Very sturdy, pin very hard to insert, my wife can’t insert it.
Except for problem with pin I would buy again. Very heavy not something to take off and on every time you ride, have to just leave it on the car all the time.



by:

Do not buy this rack!
The bikes barely
fit next to each other especially using on the only 1 upright bar.
This rack needs 2 upright bars!

The clamps to hold the bikes to the upright bar are to short causing the bikes to rest on each other. Even when bikes are opposite facing .
The ratchet clamp used to cinch down the clamps to the bike literal feel apart in my hand. I wasn't even tightening it yet.
Getting the bikes past each other and clamps is a nightmare!
Completely regret this very expensive purchase.
I chose this one because of the weight it could carry while using a 1 1/4 inch hitch.
DO NOT BUY



by:

There is only one issue with the On ramp LX: Overuse of blue locktite at the manufacturing plant on the screws that attach the tray extensions. The knobs to tighten the adjustable trays CANNOT BE TIGHTENED! I had to use thick fender washers to get the required 3NM of tension on the knobs that tighten the adjustable trays because I could not screw the darn things past all the blue threadlock!

I am glad it has been working well besides the screws. I do appreciate the feedback and that is something I will definitely pass along. Besides that how are you enjoying the On Ramp?



by:

Installed rack on my GMC truck to test out, was able to load my two electric bikes by myself, with two people would be much easier. Rack is very well constructed, yet easy to install on hitch. Will be doing road test in January, mounting on 5th wheel and going from New Jersey to Florida.



by:

It is very sturdy for holding our two E-bikes on our small motorhome. I like that the ramp breaks down and attaches to the rack vs having to store it. Also, the adjustment for the wheelbase, although it sometimes gets out of alignment.

The Yakima OnRamp LX Electric Bike Rack - 2” Hitch - Frame Mount is a quality made rack.



by:

Ordered the Yakima OnRamp LX to carry our 2 Electric bikes on the back of our Bronco Sport. It is a little complicated to get set up, (guys don't like to read directions - but that's what wives are for I guess) Once it was all put together though it worked great. Will be a good addition for our trips with the bike. Also wanted to give a big THANK YOU to the folks at Etrailer!! I had an assembly question and they were very helpful and answered it quickly. Looking forward to the ride.

@BrookeM We love to ride the old rail trails all over the southeast (so far) mainly in Virginia, West Virginian, Georgia and Florida. With the new e-biles and the Yakima XL ramp - we will be ready to go farther to check out new areas. Again our thanks - good price, quick delivery and a very responsive customer service.

I did like almost everything about this rack. I was shopping for a rack that would hold two e-bike and was approved for use on a bumper pull travel trailer. First the sales representative at eTrailer was excellent in verifying the mounting on out trailer. The order process was quick and smooth with no issues. My order was shipped the same day that it was ordered. I was shocked at how fast the carrier was delivered, two days after it was ordered. To put the carrier together was basically one bolt. The weight was not a problem to get into the receiver on our trailer. The next was to mount the bikes to the carrier itself. The Ramp worked well with the 70 pound e-bike. Adjusting the was a bit of an issue. With how the hold down straps are mounted you have to adjust the sliding rails to fit the wheel base of your bike. When I had both of my e-bike mounted correctly the wheel only had about an inch and a half of the trie on the rail it self. I have Searched for rail extenders but have not been able to find any. Looking at my photos you will see that they need to be about 4 to 5 inches longer. Once strapped in they are secure at least while the trailer is not moving. I plan to make some extensions for poly carbonate.



by:

I used all of etrailer's videos to help me decide on the best rack for my needs. This will work great for me because our bikes both have fenders and we will only be transporting the same two bikes. Plus it is strong enough for an RV and a cover which is important to us.

Product arrived promptly and in quality packaging. Assembly instructions were clear and concise. Put the Yakama rack together in about 20 minutes. I am very happy with the heavy duty construction of the rack. I have two Aventon Aventure 2 e-bikes that weigh over 70 lbs. The rack handles the load great.



by:

The ordering process, the delivery time and the product condition when it arrived were all wonderful. The assembly and installation of the bike rack ... and the accompanying light package ... wwas simple, well documented and successful. Overall ... an extremely satisfying experience.



by:

Mounted on Escalade, ramp is quite steep, tough for 80 pound bike and must be on level ground or ramp may not reach ground. Other than that the rack works well.



by:

Very solid and sturdy. Assembly straight forward. On fist trip now.



by:

I haven't had an opportunity to use my purchase as of yet, but working with etrailer merits the 5 star rating. I ordered my bike rack on Wednesday afternoon before Thanksgiving and it was delivered on Saturday. Fantastic turn around time. Couldn't ask for more than that.

Looks like it will work great!

The Yakima bike rack is fantastic. I enjoy the ramp to help load and unload the e-bikes. The Yakima brake and turn signal that I added help with traffic safety.

Very durable piece of equipment. Only had it for a few days but getting ready for a 2,000 mile road trip

Set up was a breeze. Light weight and bikes fit perfectly.

Easy to install and load bikes. Very sturdy and smooth operation

I'm very happy.

Most e bikes are up at 80lbs.
Yakima
has been in the game for a long time and this unit is built like a tank.
The unit is heavy, but it speaks for itself.
If you are traveling any distance this is the most stable unit I have owned.

Arrived damaged. Emailed Yakima for support several days ago but no response.

The rack was very simple to assemble and install on my 2023 Hyundi Palisade. The ramp makes it so much easier to load my Electra cruiser bike. I have ordered an electric bike from EBC, and I can't wait to try loading it. I will try to follow up when I get the new bike and use the rack some more.

Not so great. The center post on the Yakima on ramp lx just didn’t work out for our e-bikes. It was difficult getting the position just right to secure our 2 bikes and they ended up rubbing the paint where they contacted them. We ended up buying a new Kuat rack that secured the bikes using the tires and with no contact on the frames.we travel full time in our Rv and the bikes are jostled regularly. The Kuat was even more expensive than the Yakima but to us it is well worth it.

  • Which Anti-Rattle Clamp Is Best For Electric Bike Rack To Keep It Stable?
    Hey there Lisa, hope you're having a great day. So you actually brought up a really good question. The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar for 2" Hitch Receivers # e38FV uses a gate that comes down and makes contact with the shank of the bike rack or ball mount, and this will not interfere with the hitch pin that is included in some bike racks, such as with the Yakima OnRamp LX Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches # Y88DJ. The etrailer clamp will be more effective in stabilizing the...

    Hello Karla, Wow, that is a really nice e-bike! I do not blame you for wanting a ramp for your e-bike, just because you can lift your bike doesn't mean that you should. For your 2024 Aventon A-Level 2 step through Commuter E-bike I recommend the Yakima OnRamp LX Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes - 2" Hitches - Frame Mount # Y88DJ. What I really like about this rack is how the padded clamp is able to maneuver in all directions making it very easy to clamp onto the bike, it really is the reason...

  • Recommended 5th Bike Rack for Two Heavy E-Bikes That Has a Ramp
    Unfortunately, Hollywood Racks doesn't have a rack that has an integrated ramp that's also rated for 5th wheels. So instead, I recommend going with the Yakima OnRamp LX Bike Rack for 2 Electric Bikes # Y88DJ. This rack has an integrated loading ramp, a 80 lb per bike capacity for a total of 160 lbs, and will work great with 5th wheels.

  • E-Bike Rack for Jeep Wrangler that Allows Rear Door to Swing Out
    Hey Wayson, so our best option that covers everything you need is going be with the Yakima OnRamp bike rack part # Y88DJ and the pivoting hitch adapter part # Y02483. This will give you an e-bike rack that will clear the rear spare of your Wrangler and when swung out will allow you to open the rear door.

  • Can Yakima OnRamp be Used in Hitch of Flat Towed Vehicle

This has a simple bolt-on installation you can do yourself if you're feeling up to it. The hitch comes with instructions but we also have an installation video you can follow which I attached below. The installation can also be performed by us if you live near Wentzville, MO or by one of our local...

  • Can Yakima OnRamp be Used with Highlander and Truck Camper
    Hey Barbara, yes the Yakima OnRamp # Y88DJ can be used on both your camper and Highlander. It's a really great e-bike rack that is RV rated and if you wanted to add the swing away adapter you can too with the part # Y02483. It's not super hard to remove or install but it does have a bit of weight to it.

    Hi Rich; the Yakima BackSwing # Y02483 is not compatible with the Thule EasyFold XT # TH903202 or Epos # TH99XE. Both of these use an adapter to fit a 2" hitch and the BackSwing only works with a solid 2" shank. On the opposite side, Thule does not recommend using either of these bike racks with a swing away adapter. If you want to use the BackSwing I recommend using a different bike rack like the Yakima OnRamp LX # Y88DJ. This has a high capacity for e-bikes at 80 lbs per bike and has...

    Thanks for reaching out, Robert! I recommend pairing the Yakima OnRamp LX # Y88DJ with the Yakima BackSwing Swing Away Hitch Extender # Y02483 for your application. The OnRamp LX gives you the weight ratings you're needing, along with the adjustability to fit a wide variety of bike frame styles (including your RAD bikes). And then the BackSwing gives you the ability to swing the bike rack away from your vehicle while the bikes are still loaded up - giving you full access without having...

  • How to Get Wheel in Front Cradle of RockyMounts BackStage Bike Rack
    Hi Connie; you have to use the back stop on the RockyMounts BackStage # RKY10002. Lifting it up and over the cradle is the only way to get it on there. As long as the wheel is forward of the backstop when you lift it you don't have to actually take it as high as the back stop to get it in there. You only have to lift it high enough to get it over the lower edges of the cradle. I could see how it might be difficult on a taller vehicle like a truck or SUV. However, unless you get a bike...

This particular bike rack can carry bikes up to 80lbs with up to 5" wide tires. I really like it for heavy bikes as the ramp makes it much easier to load and unload your bikes.

We also do not have a bike rack that has a ramp for a single bike. With that being said, we do have a 2-bike option that comes with a ramp. For that route, I recommend the Yakima OnRamp # Y96FR (for 1-1/4" hitches) or the # Y88DJ (for 2-inch hitches). The great thing about the OnRamp in addition to the included ramp is that you will not have to purchase...

Depending on how far down your fenders go there's a strong chance of damaging them when using a wheel mounted system.

The Elliptigo has a 54" wheelbase which is within parameters for the OnRamp. The clamp would attach to the handlebar upright. The thing is fitting the e-bike on the rack at the same time.

We sell so many Yakima racks that if that was a legit concern I am confident we would have heard of it. Where did you see this?
