The Yakima HoldUp EVO is a premium, tray-style bike rack that lets you carry 2 bikes using your vehicle's hitch. This rack is specifically designed to carry bikes with big tires and wide handlebars, but it will carry just about any bike, including those with wheels from 20" to 29", carbon frames, disc brakes, thru axles, or full suspensions. You can quickly tilt or fold the rack with the KickStart foot pedal and easy-access tilt handle, saving time when accessing gear or loading bikes. The locking SpeedKnob makes installation and removal of the rack a painless process.
Wheel-Mount Design for Easy Bike Loading
The HoldUp EVO is easy to load, even if your bikes have monster wheels. The deep, contoured front wheel cradles accommodate just about any wheel out there, and the pivoting arms with StrongArm technology ensure that your bikes are held firmly in place.
To load a bike, simply place your front wheel in the holder, rotate the pivoting arm up and over the wheel, and press down firmly on the ratcheting hook. To release the hook, simply press the built-in gray button and slide the hook up and off your wheel.
Large rear wheel holders allow the HoldUp EVO to accommodate a wide variety of bike wheelbases. These wheel holders pivot front to back, adjusting automatically to your wheel size - no need for sliding and tightening. Secure the wheels in place with the ratcheting straps built into each holder.
Mounting bikes by the wheels helps prevent any scratches or scuffs to the paint. The ratcheting hooks are padded, however, so they won't mark your wheels. And the pivot mechanisms in the arms are overbuilt to ensure they keep functioning smoothly over a lifetime of hard use.
Fully Adjustability Bike Trays
The wheel trays on the HoldUp EVO are fully adjustable to ensure that you have all the space you need when mounting bikes with mammoth handlebars, such as a 29er. To adjust a wheel tray, loosen the 4 bolts where the tray attaches to the rack base and slide the tray left or right to achieve the desired spacing. Retighten the bolts and you're ready to roll with optimum handlebar clearance and no fear of bike-to-bike contact during transport.
Complete Security for Bikes and Rack
The HoldUp EVO has a cable lock built into the end of each pivoting arm. These cables loop through your bike frames and attach to posts on the bike rack arms to secure your bikes in place. The cables store in the arms when not in use.
The SpeedKnob makes the installation process fast and easy. Once you have the hitch pin in place, simply turn the knob to secure the rack within your hitch receiver. As you tighten the knob it activates the anti-rattle wedge within the rack's shank to reduce noise and movement of the rack while mounted. It also has a built-in SKS lock to keep the rack anchored in place so you won't need to fumble around with a hitch lock.
The cable locks and SpeedKnob include keyed-alike Same Key System (SKS) lock cores. These cores can be swapped out to make all your Yakima products keyed alike.
Tilting Design and Compact Storage
When you're ready to hit the road, the spring-loaded KickStart foot pedal at the base or the rack allows you to quickly position it for loading bikes. Simply step down on the pedal and lower the rack into position.
A spring-loaded lever conveniently located behind the bike trays tilts the rack down, while fully loaded, so you can gain access to your vehicle's rear cargo area without having to unload your bikes.
When you are ready to store the rack, use the same lever to easily fold the rack up against the rear of your vehicle. First rotate the front wheel holders inward and tilt the rear wheel holders inward, then rotate the pivot arms down and use the ratcheting hooks to secure the arms to the rear wheel holders. Once the arms are in place, pull back on the lever and fold the rack up against your vehicle.

I purchased this rack after extensive research and have been using it regularly for several months. I am very pleased with this purchase as it has provided exactly what I was looking for in a bike rack. The reasons I purchased this rack (in no particular order) were: price, features, and that it could carry a bike weighing as much as 50lbs (needed for an e-bike). etrailer's web site info is excellent and helpful as were the staff when I had a question. The rack is heavy (but needs to be for what it is designed to do), so taking it on and off the car requires the ability to carry and maneuver a bulky and cumbersome object. Getting bikes on and off this rack could not be easier. Be sure to take it easy driving over bumps because I did shake a bike loose from the rack once; that experience is consistent with info on the e-trailer web site. Other than that the bikes ride very securely, including at highway speeds.

Purchased with Draw-tite 24763 (Class I, 1 1/4 in hitch receiver) for installation to a 2011 Honda Civic sedan.
The online assistant (Mckenzie ?) was very helpful in walking me through some questions which I had prior to placing an order.
One of the reasons why I selected etrailer for this transaction is the experience which the organization can claim regarding various combinations of hitch receivers and bicycle racks.
I was well-pleased with the online assistance prior to purchase.
Assembly was straightforward and easy.

Travelled cross country last year with this bike rack. Last winter during our trip back from Florida one one the vertical support arms snapped off at the base. Since Yakima has a one year warranty we were able to get a replacement part free. eEtrailer helped by providing a purchase receipt. We haul mountain bikes. A plus for etrailer customer support but I have my concerns for the long term use on this EVO rack for durability. My last Yakima bike rack lasted over 20 years.
by: BigCal4507/18/2018
Overall very impressed with quality of the bike rack. The only issue I have is with my long wheel base Fat bike. It wants to rock out of the front tire cradle because the back tire is past the rack and the weight of the bike pushes it rearward. To solve it I have to bungee the rear tire to the bike rack frame pulling it to the front. You can see the green bungee in my picture. This does not happen with my wife’s bike.
This is mounted on a 2016 Yukon. With the rack tipped pack you can lift the gate about 3/4 of the way to access the rear area.
Etrailer shipped super fast.
by: William06/04/2018
I assembled and installed the rack at a leisurely pace. It took a little while to get the spine bolt properly aligned, but once I got past that the rest of the installation went quickly. I’m guessing it was about half an hour from start to finish and a good bit of that was unpacking the rack and all its hardware. Mounting my beach cruiser was easy. I road-tested everything and I’m very happy with this purchase. The advice I got from Kyle at etrailer was excellent and follow up has been great.
by: jTfromCO08/23/2018
Reasonably quick delivery from etrailer, no issues there.
The rack arrived in decent shape (boxes weren't destroyed), and assembly of the 2-place rack and the add-on only took ~1 hour.
I am somewhat concerned that the cross-bars where you attach the trays that hold the bicycles are welded to the underside of the rack. Seems it would be much stronger if it were welded on top. I'm hoping the 4 bolts that hold these on will hold up over time - I had my last bike rack for 20+ years, we'll see if these can go the distance.

Solid rack, not terrible to assemble & easy to use
by: Jonathan G07/27/2023
Exactly what I was looking for. Yakima EVO rack appears to be durable/well built, rack was easy an install into my 2” hitch and holds my MTB (LG, 2.5” tires) and road bike (58cm, 30” tires) securely. I’ve used eTrailer for a few items over the years and I’ve always had a good experience with communication, shipments, and reasonable pricing. Additionally, I appreciate the linked install/instruction videos included with your products.

After one year of use on my Tesla Y, I still love the Yakima HoldUp EVO Bike Rack. I don't have an EVO bike, but a guy can dream, and I don't want to have to buy another rack in the future if that dream comes true. It's sturdy as all get-out and holds our bikes tight and a secure, like a teenager holds his prom-date's hand. I love that it tilts to let me access the rear hatch as opposed to having to break the rear window for access like I used to have to do with my old rack. The security cables could be a tad longer and you have to get clever about tucking them out of the way while loading your bike, but they're still a nice feature. Thankfully, Yakima lets you purchase matching locks for all their gear, so I now have a single key for my roof rack, kayak rack, bike rack, house, and car. The only drawback to the bike rack is that it has the weight and density of a black hole, but on the plus side, if you take it off or put it on your car, you can skip the gym for the week. I highly recommend it.

Product came in a timely manner. Instructions were clear and it took me about an hour to assemble and install, not counting getting out of the packaging. All parts were there.

Fast shipping easy to put together. Nice and tight in hitch 2". Loaded bikes on rack and fit with no problems 1 full suspension 29" tires and 1 with 26" wheels no problem adjusting rack. have not used yet will update after a couple of trips.

Have yet to install but wanted to comment on the great customer service. Initially was sent the wrong item. When I contacted the seller they immediately responded by sending the correct hitch and a prepaid return label. Additional, they lived up to their competitive price policy and gave me credit when I found the same item at a lower price.
Fantastic customer service.
Check back later for hitch review.
by: Paul07/29/2018
The products are good, ordering the parts were easy but the packaging was a little rough. I purchased a bike rack and two bearing buddy bras that they stuffed inside the rack box, need less to say they were crushed in shipping. The bra's are soft plastic and are still okay to use but the packing was wasted.
by: Linnea08/12/2023
Easy to install, holds my bikes well and I love I can get lift the back hatch with the bikes on.
by: Anna 07/10/2022
I have had this rack for 1 year and love it! It's extremely sturdy and my bikes are very stable when driving even over rough terrain. This is my second Yakima bike rack and have been very pleased with the brand. Yakima racks are easy to install, tighten and lock. I live in CA and George was very helpful when I purchased this rack - he provided me with shipping/delivery updates and made sure I was happy with my purchase.
by: Glenn 07/06/2022
Very Stable rack. Wide range of bike sizes fit easily. Ability to drop rack and open SUV hatch is great. I like being able to mount either 2 or 4 bike mounts on the hitch, but the rack is extremely heavy when using all 4 mounts.
by: Jim C11/15/2019
The Yakima EVO rack works great. It holds the bikes securely and is easy to load and unload. The rack is well built and a little on the heavy side. (very sturdy) The rack is easy to install and remove from my car, but I have not decided on a good way to store the rack when it is not in use. I have used the rack on several long trips at interstate speeds and the rack and bikes are very secure with no bouncing or swaying.
by: Alex07/26/2018
I received the Yakima bike rack just yesterday so have not used it yet. I will be using the rack for a Giant eBike and a Trek roadbike. Everything in my dealings with etrailer was very smooth. I even received the shipment a day early. Brendan was very professional and good to work with. I would recommend etrailer for your bike rack needs.

- Recommended Trailer Hitch for 2019 Mini Countryman to Carry Bike RackIt is true! There are actually a pair of trailer hitches that will fit your 2019 Mini Countryman, the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11522 and the EcoHitch Hidden Trailer Hitch # 306-X7387, so long as your '19 Countryman is not the John Cooper Works model. Of the two I recommend the EcoHitch because it has a 2 inch receiver which means it is going to be compatible with many more styles of bike racks than the 1-1/4 inch Class I Curt hitch. Additionally, you will only be able to use a Class I bike...
view full answer... - Will RockyMounts BackStage Swing-Away Work On a 2016 Hyundai SonataIn order to install a bike rack on a 2016 Hyundai Sonata you'd need to start with a trailer hitch, the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C11402 which has a class I rating and 1-1/4" receiver tube opening. The class I rating and 1-1/4" receiver tube opening is important because that is how you are going to determine the compatibility of a bike rack. The RockyMounts BackStage part # RKY10002 won't work as it requires a class III rating and 2" receiver tube opening so instead I recommend...
view full answer... - Is the Thule T2 Pro XTRO Compatible with the Draw-Tite # DT73RR for a 2021 Subaru Outback Wagon?Yes, the Kuat NV 2.0 # BA22B has 6-5/8 inches from the center of the pinhole to the closest part of the rack when folded up. With that measurement, it will be close, but you do have 5/8 inches past your rear bumper if you are using the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch - 2" # DT73RR.
view full answer... - Availability of Adapter for Yakima HoldUp EVO 1-1/4" to fit 2" HitchIn order to use the Yakima HoldUp EVO 2 Bike Rack for 1-1/4" Hitches # Y02480 with a 2" trailer hitch receiver you will actually need to swap out the current tongue with part # 8880826. The HoldUp doesn't have provisions for an adapter like some other bike racks do so this is the only safe way to get it to fit. If you were to use any other kind of adapter then that would void the warranty on your bike rack per Yakima.
view full answer... - Using Yakima HoldUp EVO for 1-1/4” Hitches on a 2” Hitch ReceiverI definitely have some options so that you can use your Yakima Hold-Up EVO Bike rack # Y02480, but the reason Yakima does not recommend using an adapter with this bike rack is because most hitch adapters reduce the weight capacity of your hitch by half. An example of that is this Curt Hitch Adapter # C45770 that not only makes your hitch smaller to fit 1-1/4" accessories, but it also extends out by 4" if you need extra length for clearance issues. The drawback is your weight capacity is...
view full answer... - Is the Yakima HoldUp EVO Bike Carrier Compatible with Yakima SKS Lock CoresYes. The Yakima HoldUp EVO # Y02480 is compatible with Yakima SKS Lock Cores. This rack does come with a locking hitch pin and cable lock that can be swapped out to match your other Yakima products If you don't already have Yakima lock cores, the 2-lock kit is part # Y07202, the 4 lock kit is part # Y07204, the 6 lock kit is part # Y07206 and the 8 lock kit is part # Y07208. All SKS lock kits include the control key for core installation as well as the lock-specific keys to fit the cores.
view full answer... - Can the Yakima HoldUp EVO be Used with Class I Trailer Hitch on a 2013 Chevy CruzeThe Yakima HoldUp EVO # Y02480 is an excellent bike rack that I believe you'd be happy with but I do have to say that it is 50 lbs. When I looked up the online version of the owner's manual for your 2013 Chevy Cruze it stated that the max trailer weight for your vehicle is 1,000 lbs and that the max tongue weight is 10% of that (100 lbs). So even if you're using the Curt Trailer Hitch # C11282 which has a 200 lb tongue weight rating, you are limited to the 100 lbs. If your bikes don't weigh...

- Do You Have a Replacement Tongue For a Yakima Dr. Tray Bike Rack # 8002474? The replacement tongue for your Yakima Dr.Tray Bike Rack 8002474 is no longer available from Yakima and the Tongue # 8880826 you found is for the Yakima HoldUp EVO Bike Rack # Y02480. While they do appear similar the parts are not interchangeable. The HoldUp will make for a good replacement rack for your Dr. Tray if you are unable to find the tongue used or in a retailers leftover inventory.

The Yakima HoldUp EVO # Y02480 is compatible with any 1-1/4 hitch receiver (Class I and II), like the Curt # C11555 and Draw-Tite # 36520. If the hitch on your 2013 Honda CR-V is a factory hitch, as long as it's not recessed more than 9 inches behind the bumper ( which is unlikely), it will fit without a problem. Because the HoldUp EVO secures your bikes by the wheels, the frame of your bikes won't make a difference, so it can easily accommodate bikes with step through or...

One of which is that the Curt has brackets which angle in a bit more, which means a slightly shorter tube so less is going to show. The Curt also has a collar around the receiver and the Draw-Tite does not. This is going to give it an added layer of protection the...

We do have bike racks designed specifically designed for fat tire e-bikes though that would be a much better solution. For a platform rack that fits on 1-1/4" receivers and can also carry fat tire e-bikes that have fenders, I recommend using the Saris Freedom 2...

view full answer... - Platform Bike Rack that Can be Used In Hitch of Flat Towed VehicleThis is a really great question that I had at one point as well. So when I asked the bike rack manufacturers why some racks can't be used in a flat towed vehicle and they told me that when a vehicle is being flat towed it has a very slight back and forth sway as the steering seeks to center itself. This sway causes a bit of stress on bike racks so you'd need a bike rack that is reinforced for that like the Yakima HoldUp EVO 2 bike rack part # Y02480 which is similar to the Saris you mentioned....

If you need help let me know the model of rack you have. Some bike racks are rated to be used behind a towed vehicle or trailer but not all. There's more movement the further back you get whether it be on the back of a motorhome, trailer, or towed vehicle. This causes more stress on a hitch mounted bike rack and many of the racks are not tested for the...

This isn't abnormal, as some vehicles like your VW Jetta just require that the hitch receiver sit a bit lower to the ground because of the rear design and frame space available for mounting the hitch. There are things you can do to offset this, such as getting a bike rack that features a rise in its shank (which your Yakima HoldUp EVO...

With that said it is your rack and your bikes so I cannot stop you from using an Adapter # HTAD to carry the rack. Currently we do not have any RV rated bike racks that fit a 1-1/4" receiver without using an adapter. We do offer the Swagman Traveler XC2 Bike Rack # S64663 which will attach...

This hitch will fit the 530i and 530i xDrive (as well as 540i and 540i xDrive) but keep in mind it does not fit the Gran Turismo models.

This is an excellent 1-bike rack that can support up to 5" tires, but it does have a weight capacity of 60 pounds. You could see if removing the battery drops the RadRover's weight enough to put it under this limit, otherwise your other options would be a 2-bike rack or use a small trailer or a different vehicle that's able to utilize a larger 2" trailer hitch.

It will be very similar to the Crosstrek videos I've attached regarding clearance space for your reference.

The Yakima HoldUp EVO Bike Rack item # Y02480 only fits a class II 1-1/4" hitch. Since your car is a 2012 with a class I hitch it most likely has a weld stop in place that will prevent you from using this bike rack, or any other class II one, no matter how light your bikes are. Instead, I recommend the Kuat Transfer V2 Bike Rack item # KU74FR. This is a similar wheel mount...

A year later, after regular use of this rack, the above summary of my experience holds. Ive been very pleased with this rack.
