about this unit that have now been resolved after some headaches include: (1) the top bar was not included in the box (a quality control issue). This delayed assembly until a replacement arrived. (2) the length of the towbar tube on the rack is too long for my 2020 Ford Ranger OEM towbar receiver resulting in the pin hole not lining up. After looking and trialling all manner of hitch extenders etc, I had a metal work company cut 17mm off the tube. The rack now fits directly into the tow-hitch ... MoreThe Yakima Hangover 4 is a sturdy and very solid (30kg) vertical bike carrier at a good price point that achieves its objective.

This bike rack actually works very well for managing up to 4 bikes when traveling on even/flat surfaces in a RAV4 (2021 or older) with a rear mounted hitch. Unfortunately, the mountable hitch location on the tab 4 means that this bike rack only has about 8.5-9” of ground clearance on a flat road. I measured my Trek-Marlin-8 on the rack in the slanted position (required for carrying bikes on a hatchback vehicle) and the trail bike had a ground clearance of only 8”. If you have an even longer bike (from head tube to the back of the bottom tire) you’ll have even less clearance so driving up angled surfaces/sloped roads from a flat position might bottom out and jam up your rear tires.
I have tried several different tray style carriers, but now that we are transporting more than two bikes I wanted something that didn't extend so far behind the vehicle. This Yakima rack works for both our Tacoma (open bed) and FJ Cruiser (with and without Backswing adapter). There are three bolt holes to set the length of the mast. If you want to run the mast fully vertical on the FJ with no hitch extender, it must be in the highest position. My limiting factor is a Trek Slash, which has 29" wheels and a 160mm fork, so the highest position is needed to keep the tire off the back of the FJ. With the Backswing adapter, I can run the mast in the second highest position because the adapter adds a little height, but also moves everything rearward a bit.In the highest ... MoreI have tried several different tray style carriers, but now that we are transporting more than two bikes I wanted something that didn't extend so far behind the vehicle.

With the Backswing adapter, I can run the mast in the second highest position because the adapter adds a little height, but also moves everything rearward a bit.In the highest mast position (regarding mast length and vertical), it can be difficult to get a bike in the fork cradle. (keep in mind my FJ is also lifted, so the hitch is higher than normal as well). To make things easier, I will move the mast to the angled position, load the bikes, then push it to the vertical position for transport.Overall, this rack works for my needs very well, but may not be for everyone.
We received our bike rack very quickly from Pushys. It was very easy to put together & easy to store as it does not take up too much space. It is heavier than its counterpart. With assistance from my son I can still hook it up to the car no problem. Only complaint is that they dont provide a particular size spanner which you need. We had to buy this separately. Overall an AWESOME product.
