I checked with Yakima and the Yakima RidgeBack 4-Bike Rack # Y02458 that you referenced has a 150 lb total capacity with a max of 40 lbs per bike cradle. I attached a review video for you to check out also.
If you plan on carrying any womens or alternative framed bikes without horizontal top tubes you may also be interested in purchasing a Swagman Easy-Out Women's and Alternative Frame Bike Adapter # 64005 to provide a horizontal top tube on your bikes to provide an attachment point. I attached a review video for this product also. This will allow the bikes to be carried more level and will provide more ground clearance.
