Video Transcript for Review of Yakima - Hitch Bike Racks - Y8890177
Today we're going to take a quick look at the replacement cradle set for Yakima Double Down Hitch Mounted Bike Carriers. Now this is going to fit several different versions of the Yakima Double Down, including the Double Down Two, the four, and both of the fives. It's also going to work for the Double Down Ace Two, the Ace Four, and also the Highlight Two and Three in both the silver and white versions.This is going to give you your cradle that goes on the top tube and down tube. It'll be able to fit in there. It is going to be two separate pieces that just match up and go over one of the arms on your bike rack. Then we'll have our second cradle to go on the opposite arm so that we can have both our cradles spanning across our bike rack so we can mount up our bike and hit the trails without any worries about our bike bouncing off.We'll also have this smaller piece.
It's going to go with this smaller cradle, just fits in between those two pieces there. We'll also have our three straps, two for the top, two for the down tube, or one for the down tube to act as our anti-sway cradle. That's going to be this portion here on that larger cradle. This is going to wrap around the down tube of your bike and hold it secure in that cradle.Again, we also are going to get all those pieces for our different Yakima bike racks. If you have any other replacement needs for your Yakima bike rack, we have a lot of options here at Etrailer.com, including our replacement for the hitch adapter, mounting hardware, and a replacement shank along with other parts so if you have any other replacement needs, definitely check out Etrailer.com to find whatever you need.That's going to do it for our look at the replacement cradle set for Yakima Double Down Hitch mounted Bike Carrier..

I originally ordered a different brand but when it became apparent they weren’t in stock and would not arrive in time for our vacation, Nick helped me change my order to the Yakima cradles and made sure they were shipped out the next day. Nick was extremely helpful and even gave me his personal phone # to call in case I had any problems. The cradles fit my old X-port rack perfectly , I had used hose clamps to prevent the original cradles from sliding around on the rack but the Yakima cradles seem to lock in place (I kept the hose clamps on just for extra security)

Works as expected. No problems.

E-trailer seems to have all the small, random items that I need for my bike rack, hitches and gear. I ordered some important, and not easy to find tools, and they were at my doorstep in two days! Just in time for my trip! You seem to have everything I need!
by: Warren 07/31/2023
My favorite rack is new again. Fast service and an easy to navigate website.
by: John05/22/2023
Other than the long delay in arrival the order items were as expected.
by: John08/23/2022
The set only comes with 3 straps and 4 are needed. It is a Yakima replacement part so the quality is fine. I just don’t understand why they would short you 1 strap.

quick and easy. got back on the road thanks to you!
by: Sherri M10/15/2016
While the product didn't fit my bike rack as I had hoped the customer service was above and beyond any I have experienced. I received an immediate confirmation after placing my order on a Sunday evening. I also received multiple (not an overbearing number) emails providing me with status updates. We were able to retrofit the cradles to my bike rack and the product was of high quality but their customer service was EXCELLENT!

It was exactly way I needed. Perfect.

Great replacement parts for my Yakima bike rack.
Service and delivery time was fantastic and I received my order earlier than expected. I will certainly order from etrailer.com again.

Good quality. Used as a replacement for XPort Slipstream Dual Reciever Bike rack with 1.25 inch bike rack support tubes.

Etrailer processing of my order was impressive.Bike cradle for Yakima rack came as advertised. Description video was very helpful.
by: Jonathan05/03/2019
Fits perfectly, just like original equipment, can’t wait to use it tomorrow when we leave for vacation. Don’t go cheap on products for your bike rack. Always protect your investment. Will use etrailer.com again!!

Exactly what I needed when I couldn’t find the part anyplace else although I did have to call Yakima directly to get the correct part number.

- DoubleDown Replacement Cradles Y8890177 on Non-Yakima Bike RackAccording to Yakima, the replacement cradle set fits bike rack bars up to 1-1/4 inch diameter.
view full answer... - Yakima DoubleDown Bike Rack Replacement Anti Sway CradlesWe have the replacement cradles that you are looking for. They are the Replacement Cradle Set for Yakima DoubleDown Hitch Mounted Bike Carriers, item # Y8890177, and you will receive all the parts needed to secure one bike on the Yakima DoubleDown 4 Bike Carrier, item # Y02424.
view full answer... - What Size Diameter Tubes Does the Replacement Cradle Set Y8890177 Fit?The Replacement Cradle Set # Y8890177 works with tubes 1-1/4" in diameter, so this will work on your Yakima rack that you've specified has 1-1/4" tubes. For reference, it's likely that you have a Yakima DoubleDown rack similar to the DoubleDown 4, which has 1-1/4" diameter tubes (it also comes in 2 bike or 5 bike configurations).
view full answer... - Replacement Anti-Sway Cradle For a Yakima DoubleDown Bike RackWe do have the correct replacement option, but the Replacement SuperCush Anti-Sway Cradle and ZipStrips # 8880598 are not the correct option to fit the Yakima DoubleDown. The correct replacement cradle option is the Replacement Anti-Sway Cradle for Yakima DoubleDown # Y8890177.
view full answer... - Replacement Cradle Assembly for Yakima DoubleDown Ace Bike RacksThe Replacement SuperCush Anti-Sway Cradle # 8880598 is not a confirmed fit for the Yakima DoubleDown Ace bike racks but we do have the replacement that fits. It is # Y8890177 and is one complete cradle assembly.
view full answer... - Are there Replacement Cradles Available for the Yakima BuckHorn 4I am happy to inform you that we still have replacement cradles for the Yakima BuckHorn 4. It is the Replacement Cradle Set for Yakima DoubleDown Hitch Mounted Bike Carriers, part # Y8890177. These were made for the DoubleDown and HighLite bike racks, but it will work for the BuckHorn as well. I've linked to a video review of this below.
view full answer... - What Replacement Cradles Do I Need for My Yakima KingPin 4 Bike Rack?I have a great solution for you. I confirmed with my contact at Yakima that the Replacement Cradle for Yakima HangOut or KingJoe Trunk Mounted Bike Rack - Qty 1 # Y8890153 will not fit your Yakima Kingpin 4. However, Yakima did confirm that the Replacement Cradle Set for Yakima DoubleDown Hitch Mounted Bike Carriers # Y8890177 is the correct replacements you need.
view full answer... - Question About a ProductI believe we have just what you need for your Yakima DoubleDown 4 Bike Rack # Y02424 (NLA): - The Replacement Cradle Set for Yakima DoubleDown, HighLite, and KingPin Hitch Mounted Bike Carriers # Y8890177. This will replace the full cradle for securing one bike, plus three rubber straps.
view full answer... - Replacement Cradles for the Yakima RidgebackI have a solution for you, but the Replacement Cradle Set for Yakima DoubleDown Hitch Mounted Bike Carriers # Y8890177 is only designed to work with hanging racks with 1-1/4" diameter arm tubes; the Yakima Ridgeback # Y02458 has 1-1/8" arms. The replacement cradles that fit the Yakima Ridgeback are the Replacement SuperCush Cradles # 8880597 which are the original ratcheting style cradles that came with the Yakima Ridgeback models produced after 2016. If you have an older model Ridgeback,...
view full answer... - Bike Rack Cradles Compatible with 1 Inch Diameter BarI reached out to my tech contact at Yakima and all their bike rack bars that the cradles fit on are 1-1/4 inches so the cradle # Y8890177 will not work with a 1 inch diameter bar. The good news is if you have a Yakima rack, this will fit. On the flip side, if you want 1 inch diameter compatible cradles we do have one! For 1 inch diameter bars I recommend the Replacement Anti-Sway Cradle and Standard Cradle for Hollywood Racks Bike Carrier with 1" Arms # HR745AS. I've attached a video...
view full answer... - What Diameter Frame Cradles Does Thule Apex XT Bike Rack UseThe arms of the Thule Apex XT 4 part # TH9025XT are 1-1/4 inch in diameter. Yakima's replacement frame cradles like part # Y8890177 are designed to fit this size so these would if you were wanting to go with a more standard cradle setup that uses rubber straps instead.
view full answer... - Availability Of Replacement Hitch Lock For Yakima BuckHorn Bike RackI have another option for you, but the Replacement Cable Lock # 8880572 you were looking at is only confirmed to fit the Yakima Fullback bike racks. Instead I recommend the Yakima HitchLock for Yakima Hitch Mounted Bike Racks # Y07235 which is confirmed to fit the Yakima BuckHorn Elite Bike Racks. This is the only version of the BuckHorn bike racks that has a replacement lock available. For the other component it sounds like you are asking about a replacement cradle. If that is the case...
view full answer... - What is the Diameter of the Yakima Ridgeback Top Tube Diameter?The Yakima Replacement SuperCush Anti-Sway Cradle and ZipStrips # 8880598 that you mentioned, work with 1-1/8 inch arms, such as the Yakima RidgeBack # Y02458. If you have an Inno rack with arms that measure 1-1/8 inch then they could potentially work for you. There are also replacements for 1 inch arms from Hollywood Racks # HR740-P and 1-1/4 inch arms from Yakima # Y8890177.
view full answer... - Are There Replacement Cradles for a Yakima DoubleDown?The Replacement SuperCush Cradle, # 8880597, will not work with a Yakima DoubleDown, because the SuperCush works with 1-1/8" diameter rack arms. The DoubleDown uses replacements that are 1-1/4", such as # Y8890177. There are replacement cradles from other manufacturers that also fit arms up to 1-1/4" such as the Hollywood # HR750-P, but for the best fit for the rack, I recommend using Yakima replacements on your Yakima rack. If the cradles are becoming too difficult to work with, you could...

A year later and I am still happy with my purchase. We used the rack with the new cradles and straps extensively during our vacation and have continued using them on a regular basis over the last year. Even during this Coronavirus pandemic the hitch is on our car to use when we need to get out for some fresh air. This is not my 1st purchase from etrailer and I have always been satisfied with the products and service.
