Question:
Hello, I own the Yakima 4-bike full swing away carrier. Its difficult to use with smaller childrens bikes and also cramped with 4 bikes. Does anyone make a 4-bike platform style swing away carrier? Thanks

Expert Reply:
I am sorry Charles but there are no 4-bike platform bike racks that swing away like your Yakima FullSwing Bike Rack item # Y02465. However, I do have a solution. You can use the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # Y88TD and the Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks item # Y02483.
Unlike the Yakima HoldUp Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # Y02443-2, you were looking at, the Yakima StageTwo Bike Rack for 4 Bikes item # Y88TD has been approved to use Yakima's Backswing item # Y02483.
If you have any additional questions feel free to throw them into the comment box below and I'll be happy to answer them.
