Yakima 8002771 StepUp Bike Rack 2"

The Yakima StepUp 2” platform hitch bike rack offers a durable, high-capacity, frame-free hauling solution designed for heavy E-bikes, fat-tire bikes, and mountain bikes. Its compact design, coupled with staggered tray heights and easy, tool-free installation, ensures maximum stability and ground clearance for two bicycles.

Features:

• Two bike capacity easily accommodates heavy electric bikes (e-bikes), fat-tire setups, mountain, road, and BMX models.
• Front-wheel clamping arms grip the rubber tire directly to prevent abrasive frame rub and protect delicate carbon finishes.
• Staggered elevation architecture minimizes handlebar overlap between bikes and boosts rear-end ground clearance over steep inclines.
• Convenient lever-activated tilt drops down for immediate trunk or tailgate entry and folds upright when driving empty.
• Internal anti-wobble mechanism expands within the hitch receiver for shake-free hitch mount rack stability.
• Rack easily secured to hitch with included Allen key that stores on the rack when not in use.
• Side-to-side tray adjustability lets you customize lateral spacing to entirely prevent pedal scrapes and component collision.
• Loading ramp compatibility supports V-shaped tire channels for effortless roll-on wheel placement and clean storage (sold separately).
• Integrated anti-theft security includes a frame-securing cable and vehicle receiver pin with matching locks for both.
• Built in cable loop offers an easy way to attach your own additional cable lock for extra bike security.
• Integrated bottle opener supplies a handy, built-in beverage tool right on the main steel support beam.
