Question:

Do you have a set of replacement cradles and straps for my Yakima Bighorn 4 bike rack? I see King Joe cradles but I dont know if they will work. Thank you.

We do have the replacement rubber straps for your Yakima BigHorn Bike Rack with part # 8890221, however the replacement cradles are no longer manufactured by Yakima. Since this particular rack is no longer in production, your best option is really going to be with a new rack if your existing cradles are damaged.

For a hanging-style rack similar to the BigHorn I recommend taking a look at the Yakima RidgeBack 4 Bike Rack # Y02458. This rack features anti-sway cradles to provide excellent bike stability and TriggerFinger release buttons that allow you to quickly fold the arms down for storage when the rack is not in use.

I have attached a short video demonstration on this bike rack that you can also check out.
