Description

4 Bikes, Hitch mounted

The Yakima BackRoad 4 Four Bike Hitch Mounted Carrier is your go-to solution for stress-free bike transportation, whether you're embarking on a family road trip or a weekend getaway. Featuring 7" spacing between bikes, it makes loading and unloading a breeze.

The soft cradle pads ensure a snug and protected fit for your bikes, while the fully removable ZipStrips simplify the loading process. With side-to-side cradle rotation, the BackRoad accommodates a variety of bike sizes and shapes, while the anti-sway cradles eliminate bike-to-bike contact during transit.

For added convenience, the mast tilts down to provide easy access to your vehicle's hatch. Integrated SKS locking cable provides security and peace of mind while you're on the road. Arms fold down when not in use, and the integrated Yakima bottle opener adds a touch of practicality for post-ride refreshments. With a maximum weight capacity of 17kg per bike, the BackRoad fits 1.25" (32mm) and 2" (50mm) hitch receivers and can carry up to 4 bikes. For non-conventional bike frames, the available TubeTop™ (sold separately) is required.
